    In 1893 Matilda Joslyn Gage wrote a book called "Woman, Church and State". She describes girls being lured into prostitution with ads for nannies and housekeepers, only to find themselves chained up in a cabin in a logging camp. This was contemporary with Frederick's saloon/brothel enterprise. So far as I've read, it's made to sound like he wasn't personally involved in what was happening there, or like the women he was running were independent contractors there to get a piece of that Yukon gold the easy way. I'm not so sure. If girls were being lured to the logging camps of Wisconsin in the 1890's, why would it be any different in the gold fields of Alaska in the same timeframe?

They have also proven if you have a complicit media towing the leftist party line for just as long, that idiots like you will believe the lies over facts. As for slavery? We freed slaves (by we, I mean Republicans) over 150 years ago. The dems (the slave owners) were defeated. We created a Constitutional amendment over 50 years ago (dems were against it) to ensure their rights. No apology needed. It's been fixed. Europe had plenty of slaves as well, a fact many in the EU like yto forget. Of course, so did Africa.

As for your comment about the democrats while historically correct, you have forgotten that it was the slaver southern Christian conservative states like South Carolina, Georgia, Texas Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, Louisiana followed by Arkansas North Carolina, Virginia, Tennessee that started the Confederacy. Notice something. All those states which were democrats are now republican and the liberal northeast which was the republican Union strength are now either democrats or trend that way. The parties have flipped orientation with the former liberal republican becoming liberal democrats and the conservative democrats becoming conservative republican. Try to think about why it is that all those slave states are now Republican. Was it because LBJ signed the Civil Rights Act of 1964 that the South began to drift to the Republicans? Was it economic? Racial? If you are honest about this you can see that the reddest Republican states today are from the old Democrat Confederate States. An honest person would research why. Can you do that? If you can do the work to understand why you believe the way you do I'll respect that. I was Republican from Nixon to GWs first term. Now independent that goes 70/30 Democrat because of research.

    Thank you for detailing the subject of the bar and ladies rooms. I was searching for his family history in wikipedia two years ago, and I encountered that. I couldn't understand at all since it was too brief. I tried to find more detail by asking on forums but I wasn't sure if I misread of the brothels, so thought I could sound a bit insulting to people if I asked for history details. Now I understand clearly. Thanks.

Anyone who was not white would not have been allowed to do what he did. Do you realize how impossible it is to replicate Drumpf's story today? Immigration is incredibly expensive, and it can take months and months to be allowed to work legally, instead of working right away thanks to a family connection. Should we follow Fred's example and open bar/brothels? Oh the ignorance...

He did that after he was told by Eugene Stoner the guns would not operate as expected without the Chrome lining. Of course he did make one step first , he had his people see which would be more cost-effective, send the guns back to get them chrome-lined or pay for the projected military funerals. McNamara chose the latter not the former. So there you go Kennedy was such a bad president he delegated being a shitbag out to someone else so they could crap bag all over the place. That was the genocide of South Vietnamese people and American troops.
