Behind your obfuscations it is clear that the slave trade as practiced by the south as an institution is ok by you and your crackpot academics.

No, that's both a lie and the "usual" slur hurled when someone that idolizes the Lincoln Cult. The very idea that anyone inside libertarianism would support slavery is absurd.

So Pat, you are against all forms of government and slavery but not against a gov that wanted to spread slavery.

What government was that? The US government wanted areas of land protected for "free, white labor" and said so many times. Is that your position? Lincoln himself wanted to deport all black people within the US, your position too?

Not one of my neighbors owns slaves, nor have any of them owned slaves. In fact, at the height of chattel slavery, only 20% of the population in the Confederate States owned slaves, among those were quite a few black slave owners.
The whole slavery issue was a club used by the merchantilist north against the agrarian south, and nothing more. That's why most of the black codes originated in the north, not the south.
