The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

lib media tried to spin it as “Florida is teaching that slavery was good because it taught trades”…which was and is a bald faced lie. - Dope

Did you know that in Florida you are not allowed to say the word gay. It is so bad there, the NAACP had to put a travel advisory that it is not safe for blacks to go there.


The deep south got it's slave codes from Barbados. Sons of aristocrats who didn't inherit went to the Caribe and established slave plantations for the Sugar cane - sweets for the table in Britain ( among other things). They , inn turn, had sons who went to the Carolinas and brought their harsh slave codes with them. By 1750 those slave codes were the norm and spread through the south. Slaves were taught trades so you could make money off of them. It was all money - nothing beneficial except by accident.
