"But rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law,' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the right of an individual."

If Vesey was a terrorist, then every slave owner in the South was a terrorist.
Of course, "the Southern Avenger's" definition is retarded, because it doesn't take into the account the importance of context in defining "terrorist".
WHAT A RETARD.
Yes, I'm sure the slave owners caused much terror.
Yes, in fact they caused terror on a daily basis for each and every slave that wanted to be free. You see, that is how the slave system worked. Slaves that tried to escape were lashed or hanged. That, for me, is a system of terrorism.
Ok. I agreed with you the first time.
The systematic terrorism of the slave owners justified the existence of Vesey.
And as I have always maintained, the systematic terrorism of the US justifies the existence of Bin Laden.
Gonna have to disagree here. Bin Laden is a rich boy ideologue who grew up in a protected state. He is thus hardly like Denmark Vesey.
Ok then. The terrorists that crashed the planes into the twin towers.
All of those terrorists were from Saudi Arabia. Every last one of them had lots of cash. Please read up on how the oil wealth is divided in Saudi Arabia.
The justification is subjective. The hijackers obviously thought they had good reason to sacrifice their life. The terrorism committed by the US in the middle east, justified their actions in their mind. As Westerners, we may not understand it, but the slave owners probably didn't understand the terrorism of Denmark Vesey either.
That's all very nice, but clearly the "terrorism" of Denmark Vesey (which didn't even occur) was justified. Your principle, that terrorism is never right, allows systemic terrorism and exploitation a free pass. That is wrong.
"Your principle, that terrorism is never right, allows systemic terrorism and exploitation a free pass. "
Please re-read that statement. I don't feel like explaining the obvious idiotic statement you just made.
Fine.
