      The problem is if it was not you to do it. Was me. Black people would have done it to white people and all around one race to another. As it has been many thousands of years. What this means as a whole we have to rise above racism as the human race... Other wise we will have race wars for many hundreds of years. You feel me.

      Fernando Margellan If you study humanity you see that this is the nature of the human being. Look at the tribes that captured their own people.

      Disgusting thing is that BLM couldn't care less about Black people or they would address the fact that the Slave Trade continues in Africa today. The BLM racists only give a shit when the oppressor is White.

      It should’ve stayed up, good and bad parts of British history should be remembered

    So what was achieved by dumping the statue into the water? Did it change history one tiny bit?

      Because the white supremacist does not want their evil deeds to be told

      Yes! Should go after their graves, not just dump the statue!

    Slave traders also gave slaves so called "Christian" names.

    And they have the gull to tell black people to get over slavery, how can you get over something that was so dehumanizing and traumatizing.

    James DeWolf was the richest slave trader in Bristol. John Brown the richest in Providence.

    The British role in this trade was appalling BUT they DIDN'T enslave them they were ENSLAVED and then sold by THEIR own. THE British were the most progressive in abolishing the trade AND actually repatriated MORE slaves than they transported

    as of 2020 the 7th of May today this son of a bitch statue has been pulled down and dumped in water to rot by young hands of colour and lighter colours, other white brothers who have brains and education enough to see the big picture
    Peace to all who mean peace, for evil will always be over come, oh but at a mighty cost

    They decimated that Continent and hampered its progress. Seeing the millions of people that shipped out I am sure in some areas only old people were left, devoid of new generations.

    Deuteronomy 28:68 King James Version (KJV)
    68 And the Lord shall bring thee into Egypt again with ships, by the way whereof I spake unto thee, Thou shalt see it no more again: and there ye shall be sold unto your enemies for bondmen and bondwomen, and no man shall buy you.

      Sure, you bury yours, we'll start on ours, says this American. Some Bristols here are coastal towns, potentially part of the same crimes against humanity.
