| We of the A.T.J.S. of A. do
hereby declare that Thomas Jefferson will be indicted for crimes against
humanity! |
|
We do therefore make the following charges:
|
- Thomas Jefferson wrote in the Declaration
of Independence that all men are created equal even though he
owned more than 200 slaves at his home in Monticello.
- In his Notes on Virginia, Jefferson
makes inflammatory and derogatory remarks directed against African
Americans.
- He makes no mention of the rights
of African Americans in the Declaration of Independence.
- He has not released all of his
slaves in accordance with the prevailing sentiment that slavery
was morally and ethically wrong in the period after the Declaration
of Independence.
- He has denied African Americans
the inalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness
accorded in the Declaration of Independence.
- He mentions injuries done to the
colonists by King George III, but we assert that Mr. Jefferson
was only referring to white colonists in the colonies.
|
| Therefore, we, the members
of the A.T.J.S. of A. do hereby bring forth a civil lawsuit against
the person and estate of Thomas Jefferson. We will find the best counsel
and see to it that justice be done. Our organization is dedicated
to the eradication of Thomas Jefferson as a Founding Father, President,
and "Enlightenment" figure.
