Arrogant? Maybe. Fool.. Umm nope. As far as "deal with it somewhere else"? It is unfortunate I disapoint you. Humm... you almost act like a teenager or a 2x yo with something to prove. What is it exactly that compells you to keep calling me on the carpet?

All I'm asking for is a little humility and restriant from you, Bill, nothing more. |

Did you read my entire rant, or did you just blow it off again? Lets see, had something to do with "indentured servitude" and somethin' like that...
What compells me to call you out? You posting your personal ignorant and admittedly arrogant opinions as fact. Some third party who knows little, if anything about the subject, could be getting a lot of false information from you which will only create more problems. Theres nothing worse than giving out bad information and telling everyone its true.

Indeed, and now for the entertainment. With all due respect Sir.
You are a pompous, raving blowhard with an adept flair for beating your head against a wall repeatedly. If you had spent 1/2 the time looking up definitions and understand what they meant and how they are used then we would not be having this discussion. Quite frankly I don't care what you think because you obviously do not think and I sure as hell don't want you to think for me. So congratulations you passed the poopy head test. Sig Test.

Suddenly realizing that when he turned the wheel right his car went right and when he turned let the car turned left. Stunned by this epiphanatic revelation Fastback 86 did not realize that when he stepped on the brake pedal the car slows down and sped through the red light. 84Bill was then hit head on by another dubass driver who does not pay much attention to details, Annoyed but unharmed by safety restraints, 84Bill put his car in reverse, adjusts his tinfoil hat and left Fastback 86 in a twisted mass of smoking wreckage.

I go to the trouble to make a educational, intellegent, logical, rational, and well thought out arguement. Bill calls names. Guess we know who won this round. See you next round Bill. Try to put up an actual fight next time, if its not too much trouble to actually read, think about, and respond to what someone writes.

Tell ya what. If you see an article about servitude open a thead about it because in all honesty I would like to explore it and I will behave. I kinda want to distance myself from toaddsters thread. Deal? Good day Sir.

Not in this case. If you were to use only the word 'servitude,' then that would be correct. It is defined as Slavery. In this case, we are talking about 'Indentured Servitude.
As defined by Webster's Encyclopedic Unabriged Dictionary of the English Language: "Indentured Servant:" A person who came to America and was placed under contract to work for another over a period of time, usually seven years, esp, during the 17th to 19th centuries. Generally, indentured servants included redemptioners, victims of religious persecution, persons kidnapped for the purpose, convicts, and paupers. [1665 - 75] "Slave:" A person who is the property of and wholly subject to another. Not the same thing. Now before you go pointing out the part that says "persons kidnapped for the purpose," thats like a bogus tax right off. Slave owners called them "Indentured Servants" (incorrectly, I might add) because it sounds nicer than "Slaves." It looks better to say that you have an indentured servant, a respectable position, rather than a slave. Its like writting off that week long trip to Hawaii as a business expense when you only spent 2 hours in a seminar. Its BS for the sake of personal gain or saving face. |

Indentured servants were SLAVES!! "By 1620, the Virginia Company had organized an effective system that enabled poorer Englishmen to sail for America. These Englishmen, often skilled workers that were victims of England's widespread unemployment, considered America as the Land of Opportunity. Company agents, as well as private recruiters, impressed Brits with promises of land and other benefits for several years of servitude. According to agents, benefits included, travel, trade, and land. Typically, the Virginia Company sent servants over to Virginia to be "sold" to planters, who would reimburse the Company for the servants' passages. More often than not, the indentured servants were shocked by their new conditions. Rather than finding venues in which they could practice their profession, like gardens and orchards, overseers marched servants out to the fields. Many died, attempted to return, or ran away. In addition to mistreatment, many servants also encountered contract extension, a popular punishment of planters for rowdy indentures. However, even the worst human abuses did not take the mortal tolls that the mere climate of Virginia claimed. The temperate springs and falls, and sweltering summers in the New World, created a market for fresh servants."

Kidding who, me or you? I'm not kidding with you Todd, you and others like you really scare me but that will not stop me from running you into the ground until you remit your contempt for me. I did not warant such an attack but you kept calling me on the carpet an now you look like the town idiot. So please stop fooling yourself because you are not fooling me. I would like to say.
Congratulations Toad, you win the boobie prize.
Now go away and untwist your areolas, unless of course you are enjoying it as much as I am.
