You heard the word "slavery" and had an emotional reaction, IMO.
The point Mr. Bundy is attempting to get across is that, welfare recipients are/were better off having a job, a purpose, something to do with their lives.
Drop the PC BS and try to understand the ideas he is attempting to convey. He is not a polished public speaker. He calls it how he sees it.

You then felt the need to call me out as an "idiot" for asking a simple question.
When I called you on it, you spouted off some nonsense about being "passive aggressive."
I'll be as aggressive as you'd like, just not in this thread - don't want it locked.
That's not exactly the way it went. Setting the tone and comparing someone being a slave and growing turnips as "better life" is ridiculous. I don't have to agree with that, even if I oppose the the actions of the BLM. Being a slave serves a purpose for a fruitful life? How many hundreds of thousand of lives were lost to stop slavery. It ripped our country apart. I did call you an idiot but removed it 15 seconds later. I guess you forgot about the panties and latte comment. Apparently that wasn't emotional? Dude your every bit as emotional as anyone else on this board. For the record slave families were ripped apart and sold as property. I think your passive aggressive. Take it as you want.
