1996 is far from 1776.

@Israelilove the original requirement of property applied only to 'real' property, which according to english common law is the land or anything attached physically to it, like a house. Slaves were considered personal property, as opposed to real property.

But virtually all slave owners were also land owners. :P

@Israelilove And they were also giving out plots of land like crazy, so it's not as elitist as it sounds. This video overall is a pretty big strawman, no one wants the technology to return to this level, or the various injustices that were present. People want constitutionality back.

@BloodskullMannoroth slave ownership was not a requirement but you did have to have a certain amount of property to vote and slaves were considered property

I don't recall ever hearing of slave ownership as a requirement for voting, was this actually ever the case?

this video is so true. I don't think a single one of the tea party people realise that times have changed and so has the way we look at the constiution. That what the sumpre court is for.

@nhstategop -_- Do you know who the idiot christians burned?

They burned the old ladies that new stuff about local herbs who would use their knowledge of how herbs and chemicals interacted with the human body to help people.

Got an infection? The priest will tell you to lie down and die, the "witch" aka the "pharmacist" will give you herbs to get rid of the infection

They put people with rudimentary medical knowledge to the death

@nhstategop You're right, I'm trying to cover for the wizardlings

We just finished a war with the local jedi academy and even though we kicked their space hippy asses we still need some time before our next fi...

I wonder if you're delusional enough to think that that was serious
