[QUOTE]Originally posted by TSN: [QB] Much as I admire Jefferson for many things, I do still wonder about his slave ownership. Were his slaves allowed to leave any time they wanted? Even if he wanted to educate them, you can't [i]force[/i] someone to learn if they don't want to. If he made them stay and work while "educating" them, w/o giving them the option to go fend for themselves if they wanted, he's just like the man who beats the shit out of his children, claiming that it's for their own good. Much as Jefferson may have wanted to help people, slavery still lacks freedom... [/QB][/QUOTE]
