I didn't say I promoted slavery. I simply said it's not my problem.

I bet the linked sites were destroyed by disgruntled Slavic peoples.

Umm...have you all attempted to follow the links to the 2 provided websites? They don't exist.

The Slavic people would not look kindly upon you people saying they can be owned.

You don't care about slavery clpo? That is pretty horrible I have never met anyone who says they don't care about slavery.

No, I don't care. I sleep well enough at night without worrying about a problem I can't solve.

Damn. Another typo to haunt me at night.

I have a feeling not all the parts of your car were made in Germany.

My car was made in Germany by probable illegal Turkish immigrants. So I guess I might be "premoting" slavery.

The Audi/Volksvagen upper management are enslaved by German labour laws forcing them to hire illegals to survive.

I sure hope you don't own car. If you do I am pretty darn sure you are premoting slavery if you do...and polution.

well I have a question actually, all the websites that are accusing candy of owning slaves are pointing the finger at candy itself not the company that makes Mike&Ikes is called "Just Born" and Mars Inc. makes the snickers. so why do these sites accuse the candy instead of the manufacturer?

It is good to see you are taking action against slavery ampmaster. I encourage you to research you candy choice to ensure that they do not own slaves because if they do - you will still be supporting slavery.

Does anyone else have anything to add?

We don't care because life sucks. What do you plan on doing about this slavery? Anything at all? Stop preaching and do something. Otherwise you're just a mouth with no purpose.

You don't care about slavery clpo? That is pretty horrible I have never met anyone who says they don't care about slavery. What you are saying is down right horrible. Bushsupporter is part of the solution. He is brining this issue to light which is always the first step in a solution. He is doing more than you calling slavery a farce and not caring about it.

Snickers is not to blame for where they get their chocolate. No more than you are for where you get your shoes

First off, I don't own nikes. Second off, that is not the topic of this board - the topic is snikers. What you are saying is that textile merchants in early America were not to blame for getting cotton from slave run plantations. Or like syaing slave owners in the early south weren't to blame for stealing slaves from Africa because they simply bought them in America.

What point, BS? This whole thread is a farce. Snickers is not to blame for where they get their chocolate. No more than you are for where you get your shoes. (Buy Nikes? You slaveowner.)

What did the poor question mark ever do to you?

Tee hee hee. I don't go around making fun of spelling or puctuation because people make mistakes and I am not writing posts for a Nobel Prize. But if you want your argument to be based on grammer rather than substance, I understand why. You have no retort to my point and have nothing to do but yell at me or my grammer.

I am really not surprised because you have been incapable of answering a simple question on several occassions. Figure out how to do that, and focus less on grammer.

Why do you guys not care about all of this slavery.

As long as I get my candy.

What I do care about is your complete lack of proper punctuation in the sentence above. What did the poor question mark ever do to you?

Why do you guys not care about all of this slavery.

Because we're all really conservatives, BS. We're just pretending to be liberals to throw you off.

Bleh.... You know, I'd much rather have FML back than BS and his twin.

www.mike&ikesownsslaves.com says that Mike and Ikes is on record owning 148 slaves. More slaves that Walmart is responsible for. Why do you guys not care about all of this slavery.

Go for the Mike an Ikes (sp?) There is less fat or calories or something like that.
