is it just the pilgrims or the quakers who were into that?

Where was I during slavery? Oh I don't know. Probably tending to the big cotton plantation I had in another life in southern Georgia.
Honestly. Sometimes these questions amaze me.
How 'bout you. What where you doing between 1855 and 1865?

actually black slavery really didn't come into the united states until the late 1500's early 1600's . But they did have Native American slaves. and mainly it was the Pilgrims that used them as such...not sure about the Quakers though..i think they were against it

Well During SLAVERY, I was hiding out in East LA !! I was kicking back 40's with my boys. You see during that time I was cruising around in my 4 horse Wagon, You should have seen it. I had spinners on my wheels. Ha me some big ole 50 inch rims. I lowered the bed down to where it was like 2 inches off the ground. It was Tight !!! Anyhow, Me and my boys were rollin all over LA just shooting it up keepin our pimp hands strong, You know Fun stuff. But then ya know we like woke up one day and ..... well we was getting to old for that stuff so we decided it was time to like........ PARTY !!!
But then it was time for us to kinda like grow up and get jobs. So we all moved to New York were we went to work on the floor on Wall Street. So like it was all good. But that slavery thing had to go. SO me and my boys just pulled our money together and we went do South to the land of cotton, old times there are ne'r forgotten, Look Away, Look Away, theres a Fat Girl..... Ah yes those were the days. Anyways.... Me and my boys went down south, Sweated alot cause it was hot and went around and purchased all the slaves with our own money. OVernight we became the biggest slave owners in the World. After we bought up every last slave we went back up North and it was like...... PARTY !!!! and then we called Abe up on our Cell Phones. (Abraham Lincoln... He was on SPRINT, we were on NEXTEL and back in the days that call cost us an arm and a leg) But we was like Hey Abe dude what is we gonna do with all these slaves ?? Abe was all like well Let my people go !!! so we was like ok Dude Bet... So we had another party, we had strippers there, 40's galore.... Man I tell you that was the Party of all Parties. and then we let them go. Civil war ended and then we had another Party.
Look if anyone asks you were I was at during slavery ..... You just tell them I was in Alaska or something ok ?? I dont think the statue of limitations is up on a couple of things yet.

I think we are facing economic slavery opposed on the third world and lower classes. We are here watching Oprah and watching MTV - Ohh and answering questions on yahoo.
