At some point in the past it was okay to have slaves. It was almost a right to own a slave. There was nothing wrong with it. Fortunately some people fought to have this changed and society matured.

Although I do disagree with a lot of your post, you've indirectly stumbled upon and mentioned probably one of the largest reasons that people (particularly in the South) will never give up their guns.
There is portions of the population down there who still can't forgive the 'Evil North' for telling them what to do (taking away their slaves).
