You really are a moron who is ignorant of history, Bonehead Bob. All you have to do is look at the US census of southern states (or even northern slave states like Delaware) to see that the census takers differientiated between black slaves and free blacks. You will also see in those census records where free blacks sometimes owned slaves themselves.
Right here in Beaufort County, we had two thriving communities of free blacks prior to the War Between the States, one at Keysville, north of Washington, and the other a grouping of blacks who owned small farms in the eastern part of the county. There was even a shipyard on the waterfront in downtown Washington owned by a free black man. While you are correct about slaves, you ignore the free blacks, who generally had more rights in the south than free blacks in the north. That was because of the draconian "Black Codes" of many northern states of the period that greatly suppressed the rights of free blacks. Indeed, the harshest was probably Illinois, which passed a statute in the 1850s that prohibited black people from even living in the state. Bonehead Bob is full of stereotypes, false notions, and conspiracy theories but what he is constantly short on is facts.

Either you can't read or are ignorant of history, Bobbie. The words you get your panties in such a twist over were written in 1861 by a very prominent black historical figure, Frederick Douglass and he uses terms that were common and non-controversial at the time. Maybe you should read Douglass' autobiography, which I have, an enlightening account of being born into slavery, escaping, teaching himself to read, and becoming a top leader of the abolitionist movement. Douglass wrote of blacks serving as soldiers in the Confederate army in addition to cooks.
And you seem not to know the difference between a free black and a slave. In the South in 1861, 20% of blacks were free blacks and indeed, 10% of free blacks owned slaves themselves. While the quote from Douglass uses the "colored people" term, it is not one that I use myself. However, a virtually identical term "people of color" is currently in wide use by the left today.

Many black southerners were in the Confederate army. 20% of southern blacks in 1861 were free blacks and they were as interested in defending their country as southern whites. The military pension rolls of southern states in the 1890s confirm that. Since your ideology will not accept such facts, maybe you will listen to one of the great black abolitionists of the period, Frederick Douglass, who wrote in 1861:
"It is now pretty well established, that there are at the present moment many colored men in the Confederate army doing duty not only as cooks, servants and laborers, but as real soldiers, having muskets on their shoulders, and bullets in their pockets, ready to shoot down loyal troops, and do all that soldiers may to destroy the Federal Government and build up that of the traitors and rebels. There were such soldiers at Manassas"

This is NOT "a loophole". Private individuals are not gun dealers, and this is just a way to criminalize people who don't keep up with all this stuff. It is also a way that tyrants can track down who has guns. Ask Hitler or Stalin.
BUt the most important thing is that Congress, which is the branch of government that is supposed to make policy, has discussed this several times and always rejected it. The executive branch is just supposed to just carry out policy, but this is a power grab where the Biden regime are trying to make policy. That is just one more assault on democracy by Fuehrer Biden.

I understand that you are a far left lemming who cannot comprehend anything outside of your far left narrative, and that you have a real problem even understanding terms and keeping them straight. For example, you repeatedly post about "the boarder" (a person who rents a room) when the context seems to apply to "the border" (the line between two countries). You, Bozo Bob, are brainwashed by your narrative and cannot comprehend anything outside of it, and if you want to truly see "nutty" go look in a mirror.
As to the globalists at the WEF, I suspect you are probably fine with one of their current slogans - "You will own nothing and you will be happy".

First, LIttle Bobbie, you need to understand the difference between the terms "globalization" and "globalism". The first is an exonomic phenomenon that involves a great increase in international trade. The second is a totalitarian and elitist political ideology most closely associated with the World Economic Forum in Davos. The globalists have embraced climate alarmism as part of their drive for power, just as Hitler embraced some environmentalist notions as part of his drive for power. WEF leader Klaus Schwab's "Great Reset" book is the 21st century equivalent of "Mein Kampf", a totalitarian roadmap.

You can stop "green" grifters from the cult of climate scientology which is part of globalism. The people of Ontario did it at the polls when they threw out the globalist Liberals by a landslide and replaced them with the anti-globalist Conservatives.
Yes, most of your cult is brainwashed with your science fiction about global warming / climate change, but polls show that even its true believers would not pay much to "stop" it. You blindly follow the self-serving politicians and hack scientists who preach this poppycock. You are like lemmings.

When it comes to leftwing radicals running as Democrats statewide in NC, another one is Allison RIggs running for Supreme Court. Riggs has never worked in the private practice of law or for a prosecutor's office. Until appointed to the bench by Roy Cooperm Riggs career has been with a far left pressure group, the "Southern Coalition for Social Justice" out of Durham. In the lexicon of the left "social justice" is a euphemism for Marxism.

Actually, the real science all along on dealing with a pandemic was based on herd immunity. DUring the time that the WHO was led by an actual doctor, that was their standing plan to deal with a pandemic. That changed when China muscled in Ethiopia's foreign minister Tedros, who had no medical training, to run WHO and his team switched to China's lockdown strategy.
The first western country to take a stand on which strategy to use for Covid was the UK. Initially, Boris Johnson's government was listening to the country's and Europe's leading epidemiologist, Dr. Suneta Gupta of Oxford University, who recommended a herd immunity strategy. Then a second tier epidemiologist, Dr. Neil Ferguson of University College London released a wildly overblown fatality estimate for Covid to the media and declared that it would be much worse unless a strict lockdown were ordered. While Dr. Gupta pointed out lots of false assumptions in Ferguson's estimates, the media damage was done and paniced Johnston's government to take the lockdown approach. Ferguson was nicknamed "Professor Lockdown" by the media, but ultimately had to resign his government advisory role in disgrace when the London media caught him violating his own lockdown to visit his married mistress. The UK was the first western country to jump, and its position influenced both the US and much of Europe. The western world would have been a lot better off if Boris Johnson had stuck with the experienced epidemiologist, Dr. Suneta Gupta, instead of with the glory hunting second stringer Neil Ferguson. Sweden by sticking with herd immunity proved that Gupta was right and Ferguson was wrong. They also proved that the original WHO strategy was right and the one implemented by China-backed Tedros at WHO was wrong.

The problem is that the left has made public health political. For years, the WHO strategy in a pandemic was designed to follow the principles of herd immunity, NOT lockdowns and masks. Then campaigning by the Red Chinese installed the first non-physican to head WHO, and suddenly they switched to the totalitarian Chinese concept of lockdowns.
Public health authorities in Sweden stuck to their guns on using herd immunity instead of lockdowns, and had a much better result on fighting Covid than the countries that followed the Chinese strategy of the WHO. In the US, Florida junked the lockdown / mask approach early and had much better results than those who followed the Chinese strategy to the bitter end like Michigan. As the linked article above shows, the German public health authorities also understeed and informed the politicians that lockdowns do more harm than good and that there was no evidence that masks work, but the politicians would not listen to them and proceeded with the Chinese totalitarian approach. Places like Sweden and Florida did understand true pricinples of public health, unlike the Chinese puppets at WHO and those who followed them.

Well, apparently it was in Germany. When the public health authorities told the politicians that lockdowns did more medical harm than good and there was no valid basis for mask mandates, the politicians ordered them enforced anyway.
Sweden followed the herd immunity public health concept recommended by its public health authorities rather than lockdowns and mask mandates, and Sweden had better results in dealing with Covid than those who did the rigid lockdowns and mask mandates.

So, Bolshevik Bob, you say public health is supposed to be done the way the German government did it by imposing draconian lockdowns and mask mandates when their public health authorities told them the healthwise, the lockdowns did more harm than good and masks were useless?
Prior to the Chinese takeover of the WHO, WHO policies for pandemics was to rely on herd immunity. Under China's guy Tedros, they changed that to China's totalitarian response of lockdowns. Idiot Fauci went along with that.

Realistically, the Democrats in the Senate will block vote against any impeachment of any Biden official, so that is always going to be a dead end street, unfortunately.
The Biden DOJ has charged people with "election interference" for some pretty crazy things like the humorist they convicted for a satire he published that blasted the Democrats for watering down election laws in 2020. In doing so, they have opened the door to prosecute people like Fani Willis, Letitia James, and Jack Smith for much more substantial abuse of power for election interference.
