And, the number is growing, J. South.
I put up the pages for Nat Turner and John Paul Jones on the 11th, and so 
far, 120 people have checked out Nat Turner, and only 104 have checked out 
John Paul Jones.

I am inclined to think that all Africans who attempted to get their freedom, 
whether by rebellion, attacking their "masters", or by running away, are 
more heroic than the owners could ever pretend to be.

How heroic is someone who is beating the stuffings out of someone who is 
just seeking their human rights?
