Slave Trade

[fenir]

wow
either you guys are totally ignorant or i dont even have the words

i suggest you read up on what slavery was like and what the slaves had to suffer. if you cant read watch Roots, Amistad etc

it may be somehitng that did happen in history that doesnt mean it need to be included in a game. what next ... concentration camps in world war 2 games??????

this thread should be deleted

WOW,

A few things, we where not there!

And we like to play historical.
And there have been more white slaves than blacks in europe, traded for alot longer too.
WHite slavery still exists today, in africa and the Middle east. I would hope, we aren't part of that either.

Slavery is a fact of everyones past. No need to hided like a coward from it imho. And in some instances it was legal protection from debts. A bonded person. Slavery.
Admittedly, by my own values it is disgusting. But, i temper that with knowledge of different time, different values.

And slavery is not all bad. Some where good, some where bad. And like today, they all push the bad.
We have all seen the media and the bleeding wimps, push the worst excess.
In stead of telling the truth and saying, oh this happened, but mostly was all good. That is not saying it was. I am just pushing a point.

And i don't bear the shame of it, because i didn't do it. In my time such things are consider bad. (Though i have to admit, having someone do the house chores would be nice.)

ANd i certainly cannot judge someone from over 100 years ago because i disagreee with them, to tell them, you are wrong. Different time, different place, I was not born.
So I am not so arogrant, as to apply my vaules to a time when EVERYONE did it.


Now where do you get off judging yesterdays vaules by your rules today. How Socialist. I guess because we disagree, you will have us all shot?

Please save the crying for someone that cares. Because we just want to play a game based on history.
We leave the guilt game and blame of politicians where it belongs. In the toilet.

i suggest you read up on what slavery was like and what the slaves had to suffer.

I really dont care. Lots of people suffered. Perhaps in stead of just crying over your colour coded Slavery, you could actually read some history into the laws that protected slaves, in nearly every country. And the penalties if they where violated?
Including, The Bible, and the Qur'an.
You can go back to Greece 4000 years ago and their laws, all the way to 19th Century Europe.
Also, in many cases, free people suffered more than slaves. Perhaps read up on that?

So please, if you need to be indignate, please show it for all, and not you choosen group.


Sincerely
