Originally the freed slaves were supposed to get 40 Acres and a Mule. We have lots of wide open land if the homeless descendants of freed slaves qualify for 40 Acres and a Mule. Back at the time they considered 40 Acres and a Mule fair.
Meanwhile, we need to strive for equality for all men, and we need to have good human rights, and good civil rights, for all men, and I support the ACLU. I also support the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and the Civil Rights Act of 1968. I support equal rights for all men.
Beyond that, I am a Christian, and I support the Golden Rule to love our neighbors and to treat other people the way we wish to be treated ourselves, and I support obeying the 10 Commandments, etc.
No one in my family tree ever owned slaves, and my ancestors were Cowboys and Indians here in the West, at the time of Lincoln I had family in Madison, Indiana, and in Carrollton, Kentucky, before that they lived in New York, etc, my family tree never owned slaves.
Slavery was horrible, and certainly the freed slaves were entitled to something, and 40 Acres and a Mule was one suggestion.
Salute,
Tony V.
