[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Like Romeo and Juliet, it could be the romance between Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemmings was probably genuine but was condemned by wider society at the time.

In that way, Jefferson was likely far ahead of his time, was a true believer that love is love unconditionally, and he was actually quite progressive.[/quote]

I hope you're trolling. If you think that the romance between an over 40 year old man and a 14 year old slave child was some new age, ahead of it's time romance, you're being ridiculous at best. There's no period of time where that's acceptable. Much less so when the child is a captive threatened with being sold or killed if she refused him.[/quote]

You have no way of knowing that .[/quote]

Are you serious? Knowing what? That a 14 year old is in no way capable of being in love with a 43 year old man (and he was 43 when their first child was born), so who knows how long he was raping her before she got pregnant. Please stop - you're arguing the case of a pedophile.[/quote]

This is why we can’t have fun threads.  Also, Ben Franklin wasn’t a president.[/quote]
