What's at issue is not whether something is offensive, but whether something is true. Go ahead and call anyone an idiot if that makes you feel better, but please stick to the facts and not your vain imaginings. Nobody that I know of has said "that US slavery was OK," and when you call someone who has NOT said that an idiot for allegedly having said that, it is you who becomes not only an idiot but also a slanderer.

[[ Moreover, no one on Vision 2020 is capable of censoring anyone. That's what 
is great about this forum, and different from RightMind and Blog&Mablog. ]]

If you think it's great that people can make idiotic assertions and slander with impunity, then yes, I'd have to agree there is a lot of greatness on V2020. It's a greatness that I'm glad Right Mind and Blog & Mablog "lack."
