  • St. Columbus Day???

  • "Do Jews have any ethnic holidays? No?"

    Um, actually they have SEVERAL more holidays than Christians do. By a mile.

    "The Jews have disappointed me."

    No, no sir. You've disappointed all of us.

    Damn. Sometimes ignorance just hurts.

  • You can't take a little sarcasm? You can hear it in his voice. You guys are nothing but little followers, they say he's bad and all 638 comment on how he is bad. Do a little research. Tyt these guys just love to stir shit up so they can boost their channel and you guys just fall for it

  • lou dobbs is from a different time. time for him to be put away.

  • How about you celebrate ~ you can't drive woth F--k (oops first car~ third nation~ nuff said). Oh Oh Oh or better yet a holiday that celebrates immigration with a resounding no? Hears a life~ ( ever walk behind a sudan? to mention a few)? Wakey Wakey , ain't working out. Learn to fucking drive while I'm at it ya refugee's~ not PC but truthful, put some peep in your step and fucking work minus the handouts.

  • Most americans dont know that America is a latin word thats comes from Americo an italian sailorman.

    and that also central america and south america are also americans

  • every person has a ancestory from some other place irish, italians, mexicans, scottish, asians, blacks, so who is he talking about the briitsh? I dont get this dobbs tool except native americans, spainards, mexicans who were in american but thats dosent count only when the brits came then it counts. Makes no sence!

  • also another thing about 1:20 his suggestion of a where all the same kind of day is actualy as anti-rasist as possible.

    religion is the most nasty devisive thing we have on this planet a secular unity kind of day would be better.. but impractical logisticaly for the reasons i've detailed previously..

  • 0:20 fuck get over it ya woman!

    dont be so bleeding politicaly correct!

    the man is allowed to go bah humbug as much as he wants

    personaly i think its easier to have some religious bullshit name insead of ""Fuck you im using my legal entierlment ot slag of today" -day

    anyway if everyone does not share the same holiday that makes things easier...

    universal mega holidays just means no one wants to work and everything just stops... which is bad.

  • @ZerqTM 1:20 i meant! ah fuck it!

  • Instead of ethnic pride,we should have ethnic shame. Ethnic Shame should be a day when all ethnic groups think about all the horrors the other groups had done to other groups.

  • Bottom line:This fellow is seething within with hatred, resentment and xenophobia -and it shows.His rationale for spouting his odious opinions is loyalty to the U.S. above all. What the imbecile fails to realize is that U.S. is not the monochrome rural state he hails from. It is he who is not a full "American".We who live in the "real America" have no problem with St. Pat, Chinese New Yearr, Columbus, or Rosh Hashanah.

  • We’re Americans because we can handle and celebrate such diversity. If American culture were meant to have remained simply “WASP” culture, there would have been no Westward expansion, no Louisiana Purchase, no Florida annexation, etc. This man is a troglodyte and he deserves to be called out – because he is certainly merciless in using his soapbox for the most shameful and unabashed closet racism.

  • Rosie Odonne;ll's "ChingChong" was worse....

  • The Young TURDS

  • he didn't say anything racist. But i really don't understand what his problem is? Is it that the state give holidays for various ethnic groups?

    ie: do americans get a day off work on st patricks day etc? As far as i knew, in america you only had american type holidays like independance day etc?

    So why would you care? The only holiday in the US that i know of thats to do with 'ethnics' is christmas which is a christians holiday. If he complained about christmas i could see his point.

  • HAHAHAHAHAHAA WAT A DICKHEAD HAHAHAHAHAHAHAA.

  • A weak attack from YT because Lou doesn't support illegals.

  • @jaydenfre2413 a weak attack that shows how dumb Lou is, is a fun attack imo

  • @redryan20000 Unfortunately, This one only showed how dumb YT is.Hope it was just as Fun for you.

  • @jaydenfre2413 So you're saying it didn't show how dumb Lou Dobbs is? ok, gotcha.

    LOL

  • @redryan20000 Lou is right, Cinco De Mayo is not a Holiday in Mexico,certainly not the most important one like Mexican independence.So Why Do we in the U.S. celebrate It? it's simply to divide the country when we should all think of ourselves as American ,Not different races or nationalities.But Division in mind creates political division and Divided we fall while the few in power benefit.

  • @jaydenfre2413 bwahahahaha. you're right! we need an american holiday....how about one where we all think of ourselves as Americans! we dont have one of those right now...and how bout them jews, do they have a holiday? nope guess they don't. how bout a chinese holiday? you know, st....jong wong tau day?

    those all make sense amirite

  • @redryan20000 Oh ,I was actually discussing the point of Lou being against ethnic Holidays.Isn't that why YT is against what Lou is saying or are they (YT) just trying to say since Lou wasn't really trying to think up actual ethnic holidays on the spot to make his point that he is a fool on the actual point he is making about ethnic Holidays?

    Are people really so easily fooled by such propaganda?I thought YT was better than Fox.

    Guess not.

  • @jaydenfre2413 no i guess not. you've yet to disprove my argument that lou dobbs is dumb and TYT is justified in making fun of him.

  • @jaydenfre2413

    No together you fall and the few benefit. In america you are ruled by an oligarchy predominantly in wall street, and why? Because you all agree. You have no socialism, no left and right. All you have is centre right (democrats) far right (republicans) and extreme far right (tea party).

  • @srspower Together they all fall because they are all divided in mind.That's what you get for being a puppet of propaganda holidays. and not thinking for yourself.

  • Don't they report on something more interesting?

  • @TenderTrap86 you don't think st jing wong tau is interesting?

  • dobb is a part of the vast army of worthless nasty turds who are racist moronic sick old buggers who won't take care of themselves and so are senile and overweight and arthritic this classic douchebag and poophead is represenative,

    of elderly people who don't work and live off of social security welfare type payments(thanks to their huge numbers there will not be any money left in the till when people in their 30s retire)

  • Este Old man is ridiculous. Fuck you!!!

  • San Patricio's going to kick your ass Lou Bobbs.

  • so big deal!!!!

    gotta get rid of martin luther king day, the only holiday that celebrates a person...

    MLK day is when blacks stay home and whites go to work....

    what 's worse is columubus day is becoming the target of racitst blacks and hispanics.

  • Every day can be a holiday! It's called being competitive in a global economy!

    Think of the stimulating effect it would have on the economy through alcohol sales and DUI arrests!

  • THE JEWS HAVE DISSAPOINTED ME...  SLAY THEM!

  • lou slobbs

  • I am from Mauritius and there is no St Mauritius day.

  • I am Mauritian :D

  • How was this man not fired from CNN?

  • Is Lou Dobbs basically saying he is anti- Catholic? Has he not heard of 4th of July?

    I'm not American and I have heard of it.

  • this guy (young jerks) is a pussy and about the dumbest piece of shit. Pathetic

  • This Young Turk thinks he's soooo smart, it's seems everybody is wrong except himself of course. I never seen him say or do anything positive, only rip and flame everyone he speaks of. I wonder if there's anyone he does approve of? doesn't seem like it.

  • @HypoLuxor

    He tears up conservatives who are total asses and people who are idiots to begin with. this is a talk show that talks about news stories, and he and his co-workers make their own comments from what they hear from said stories as well as try to help people understand them in a way mainstream news doesn't. It's no news show, they say that clearly enough, but their more worthy of the lable "news show" than most mainstream media.

  • PERFECT - just what I was thinking.

  • Comment removed

  • LOU DOBBS is such a hater

  • I think its a shame, we had one person on the side of the american citizens and now they have managed to shut him up. Let O'Bama prove he was born in America. But that wouldnt go with all the things our Goverment has planned for us. Even when we are forced against our will to form a new world order you will never convince all Americans to stay quit about all the lies we are feed. American people are asleep, we are going to change and its not in the way most Americans can think. Its time to seek

  • lou lackofbrains is beyond retarded... he makes kids wit downsydrome look like einstein

  • All those St. Whatever days are religious Catholic Holidays, not really ethnic... Once again this guy and the right can't tell between ethnic races and Religion.... He is beyond fucking stupid.

  • I wonder if the fat guy doing this show goes to sleep wondering why he has never been approached to do even a small show on a news network. Let me lay out the outline of "the Young Turks"... 1) Watch a professional news commentary show from the night before. 2) Pick out a few points. 3) Pick the cheapest news background possible for your show. 4) Talk about what you heard 5) Imagine yourself as a journalist. Wonder why no news networks approach you.

  • Hey asshole, you're not funny and no one likes this pointless wanna be channel. He asked if there were any Jewish ETHNIC holidays dipshit you listed Jewish RELIGIOUS holidays moron.

  • Hey asshole, you're not funny and no one likes this pointless wanna be channel. He asked if there were any Jewish ETHNIC holidays dipshit you listed Jewish RELIGIOUS holidays moron.

  • Lou Dobbs is not a real journalist, so don't worry if he sounds like an idiot

  • you miss 5 de mayo pendejo

  • His a fuckin racist !!!

  • Lou Was kidding, and you all took it so hard because you lack confidence as a race. Hispanic's everywhere are offended, heres something most of you don't understand EVERYBODY GETS OFFENDED, AND NOBODY HAS A RIGHT TO NOT BE! To all illegals yes ILLEGALS if you don't have a green card then that's EXACTLY what you are! You come over here demanding the same treatment as everybody else and ignore the process of becoming a Citizen LEGALLY Dont bitch about breaking your backs for low wages your illegal

  • ethnic holidays you fuck. passover and chanukah are religious holidays. everytime i watch one of your videos you suck

  • @bstock21 It all sounds good until you see a Black,Indian,Hispanic or Asian claim to be a Jew AND THEN you'll think about whether or not it's REALLY just a religion or an ethnic group. And yes I know there are Black Jews.

  • Sounds great, Asian Holiday!

  • What is America? A mixture of races and wether you like it or not it will remain that way for ever. People simply never want and shouldn't forget were they come from. Their is nothing wrong with celebrating your ethnic background especially when its a rich culture like the Irish and the Mexican cultures are. The only Thing America Celebrates is their savage rape of the land and indians on Thanks giving! When they came here like parasites. Im glad lou dogshit is on his way to die.

  • This is racist? You guys are a joke! 178 days until your Socialist party LOSES BIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIG TIME !!!!!!!! HAHAHHAHHAH!! SO SORRRRY!!

  • he didnt say we dont have any american holidays plus it sounded like a joke. what , you get some sand in your vagina?

  • Sad to see an Irishman being racist. What a jerk.

  • What an idiot

  • lous name sounds chines lol

  • if we want equality amongst people in the us i agree with lou whole heartedly why do we celebrate all these ethnic holliday's when we are supposed to be unified. Being very irish and southern it makes no sense why we don't just all accept the fact we are american not irish american, african american, asian, from the middle east NO welcome to america be proud or get out.

  • i speak from experience, mexicans and all the other races respect and also celebrate the fourth of july and they buy just as many fireworks and are very proud to be in this country so why not also respect their TRADITONS because in reality thats all they are.

    they arent "piss the white hillbilly off" day theryre just traditions that you dont have to celebrate but it would just be civil to respect.

    lou dobbs is a racist idiot and now that he is starting a political carreer hes changing his tune

  • you just uttered a few scary words my friend. fractional reserve, jews, federal reserve, government, tax.

    I will pray for your safety tonight : )

  • Does he think...

    That he's an idiot?

  • you are stretching his meaning... he means the stupid insignificant holiday ,non religious ones..

    i agree...

  • You proved my point .....thank you sir

  • 4th of July is 'Insignificant' along with Independant Day,Columbus Day, etc. The only issue that is "stupid" and "insignificant" is Lou Dobbs! What a Jackass!

  • sounds somewhat derogatory though. too cynical, sarcastic?

  • lou dobbs is the biggest douche bag in the universe whose not even a journalist, and he makes facts up

  • @michweinersuckmydick he's married to a Mexican American women. Go figure

  • @wencesbahena i know...the reality is Lou Dobbs make up facts...need proves? ask me

  • @michweinersuckmydick oh i know. According to him most of the crimes are done by illegals

  • old fuck.

  • He doesn't have a point - but why are the ethnic holidays of certain races universally celebrated by Americans, and not others?

    (I'm Irish, and honestly I'm happy that Irish-Americans gave us our National Holiday, but it is a little weird.)

  • The subject matter is funny, but damn that guy has the personality of a brick.

  • It is great that TYT came along to give stupid ppl stupid information from a "null/empty set," softy, fatty, whimpy type guy called cenk. There is no substance to this guy whatsoever!

  • Ladies and Gentlemen I give you the leader of the Republican Party

  • You obviously know nothing about the man. He's pro choice, pro gay marriage, pro middle class, for pulling out of NAFTA, pro public education, anti preemptive war, and takes a strong position on a lot of issues that the GOP and Democrats ignore. Get your head out of your ass before label someone who you don't know about. Just because he's strong on his immigration stance doesn't negate all of the other issues that he brought to the table. Go watch American Idol and eat your big mac.

  • I love how you label me a "conservative" just because I like some of Lou's ideas. I voted for Obama if you must know. You should read Lou's books "Exporting America" and "Independents Day" to find out where he's coming from. He's not another right wing lunatic like the media makes him out to be. It's also very easy to do a net search and find out that he was against Bush's amendment to ban gay marriage. It sounds like you are the typical misinformed sheep that listens to whatever the media says.

  • I don't know much about Lou Dobbs but I enjoyed the argument he had with Janet Murguia. It is my understanding that his wife is Hispanic and therefore I am puzzled as to why he is so clueless about certain cultural issues as demonstrated in the segment above.

  • lou hates mexicans so much that he married one.

  • Well american holidays are celebrated for all the wrong reasons..... most americans don't even know the true meaning of christmas,Valentines day, or who really discovered america,any of them......all they know is they got a day off from work and eat turkey and shop........kinda sad they don't know american history

  • @Smackerjacked Valitines is an American Holiday?

  • yes it's celebrated on Feb.14....millions of people flood the flower shops,cards gifts shop etc etc etc....in hopes of pleasing their love one....the reality of it was a man who ran around shooting arrows in peoples hearts and killing them....funny how they turned a murder spree into a romantic hoilday and make money off it eh? the florial industry at it's best sir.

  • I thought it was a world holiday sense it is celebrated in almost all countries.

  • it originated in Rome and brought to the US in the 1800s Sir ....do a search on "where did Valitines day come from?" you'll get pleanty of answers sir

  • ok sir

  • I'm glad this pig is out of CNN.

  • good for lou

  • cenk go fuckyourself....everyones racist huh? well guess what go to turkey or armenia or whatever shithole you crawled out of and see how lovint they are of other cultures

  • lou dobbs racist??? that's unbelievable, like a lovely, pure white ciggarette causing cancer...ridculous!!! lol

  • An important job? All jobs are important; from a cleaning lady to a doctor. Your comment really lets your racism shows. I don't plan on ending racism, Jesus will. p.s. i love you too

  • LMAO

    Dobbs: Is there an asian holiday? like St. Jing Toa Wow?? (Cenk: Oh No!!!)

    You can't write shit like that!!!

  • The video made me laugh, but actually reading the St. Jing Toa Wow day fkn cracked me up!

  • The young jerk in this video is far more racist than Lou Dobbs. All he seems to be concerned about is any comment made about any race. There will always be someone who hates another because of their race, but scum bags like the young jerk dont seem to understand that and instead try to make a living from other peoples comments. Try doing something productive you LOSER!!!!

  • everyone has a niche. If thats his, he has the right to highlight offensive and insensitive comments. just as much Lou Dobbs has the right to make them. That is the beauty of America. Agreed?

  • Agreed.

  • Haha this host is such a cracker! Cinco de Mayo is not a ethnic holiday! Only white people think it is. Barely anyone in Mexico celebrates Cinco de Mayo. Racist? White people celebrate Cinco de Mayo as an excuse to get drunk. It's more like this host doesn't know what is and isn't a holiday.

  • We should toss the turks out of the country!!!

  • Why?! I'm not Turkish but why?!

  • when someone says someone is better than another person for their race or gender what do we do?

    we appoint her a supreme court judge.

    when someone says someone got something for their race what do we do?

    allow her to get away with it

    when someone defames someone on the basis of race or heritage what do we do?

    allow her to become secretary of state.

    Sonia Sottomayer

    Geraldine Ferraro

    Hillary Clinton

  • im against christmas now

    its there fucken religion fuck lou dobbs

  • Lou Dobbs has huge balls, and im native american. He stands infront of tough questions, and tough people, because he wants to answer their concern and does care and is not afraid to somehow get to people.

  • Comment removed

  • So, let me get this straight, We have to drop our holidays because we live in America. I thought this was the land where anyone can live there life the way they choose to. Doesn't that mean we can celebrate they way we want as well. Lou Dobbs is a racist. America wouldn't be as great as it is if it wasn't for immigrants. What is the deal with him and ethnic people? Soon he will be saying that we have to give up our food, clothes and the way we dance too. Where does it end.

  • Lou grew up in Idaho along with the Aryan Nation Brotherhood, retired racist L.A., cops, like Mark Furman, who perjured himself at the O.J. Simpson trial which resulted in O.J.'s not guilty verdict. Mark is the resident genius there in Idaho. There are numerous other white supremacist in Idaho as well. Dobbs is so bigoted that he doesn't even try to be covert about it, he just blurts out racist beliefs. In Lou's defense he obviously has no ancestry from outside the continental United States.

  • 1: Barely anyone in Mexico celebrate Cinco de Mayo. More white people celebrate it than Mexicans.

    2. Mexican and Hispanic is NOT A RACE. Only idiots think it is. Many Mexicans are just as white as.......white people.

  • Um White and black isn't a race either. So whats your point?

  • Caucasion and African are. Hispanic isn't. Latino isn't. Mexican Isn't. it makes me wonder if you even know what "Mexican" is.

  • Sorry your wrong, There is no African race, nor Caucasian. Caucasians got that label from middle eastern people. Thats what they called all people from the other side of the Caucasus Mountains. And African was a term used for anyone from Africa. Unfortunately African Americans started using that label because we dont know which tribe we are from in Africa, And as for what a "Mexican" is. Its a national origin label. Just like someone from France is French. Understand Now?

  • Yeah you're right, how bout I word this differently? Caucasionoid and Negroid, the scientific terms. If you think about it, you bringing black or white in is sort of irrelevant. It's about Hispanics, not blacks and whites. I'm stating how can one be racist against hispanics when hispanic isn't a race.

  • You can use the same argument against those that are racist against "black people" How can one be racist against blacks when black isn't a race. It doesn't matter. Any time you have a hatred for someone that is of another race, national origin, religion, creed, sex, or sexual orientation, other than your own is a racist. Whether they get the race or anything else right, doesn't matter.

  • They can be PREDJUDICE against hispanics, I'm stating racist is the wrong term. I'm a Mexican American that thinks we should be stricter on the boarder, does that make me racist? We're of the same Cultural background, I honestly think we either need to A.) Give Amnesty. Or B.) GIve strict punishments to breaking this country's laws.

  • Racist: a person with a prejudiced belief that one race is superior to others

    Prejudice: An adverse judgment or opinion formed beforehand or without knowledge or examination of the facts.

    Just because you believe in Amnesty or strict punishment doesn't make you either one. Its your thoughts of the person or race or whatever that determans if you are a racist or if you have a prejudice against someone. And Lou Dobbs has proven time and again that he is both. He hates.

  • Lou Dobbs doesn't mind holidays that spring from Calvinism... He wants a Calvinist America. The blacks are evil people who are one step from the jungle as is proved by their worship of Obama, Dobbs intimates, and these Latinos are mongrels who are Catholics... now the savages are gaining ground on the Calvinists and will ruin America... this is what Dobbs says.

  • dont worry " LATINOS IN AMERICA" is going to air soon. i guess all our problems will be solved. LOU DOBBS is a RACIST, but CNN, supports him in every way....ITS THE AMERICAN WAY.... A FREAKING JOKE...

  • we have ethnic holidays because we're a country of immigrants, dummy.

  • What does Lou Dobbs have against ethnic holidays? A lot apparently. I don't think he deserves to be fired but he needs to clean up his act before he does get kicked off the air.

  • uh ... who did the Mexicans 'conqueror thier' land from? I'm pretty sure they are INDIGENOUS ...

  • So where did those Spanish last names come from?

    Please read a book, read something. Yes, it is true that most of Mexicans and Central Americans are indigenous, and mixed raced with people of Spanish decent. But all land is conquered land, including Mexico (there were other tribes that lived in these areas, there wasn't a central power that controlled all of Mexico, or Central America for that matter). The Spanish conquered that land, then they were kicked out, and then the US took that land.

  • Aw how cute! I was not at all contesting the fact that Mexico is conquered land, I was just asking who you thought they conquered it from considering they (the Mexica tribe) were among those that settled the land. Incidentally, reading books is how I learned the information! That was a good try though..

  • Most Mexicans are not Exactly Indiginous. Most are mixed race, Mestizo. There are some Mexicans that don't have indiginous blood at all. I'm Mestizo. If you go to Argentina the majority of them are white, most of the indiginous population there was wiped out.

  • ethnic holidays brings money to the economy. since ppl are out spending during them

  • Lou, you are a racist through and through....I saw his wife's parents one day on his show and they were obviously mexican. If they came here legally, it would be because Dobbs used his influence.

    We did steal part of their country and they are in the process of reclaiming it through population.

  • Wow and I used to think Lou was ok. There is a jewish holiday.

  • yo this old WASP prick fucking hates catholics? fuck this bitch.

    PS WASP stands for White Anglo-Saxon Protostant.

  • what lou dobbs wifes mexican lady i cant believe ,,jajajajaja

  • It's really fucking hard to believe that Lou Dobbs isn't racist.

  • I know! Im black as hell and lou my muthafucking nigga. Fuck all them dumb ass holidays from Halloween, to Christmas, all that shit means nothing to a G... Young Turks sucks da saltest balls around. somebody please cancel dem niggas all goddamn ready, they some obama shills if u ask me.

  • As a tribute to Lou Dobbs the McDonald's restaurant is announcing the release of a new burger. It's called the McRacial.

  • All of the Holidays are Ethnic.

  • It's really hard to believe that Lou Dobbs isn't racist.

  • This country has put California down like an inferior nationality within itself deeply over the past 6 months.

  • Lou is a racist Pig!, he's not only against immigrants, he's also anti multi-culturalism, he said so the only time he's been invited to the Bill Maher show, this fat ugly bastard hates other cultures and the multi culturalism that makes america such a diverse and beautiful country.

  • How is anti-multiculturalism synonymous with racism?

    The evidence supports that diversity weakens communities.

  • Multiculturalism and diversity SUCK. Beautiful ? LMAO. It's ruining this once great country. Turtles is right on. Minority neighborhoods are crime-ridden war zones, a cancer that spreads whenever they move in and take over. DEATH TO DIVERSITY.

  • lou dobbs is good man the haters dont like his truth

  • this guy a big big ass hole

  • the young turks are ridiculous.

  • OH NO CENK!!!

    I have never seen you flip flop until now...

    I just watched b4 this vid y0ou agreeing with lou dobbs on we should celebrate what we have in common and not our differences and you agreed with the statement he made about not agreeing with columbus day or anyof these person related holidays and you agreed.

    Now you are making fun of him for making the same point you JUST AGREED WITH HIM ON.

    Disapointing cenk i love your show man but this is disapointing

  • So Lou Dobbs is anti-Catholic...nice to be clear ...Saint's days or days or Obligation are days when Catholics go to mass, some may have a drink too.. Few people get a day off work...

  • I get the feeling that Lou Dobbs in particular, and conservative white America in general, feels that white people own this nation and are just renting out space in it to brown people and other ethnics. This man is dripping with bigotry and racial fear and it makes me sick.

  • We built this nation into greatness, minorities are DESTROYING it. Don't like it? LEAVE.

  • Oh shut the fuck up. You just referred to minorities, not immigrants. Some people have legitimate arguments for limiting immigration, but obviously you just have a prejudice against anyone different from yourself. I am a minority, and my freaking great-grandparents were born here.

  • I'll shut the fuck up when every illegal is deported and the southern borders are sealed off with land mines and a 90 foot wall. That's right. I am far superior to you. Don't be jealous now.

  • u are probably a gay man,, and thats ok,, just learn to accept it,,,

  • And you're a racist homophobe with a tiny little dick where your head should be.

  • Lou Dobbs IS A JOKE !!11

  • No you are the one complaining, you LEAVE! Your probably a 4th or 5th generation racist pig which means if we implemented the laws you want in place long ago then your sorry ass wouldn't be here as your great,great,great,great-grand parents wouldn't have been allowed to come here.

  • You built (LOL) That's funny! I guess slavery never happened do respond to this. But your a dumb ass

  • Of all 8,289,782 free persons in the 15 slave states, 393,967 people (4.8%) held slaves. Very few people had slaves, therefore, there were very few slaves. Your grammar stinks. And it's YOU'RE not your. Go back to grade school and try to finish 3rd grade before YOU continue to make yourself look like a DUMB ASS.

  • So what typos happen! I just get tired of whites telling lies. America was built on the backs of non-whites my friend. My grammer might be off but the lies you're telling are off also. Have a nice day

  • There weren't any typos, idiot. And how could the slaves be the only ones that built this country, when they only made up about 4% of the population? All of you white haters are jealous, ignorant and STUPID. And you? Still struggling with 3rd grade.

  • are you really trying to suggest that each slave-owner only had one slave? you're foolish if you truly believe that. obviously the concept of a plantation is beyond your scope of understanding. you can't hide from fact, and the fact is that according to the US census taken just before the civil war there were over 3 million slaves in the united states. please to be doing some research before making yourself look like an idiot where everyone can see you. kthx.

  • Ms. or Mr. pea, HAHA! YOU'RE THE IDIOT. Where in my post did I even imply that each slave owner had one slave? I said 4.8% of slave-owners held slaves. Naybe you should get glasses, or learn to COMPREHEND. Try it. Maybe you'll raise your IQ to minus 10.

  • AnBon YOU said, and i quote: "Of all 8,289,782 free persons in the 15 slave states, 393,967 people (4.8%) held slaves. VERY FEW PEOPLE HAD SLAVES, THEREFORE, THERE WERE VERY FEW SLAVES" i don't need glasses. you, however, may need to make an appointment with an optometrist. in 1860 there were some 3.9 million slaves in the slave states, which would constitute quite a bit more than your bullshit "4%" of the population. dummy.

  • Little pea brain, you are confused, or need a math tutor, or BOTH. 3.9 mil slaves, in 1860, constituted 4% of the total USA population. civilwarhomeDOTcomSLASHpopulat­ion1860DOThtm
