Oh, believe me when I say everyone has a right to his or her opinions, even you. Yes, I have voiced my opinions in the past regarding the house. However, I am capable of expressing my opinions and ideas based on sound thought and logic. Let me ask you this...if someone labeled the house "The Old Slave House" many years ago (based on stories they had heard) and that is what everyone began calling it, does that mean it is concrete proof that it was a slave house? Just because someone calls it that for a long time, doesn't make it arbitrarily true. It seems strange to me that for as much research that has been done, there has never been any proof. Logically, how could that be? Yes, I would love to take care of the old house, however, my husband is a United States Marine (of 19 years) and our duty calls here in North Carolina for our mission is to protect the freedom and rights of people like you who feel their right to speech over the Internet has been impaired. My husband would give his life to ensure your right to attack others verbally and threaten to burn down houses over the Internet.

Excuse me? I don't think this calls for personal attacks! If I can't voice my opinion on this subject..what makes you think you have a right to? Yes Rose..since you had ancestors in this house..I guess you wouldn't want it destroyed. Maybe you should take care of this "wonderful" old Historic place. Surely you don't surmise that a "Slave House" would have been anything other than what the name of it implies! You and Cody need to re-read your previous messages..sounds like you are talking out of both sides of your mouth. Your former messages sounded to me like you didn't like the subject either. As for the Delete button..thanx for the advice..I have already used it on your messages. I will be Unsubscribing from this"whatever" list this is..I know you will miss me.
