Yep, it's true they wanted to have* slaves and for* whites to be the ruling class. But what I said about the second amendment being a (partial) result of the revolutionary war is also true. It's almost like two things can be true at the same time.

I suspect you think that because I said something positive about the second amendment, I'm also in favor of slavery and whites being the ruling class? Maybe don't twist my words like you twist historical events.

But how can both slaves AND whites be the ruling class? /s But for real, people lump the founding fathers as a monolith as if that has ever been the case with groups of militant groups.
