        All this talk makes me nostalgic for my sadly recently disintegrated and discarded "Nuke The Gay Whales For Jesus" t-shirt.

            The problem is it looks like he's trying to justify slavery. With no context it's easy to say the guy supports slavery or he is a racist. But I would rather dig deeper and understand why he is wearing it -- is it in response to somebody's statement?
            Yeah, beyond the presumed facts, I'm a little unclear of the broader point the message on his shirt is trying to make.

                Maybe you t-shirt analysts can explain the deeper meaning of this shirt message...

                            So is he trying to show that at one point one of the more shameful facts of societal evolution is that slavery was acceptable world-wide?
                            So was burning people at the stake - BFD. That was wrong too.

                                But the blame for slavery seems to fall squarely 100% on the white American.

                                    It's pretty much a given that the inherent tribal leaders who traded or sold off their countrymen were complicit as well.

                                        Hell, that's easy!

                                        To look for a deeper meaning than that is just over-thinking things....
