The clause, too, reprobating the enslaving the inhabitants of Africa, was struck out in complaisance to South Carolina and Georgia, who had never attempted to restrain the importation of slaves, and who, on the contrary, still wished to continue it. Our northern brethren also, I believe felt a little tender under those censures; for, though their people had very few slaves themselves, yet they had been pretty considerable carriers of them to others.
That was not only the "crimes against nature itself" perpetrated upon the people of Africa. We are speaking about torture and mass murder after consuming people as if people were less than cattle. Not speaking about people who may have been guilt of buying slaves, teaching slaves to earn their own way through life, and then working out a way for the slave to earn (purchase) their freedom, if such people did exist in those days.
We are not speaking about "everyone," as if everyone is guilty because some people torture, murder, and mass murder people after consuming people as if people were less than cattle. Hold the guilty to account, and do not punish the innocent, which is Rule of Law.

Whenever they rebelled or even disobeyed an order, they were punished in the harshest ways. Slave owners would hang their human property by their hands and set their hands or feet on fire as one form of punishment. Some were burned alive and had their heads placed on pikes in the marketplace as a warning to other captives.
Those who think it is an area of greyness concerning the ability of people to defend the innocent from the guilty are those who constitute that power commanded by criminals to purchase victims and consume victims.
Think like victims, act like victims, and be power-less in defense against criminals, and by that failure of reasonable defensive thoughts and actions, crime pays well, and then there will never be a short supply of criminals.
If you think evil people are everyone, for example, then where do you think the piles of victims come from? The piles, and piles, of victims throughout history are themselves evil because they rebelled? Because they refused to be one of the criminals, because they said no to joining the criminal gangs, they are guilty as sin, and therefore they, because of their lack of blind obedience to criminals, they, unlike you who pay the criminals whatever the criminals demand, are evil, because we are all evil according to that type of mind fornication?
The many (not the few) are those who prefer to live and let live, to earn, to produce, to cooperate, to hold life like life has meaning, purpose, and value. That way of life, that spirit, can be misdirected, and that is the point of pointing out the gravity of the crimes perpetrated by the American infiltrators. Thomas Jefferson points them out clearly. Do you need a list of names? Do you begin to see the reasoning for electing Magistrates, starting a Committee of Safety (as the people in Oregon just did), and following the true law of the land, which is common law, which is legem terrae, which is to offer those found guilty their means by which they too can get back on the good side of life, to end their crime spree.
Those who refuse to remain on the good side of life, to end their crime spree, are evil, they are animals, they are natural disasters, unreasonable, incorigable, criminally insane, and to allow them to run amok is akin to electing the criminally insane, torturing, mass murderers, as your absolute Dictators.
Is that really that hard to see, and see clearly? If not, then why not?
