Two thoughts:
Secondly, Catho, blacks were enslaving blacks long before whites and Arabs got around to using them for cotton pickin', shuffle dancing, and inspiring Al Jolson vaudeville routines. Only those blacks don't consider themselves blacks, they think of themselves as Hutu or Swahili, or Tutsis. To listen to guilty conscience striken white people, Americans practically invented slavery, rather than acknowledging that it is a scourge which has plagued mankind since the dawn of time even to this day. So get over it. It's over, done, fini, no more, and every other word which denotes finality. Give the whole "Oh woe is the present day black person for his kind have suffered SO much!" That is a reverse form of racism where you excuse every thing about them and strip them of their dignity by relieving them of any responsibility for their lives. Imagine if you did that to your kids. They'd never leave the house or your care since you void any kind of ambition or results from their actions.

You're reading an awful lot of right-wing rhetoric into that one factually correct little statement by catwho.
Overcompensate much?
