Yawns....You and IM2 seem to spend most of your time pouring over ancient history to fuel your hatred for White people.
Farewell to Donald Rumsfeld, Dreary War Criminal
Rumsfeld managed to do terrible things throughout his life while remaining tremendously banal.theintercept.com
"In retirement, Rumsfeld spent time at his antebellum vacation home on the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland. Appropriately, it was nicknamed “Mount Misery” and had once been owned by a specialist in “breaking” disobedient slaves. Frederick Douglass was sent there at age 16 for punishment and later wrote, “I was completely wrecked, changed, and bewildered; goaded almost to madness.”
Since Rummy is dead -- I have seen quite a few stories claiming that Rummy purchased a vacation home back in 2003 that was most famously owned by Edward Covey -- a notorious slave owner who was known for something they called "buck-breaking" or slave breaking..and that one of those slaves tortured at this property was Frederick Douglass....that part isn't true....Douglass was tortured at a nearby farm owned by Covey not at the property that Rummy bought.....
Although Covey did attempt to break a then 16 yr-old Frederick Douglass...Covey failed and got his ass kicked by Douglass in the process...I mean literally.......Douglass later wrote:
"Covey asked me if I meant to persist in my resistance. I told him I did, come what might; that he had used me like a brute for six months, and that I was determined to be used so no longer. By this time, Bill came. Covey called upon him for assistance, Bill wanted to know what he could do. Covey said, "Take hold of him, take hold of him!" Bill said his master hired him out to work, and not to help to whip me; so he left Covey and myself to fight our own battle out. Covey sat at length, puffing and blowing at a great rate, saying that if I had not resisted, he would not have whipped me half so much. The truth was, that he had not whipped me at all. I considered him as getting entirely the worst end of the bargain; for he had drawn no blood from me, but I had from him. The whole six months afterwards, that I spent with Mr. Covey, he never laid the weight of his finger upon me in anger again. He would occasionally say, he didn't want to get hold of me again. "No," thought I, "you need not; for you will come off worse than you did before."
Now, Covey would go on to do some more "buck-breaking" at the property that Donald bought and it definitely was called Mount Misery and yes there is some sort of weird coincidence that Rummy and his fondness for torture happened to buy a property famous for torture....but one must admit; breaking big black bucks back then was vital...Can you imagine if enough darkies decided to fight back in greater numbers?? Slavers would have to start importing more Irish and Slavs over here to do free labor...wouldn't had been as fun torturing and dehumanizing them for the next 300 yrs as it was darkies.
