   The history of black slavery is not always correctly portrayed.   
      
   In many cases it is deliberately revised to coincide with the   
   agenda of the individual or organization presenting their   
   "facts".   
      
   In the Southern states of the USA, blacks actually owned   
   approximately 40 percent of the slaves prior to and during the   
   civil war.  This was viewed with great consternation by Eastern   
   bankers and their investors.   
      
   For one, these bankers were getting rich from cotton and tobacco   
   products produced by slaves.  The idea that inferior blacks were   
   accumulating wealth, and gaining a measure of respectability   
   simply could not be tolerated.   
      
   Dutch and Spanish traders provided nearly all of the black   
   slaves in the Southern states.  It should be noted that there   
   were also white slaves.  These white slaves were sold to black   
   slave dealers to pay off debts.  A white man being sold to a   
   black slaver was considered an extreme insult to the person.   
      
   The initial black slaves were not healthy and it was necessary   
   to breed more hardy stock from the best physical specimens.   
      
   To this end, blacks were encouraged to breed and given   
   stimulants such as cocaine and marijuana.  To help their libido,   
   they were given watermelon.  The drugs and watermelon combined   
   for many a rape in the black settlements of the era.  Thus many   
   black babies were born, but not without some accidents.   
      
   There were many fine physical specimens bred, but they were the   
   result of inbreeding which resulted in low intelligence,   
   laziness, and violence towards their white masters, who were   
   insistent that they work for their food and lodging.  This   
   insolence could not be tolerated and resulted in many hangings   
   as a lesson to others.   
      
   Watermelon had unpredicted side effects when first given to   
   blacks.   Watermelon has natural erectile dysfunction curative   
   effects.  Blacks tend to copulate like rabbits.  Combining that   
   behavior with drugs and watermelon, blacks became sociopathic   
   rapists, and would screw anything with an available orifice.   
      
   Slave owners recognized the power of water melon over blacks and   
   used it as a breeding incentive at first.  To regain control, it   
   was then issued as a reward after a good day of work.  Blacks   
   would do anything for a piece of watermelon, even fight each   
   other, hence a sport was born.   
      
   Eastern bankers used to travel to the South and make huge wagers   
   on the results of black fighting.   
      
   The winners of these fights would be given money, privilege,   
   drugs, the occasional white woman and of course, more watermelon.   
      
   It was considered good sport for the bankers to watch the   
   winning black rape his white woman.
