Rep. Justin Lafferty, republican from Tennessee defending the 3/5 compromise, saying it

was an agreement to "eliminate" slavery, because only 3/5 of a state's slaves would be counted toward total population

I am so f**king tired of these racist assholes in congress trying to revise history to falsely say that the southern states really wanted to get rid of slavery, and that there was actually "some good in slavery"
