Jon Hubbard, a Republican House of Rep member for the state of Arkansas, claims that slavery was "a blessing" for African-Americans."
In his new "self published book, "Letters to the Editor: Confessions of a Frustrated Conservative," Hubbard makes a series of statements which are raising eye-brows everywhere.
In the binded pages of his seemingly ignorant mind, Hubbard writes that "African slaves had better lives under slavery than in Africa, that blacks are not contributing to society, and that a situation is developing the United States which is similar to that of Nazi Germany."
OTHER STATEMENTS IN HIS BOOK:
“… the institution of slavery that the black race has long believed to be an abomination upon its people may actually have been a blessing in disguise. The blacks who could endure those conditions and circumstances would someday be rewarded with citizenship in the greatest nation ever established upon the face of the Earth.” (Pages 183-89)
"On the subject of school integration, Hubbard described black students as having a "a lack of discipline and ambition," which he said has hurt the entire educational system." (I believe this to be true of many blacks btw)
He was so concerned about the amount of immigrants in Arkansas that earlier this year, June to be precise, he called for the University of Arkansas to be audited because he wanted to see if tax money had been spent on a panel discussion about undocumented immigrants.
While one or two of the statements have some truth to it, I'm suprised that he believes is a true Christian with Christian values.
