What would the NHS do without them...!?


And it seems slavery by blacks is still going strong but it's only us whites who are guilty for it even though we have never had anything to do with it in our lifetimes...

Funny, the moral I see in it is the rich can only get richer by stealing from someone else, in this case a whole life. Stated another way, that which you take is that much less for the other person.

This is the core philosophy of Tories and Republicans. And of course, proof is in the pudding: a mere 1% own 99% of the wealth. It's just a small step to go from this to owning the whole person.

Irrelevant to the op (and wrong).

I disagree on both counts. To deprive a man of his freedom is just further along the road of depriving him of his wealth. It's selfishness.

Nothing to do with rich people and poor people. The man has nothing to take
They stole his life and his freedoms. Its slavery, pure and simple.

Once again police and social services could have stopped it and didn't.

It is not a point on Tories or republicans etc, it is about black enslavers of another black.



The Tories believe that all things being equal then let free market capitalism decide and have a small state and as little state intervention as possible while maintaining public services, that is free sounding to me.

Capitalism supersedes all economic modalities. Labour becomes wages, which the rich want to both reduce as a means of production, and take back in the form of marketing income. So it is really the labour of another they seek. Why not take it directly? Indeed, that is what the capitalists did in the Americas. Slavery is the ultimate form of capitalism.

Tories and Republicans are the political extensions of capitalists. They help out on the political and legal front, and take back in the form of donations and gratuities.

The two in the op look like lefties to me...







And black enslavers of another black... something you are trying desperately to avoid!!!

Not at all. Don't you recall when we covered that?

NO!

Too bad. Look on the thread about Baltimore and the race-based police killing of Freddie Gray.

That has nothing to do with these two black immigrants enslaving another black for the last 24 years...

I gather you are now disclaiming any notice that the story is 'black-on-black'?

Otherwise, we had a most insightful discussion about that over on the Freddie Gray thread.

I have not looked at The grey thread... this thread is about the two Nigerian immigrants here who have had another black man as a slave for the last 24 years!
