You are saying it is right to lynch a man if they did something (or were accused of doing something) wrong? So it's ok to supersede the American justice system? That's illegal, too, by the way.

They did back in the 1800’s....I watch that Id channel show deadly women every once in awhile..... a woman would murder her husband.... they would have judge, jury, and hang her by that next evening..... it is crazy to imagine doing that stuff in today’s times.

Slave traders raided the shores and kidnapped many Africans.



Also you are not as educated as me on the matter. I have actually taken college courses on the subject.

Some were prisoners of war. Africans did not know what American slavery was. Slavery is Africa and the Middle East ( the Arab slave trade) was more like indentured servitude. Their slaves were still educated and their kids were not born slaves. It was a completely different system. Africans thought it would be the same over here as there. They were not aware of the extremely inhumane system of American slavery. So it was not the same thing. So yes Africans participated but were unaware of the treatment in the Americas. They were unaware of chattel slavery.

Slavery - Wikipedia.
systems of servitude and slavery were common in parts of Africa, as they were in much of the ancient world. In many African societies where slavery was prevalent, the enslaved people were not treated as chattel slaves and were given certain rights in a system similar to indentured servitude elsewhere in the world. The forms of slavery in Africa were closely related to kinship structures. In many African communities, where land could not be owned, enslavement of individuals was used as a means to increase the influence a person had and expand connections.[149] This made slaves a permanent part of a master's lineage and the children of slaves could become closely connected with the larger family ties.[150] Children of slaves born into families could be integrated into the master's kinship group and rise to prominent positions within society, even to the level of chief in some instances. However, stigma often remained attached and there could be strict separations between slave members of a kinship group and those related to the master.[149] Slavery was practiced in many different forms: debt slavery, enslavement of war captives, military slavery, and criminal slavery were all practiced in various parts of Africa.[151] Slavery for domestic and court purposes was widespread throughout Africa.

Your argument is just stupid. If I really need to explain the difference then there is no point.

What I have learned from NASCAR over the last 20 years.

Move to new tracks outside your real fans location and do terrible. Check

Bring in and allow existing morons to run your business into the ground. Check

Have a crackhead ceo. Check

Try to bring in new fans with gimmicks and going green initiative and fail. Check

Provide cookie cutter package to limit the cheating (made NASCAR great) across auto makers. check

Did I miss anything?

I personally have always wanted Bubba to do well and have rooted for him. But, he is way too immature to be taken seriously at this point. Pouring water over a passed out Alex Bowman, making the Denny Hamlin comment, throwing a pity party over his upbringing, etc. Individually, I am sure some things are excusable, but he literally portrays the victim in every single instance. And, to be fair, if we are going to bring race into it, he has his ride because of his color. Earlier this year, a big financial backer came on board to help fund RPM strictly because Bubba is black and the financial backer is, too, and was looking to help a minority.

I hope someone puts him in a wall in 5 laps. Of course the driver who did it would probably be charged with a hate crime.
