Really, the Louisiana Purchase is the first thing you believe the US did wrong 😂.
Yes.
Louisiana purchase was 1803, In 1619 ish slaves arrive in Virginia. Read a book you fucking absolute clown.
Good thing we have this expert history book reader to tell us that the first thing the UNITED STATES did wrong was import slaves into the ENGLISH COLONY of Virginia in 1619
Yes it predates the country and continues from day 1. You win such a big skull you must have 1776 brain cells.
It seems you have read a book in the last 2 hours, I'm glad we're in agreement that it doesn't involve the US then
I'm not in the business of arguing with dumb fucks. Clearly when they declared indepence from England they could have freed the slaves or you know sent them back to England, because you think it was the king who owned the slaves. Do you understand or should I draw you a picture with crayon?
