so... youre equating a guy buying a house.... to a guy buying a person

Yes

like... taking the freedom of another person

because at the time it was the same

Compensation was the ONLY right way to do it. Unlawful seizure of property by the state without compensation would have rent the state in half

@Kunarian source

At the time it was essentially the same

Compensation was right.

I have to go so quicc

Because people had paid for what they considered property.

If we look at it in a modern sense it would be like someone buying a house only to have the Government take it

And it avoided turning the government into a thug.

It wouldn't be fair

and instead of compensating the person who's freedom was taken... you say we should have compensated the guy who kept that freedom :/

Both should have happened tbh.

They invested in it so yes

@Kunarian where did you get this nigger number

You cannot simply seize property that someone owns and not compensate them in an advanced society like late 19th century England and expect the state to survive that

The second one has further reading

which I'm sure you'll take up

why not?

Not a single citation

Nice one

Citation?

Just Negros writing for their benefit

it would have been how many people not getting compensation?

100?

Are you high Leohte?

" The most important cause of these migrations was probably the slave trade. British involvement in the trade began in the 16th century and had reached huge proportions by the 18th"

Or just illiterate?

Where is the data derived from?

This is Leohte you are talking about
