This comes under the catagory of "who gives a darn". There are as many slaves buried under Virginia's dirt as there are any other classification of people including native americans and white settlers. That is what happens when people die. They get buried. Why make a big deal out of it.

What?? Maybe you racists don't care but his decendents might. This man was inslaved, beaten, and forced to serve his master - white racist Thomas Jefferson. Jefferson also raped his female slaves.

We need to find this man grave and do what we need to do to make things right.

Thomas Jefferson was a slave owner. He raped Sally Hemings and had children with her. Those are facts "Robbin-em".

If he was alive today he would be impeached from office and tried as a terrorist. Rightfuly so I might add.

TJ was like todays black males. Get them pregnant and then do not marry them. At least he supported the babies and their baby-momma which is better than what happens today. No wefare, ADC, WIC, etc back in those days.

You ignorant racist. You know nothing about history or the Black community. Jefferson didn't support anyone - he held human beings against their will, he sold and traded people. He forced them to work on his property in exchange for their life.

Yes, he was indeed a Great President!!! We have all heard the biased slant of black history as schools attempt to cram it down out throats all of Feb. and for most of the remaining school year.

He wasn't that great of a man and Black history is very real and very interesting! I have been doing a little work as a substitute teacher and let me tell you even with all my education I have learned a lot lately.

There is so much we don't know about these men that America puts on their money and on their Mt Rushmore. I encourage you to do some indenpendent reading. You will find that Thomas Jefferson wasn't all that.

Point at hand is, you have stated on many posts, that the "war ended long ago" and to "let it go" that "white people are stuck on a war over 100 years ago". Fact of the matter is the slave is dead, slavery is over, and people are only being oppressed by themselves. GET OVER IT

People are being oppressed by the government of today. This is just one of the things that Thomas Jefferson said would happen. By the way HG, these men are just that MEN....there is only one God.

YOU a teacher???...responsible for the shaping young minds with your twisted sense of reality. Propagating reverse racism with all your white hate-mongering and race baiting no doubt. That is a scary thought

I do believe if you removed the words racism, victims, guns, oppressed, slaves from your vocabulary, you would have nothing to say. I see a lot of your posts in a variety of subjects and your posts all sound the same….and basically say nothing. Well at least you keep most of us amused.

HG
I can see you found a post to get you back on your rants again. To your credit I haven't seen anything about reperations from you and so far that would be a good thing. The 40 acres and a mule were a political promise. Not as binding as the twenty some treaty's the Imperial Government wrote my decindents but broken just as easy and not enforced. The US does have some ugly history but lets not beat everyone who looks white over the head with it. Get on with bigger and better things.

Anybody want to bet that HG has one of those chain license plate holders to symbolize that he is still a slave?
