Question: Your thoughts on American slavery? 

Answer: Well, it happened.  There is nothing ANYONE can do about that.  But it was wrong.  Just like it was wrong for the Egyptians to use slave labor to build the pyramids.  Just like it is wrong for those crappy little third world countries to use children for slave labor.  And so on.  It is NOT just an American problem, but a world problem.  Always has been, always WILL be!
