The Betsy Ross Flag is a Symbol of Freedom, not Slavery
It is an incontrovertible FACT that half the population of the United States is below Median Intelligence in relation to the whole – it’s the way medians work. A majority portion of that half actually believes they possess above median intelligence; it’s what they do. It is also that half which is susceptible to the Malicious Idea that the United States was founded upon Slavery and that the Betsy Ross Flag is a Symbol of that Slavery. They’re Intellectually Vapid and Analytically Incompetent.
Slavery was brought to the shores of this continent, not by the US Founding Fathers, but by the Tyrannical dictates of European Monarchies; people who were cut from the same Hivist Cloth that Socialists and Fascists are today.
The United States was not founded upon any desire to perpetuate Slavery, far from it. In fact, the very moment the Declaration of Independence was penned and signed it began the End of Slavery.
You see, life was very different for people in the 18th and 19th centuries; it was extremely challenging just to stay alive in the New World. People didn’t have the time to worry about what other people were doing far away, they had enough to worry about right where they were. Colonists in New England didn’t have much in common with people in South Carolina except that they both spoke English and were governed by the British Crown. You must remember that the Colonies were quasi-independent countries, there was no United States; it did not exist. There was no President, no Congress, and no Supreme Court; no Federal Government, no Constitution, and no Flag. Laws made in Georgia did not pertain to the people of New York, and laws made in Massachusetts didn’t apply to the people of North Carolina. The only Common Government the Colonies referred to was the one in London.
Slavery in the Colonies only existed because the Monarchs of Great Britain allowed it to exist – they could have ended it anytime they wanted, but they didn’t. Therefore, blame for the existence of Slavery in North America belongs at the feet of British Royalty, not the US Founding Fathers.
The Idea that gave birth to the United States of America was inspired by the acknowledgment of the Proto Criteria; the Realization that Human Beings are endowed by their Creator with the Unalienable Rights of Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness. Slavery was in place long before the Government of the United States ever came into being. The United States inherited Slavery from European Dictatorships, we did not create it, and we were left to purge it from Ourselves.
England didn’t tell us to abolish Slavery. Spain didn’t tell us to abolish Slavery. France didn’t tell us to abolish Slavery. There was no outcry from Europe for us to abolish Slavery, there wasn’t even an outcry from Africa. The call to abolish Slavery came from within, from our own People. The Citizens of the United States demanded that we abolish Slavery. The Proto Criteria demanded that we abolish Slavery. The Spirit of Freedom which drove our Founding demanded that we abolish Slavery… and WE DID, WE DID IT OURSELVES!
The English didn’t free the Slaves. The Spanish didn’t free the Slaves. The French didn’t free the Slaves. Africans didn’t free the Slaves. Marxists didn’t free the Slaves. Communists didn’t free the Slaves. Socialists didn’t free the Slaves. Liberals didn’t free the Slaves. And, sure as hell, the Democrat Party didn’t free the Slaves. Union Soldiers and the Resolve of Millions of Americans, filled with the Spirit of the Proto Criteria, freed the Slaves. The American Idea freed the Slaves. It wasn’t easy, it wasn’t quick, but it was sure.
Slavery only existed in the United States for 87 years, from 1776 to 1865, what happened before that was under the jurisdiction of Great Britain. That is why Abraham Lincoln said, “Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a NEW NATION, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.” Before July 4th, 1776, Slavery was the responsibility of the Government of England.
Therefore, it is the epitome of ignorance to believe the Flag of the United States, particularly the Betsy Ross Flag, is a Symbol of Slavery. Such a notion is Abject Stupidity and an Egregious Error, if not an outright Lie.
The Betsy Ross Flag, and the Flag of the United States in general, is the Symbol of Freedom, not Slavery. It is the Symbol of the New Era of the Unalienable Rights of Mankind.
