Mr. Jefferson didn't like the idea of slavery because he understood from
reading Greek classics in GREEK, and from his travels to Greece, that
there's no ROI on slavery. He knew that even though the Egyptians lived on
the African Continent, there isn't a trace of evidence that they ever used
nigger slaves, or even allowed them into the country. The fact that he was
bankrupt was due partly to his KEEPING the slaves, as a favor to them,
because this was a time when releasing them could have been certain death.
The ones he allowed to "escape" were just lucky they weren't caught.
We should have followed his and Abraham Lincoln's advice to release the
niggers and send them back to Africa.
I know you "wiberals" just HATE dictionary definitions, since they're so
confusing and confining and restrictive of your abundant intellects!
So here's the "wiberal"'s definition of nigger:
=============================
Main Entry: nig·ger
Pronunciation: 'ni-g&r
Function: noun
Etymology: alteration of earlier neger, from Middle French negre, from
Spanish or Portuguese negro, from negro black, from Latin niger
Date: 1700
1 usually offensive, see usage paragraph below : a black person
2 usually offensive, see usage paragraph below : a member of any
dark-skinned race
3 : a member of a socially disadvantaged class of persons <it's time for
somebody to lead all of America's niggers... all the people who feel left
out of the political process -- Ron Dellums>
usage Nigger in senses 1 and 2 can be found in the works of such writers of
the past as Joseph Conrad, Mark Twain, and Charles Dickens, but it now ranks
as perhaps the most offensive and inflammatory racial slur in English. Its
use by and among blacks is not always intended or taken as offensive, but,
except in sense 3, it is otherwise a word expressive of racial hatred and
bigotry.
=============================
First of all, even by this "wiberal"'s dictionary's definition, "piece of
trash" ain't a part of the definition.
Second of all, this REALLY insults niggers, because nigger is a nigger's
favorite word, and here this dictionary is telling niggers that whenever
they say "nigger" they must be expressing "racial hatred and bigotry", which
is a dam. "wiberal" LIE.
What is DISGUSTING is that you "wiberals" have taken a perfectly good word,
one which is used by literally billions of people around the world, by our
OWN legal system, in the Latin Language, and by niggers themselves, and
HIJACKED it to mean something that normal people do NOT agree it means,
which is exactly the OPPOSITE of its real meaning as used by the people who
use it the most frequently--niggers.
A FAR more disgusting, hateful, bigoted, and racist word is "wiberal",
because what it describes is a billion times worse than niggers.
"Wiberal"!
