If it was legal to own a slave, would you?

  • Read the rest of my comments. I never said that slavery is okay. I'm just saying that there are more, somewhat less shitty and abusive forms of binding slaves. Sure, it can get abusive too, but it's a hell of a lot better than having the crap beaten out of you until you work.

    Following on from the line before it, it's providing a more modern example, or rather a more achievable one in modern times.

    • You heavily implied that you would be willing to own slaves, which indicates that you think that would be ok. "I wouldn't be a mean, evil master, so my slaves shouldn't become dissatisfied" and your other comments about how you would treat your slaves are what led me to think that.

      • I also stated that it is all hypothetical:
        "I'm not saying that slavery should be brought back, in fact, I'd rather that NOT happen.
        All I'm really saying is that I think I could have pulled off owing a slave, had times not changed."
