If it makes a weak team a little stronger and a midstrong team weaker than I don ' t think you should veto it . If it makes a strong team stronger then veto it . <| sep |> Your dad have any insight to the racist blog she wrote that was posted in another comment ? <| sep |> I mean , we were pretty late to outlaw it . Canada was taking in escaped slaves like refugees and refusing to give them back to the US . Many of our peers in the western world had outlawed slavery hundreds of years ago . Plus the abuse and human rights violations in our country were obscene , slaves had no rights or humanity under the law and were regularly being butchered . This is not an area the US did very well in , to say we were behind the curve on this issue is an understatement . It ' s kind of like saying , why do we blame Saudi Arabia for treating women like property under the law ? Every country or civilization has treated women this way . It isn ' t wrong , but it ignores the fact that the rights of women in Saudi are decades or centuries behind the global standard .
