At least in NYC, NEVER forget is 24 years.

Well that's some racist, Islamophobic garbage.

[SlowwHand]

Why do you think so? At least I started the thread this time.

"Hmmm the citizens of a city where terrorists killed 3000 of their own don't care that they just elected a mayor who practices the ~same~ religion as the terrorists!!! How can that be??? It must be because they forgot, unlike me, some ****aroo from Texas."

[SlowwHand]

I see. It's the opinion of a Texaphobic. Ok.

160 years ago, Texans killed 365,000 Americans because they hated American freedom (the freedom to not be a slave, that is). Can you blame me?

Actually all the 9-11 attackers were males. So it was forgotten as soon as Giuliani identified as male.

As usual, bastardizing history.

7/10. Good, but can do better.

Well... I guess nobody that has a religion should ever get elected since ALL religions have caused death and destruction...

Did you happen to see Mamdani's acceptance speech on CNN, or elsewhere?
Even Atheists, Socialists and Furries should be concerned. That encompasses most at Poly. CNN was and they embody all of the aforementioned.

Sorry, man, but it's just true. Texas hated American freedom.

In [America], the people have formed themselves into a great sectional party, now strong enough in numbers to control the affairs of each of those States, based upon an unnatural feeling of hostility to these Southern States and their beneficent and patriarchal system of African slavery, proclaiming the debasing doctrine of equality of all men, irrespective of race or color-- a doctrine at war with nature, in opposition to the experience of mankind, and in violation of the plainest revelations of Divine Law. They demand the abolition of negro slavery throughout the confederacy, the recognition of political equality between the white and negro races, and avow their determination to press on their crusade against us, so long as a negro slave remains in these States.

...

We hold as undeniable truths that the governments of the various States, and of the confederacy itself, were established exclusively by the white race, for themselves and their posterity; that the African race had no agency in their establishment; that they were rightfully held and regarded as an inferior and dependent race, and in that condition only could their existence in this country be rendered beneficial or tolerable.

That in this free government all white men are and of right ought to be entitled to equal civil and political rights; that the servitude of the African race, as existing in these States, is mutually beneficial to both bond and free, and is abundantly authorized and justified by the experience of mankind, and the revealed will of the Almighty Creator, as recognized by all Christian nations; while the destruction of the existing relations between the two races, as advocated by our sectional enemies, would bring inevitable calamities upon both and desolation upon the fifteen slave-holding states.

5% of all Southern states had any slaves.
Blacks, Native Americans or whoever.
It's not like the North didn't have Irish,Chinese or whoever as indentured servants, paying customer stores. There have always been slaves. Pharaohs didn't build their own tombs.
Think what you want, but the average person couldn't have cared less about the slavery issue.

Indeed, Texan hatred of freedom and equality was above average.

This has to be in the top 1% of most retarded posts in poly history.
