No...I apologized for inadvertently sending it to the list...did you not see that....I
do regret that and said so. I was trying to do two things at once, and I had thought
it
could go public, till I looked at it again. Sorry.

The most blatant was Illinois'. In 1861 they passed a law making it illegal for a
black person to be in the state. In 1862 they made it a part of their state
constitution.
Massachusetts: No law against slavery was ever passed by her legislature, and in
that
sense, the right to hold slaves may be said to have existed, until it was
extinguished
by adoption of the "constitutional amendment" in 1866.
In 1840 (U.S. census) there were 40 slaves in Pennsylvania.
New Jersey had 236 slaves for life in the 1850 census.
In March 1788, Massachusetts passed a law ordering every black, mulatto, or Indian
who came into the state and remained two months to be publickly whipped, and this
punishmentwas to be repeated "if he or she shall not depart "toties quoties." This
law
remained in force until 1834. (Moore, History of Slavery in Mass., p. 229)
There was also discussion on the KKK, well it is alive and well up north here.
Keep your eye on Wisconsin on Martin Luther King's Day....I think we are in for
trouble. An article appeared in the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel today.
The KKK will call of its Saturday rally at the state capitol if Gov Thompson admits he
was wrong to originally deny the group a permit for the demonstration a leader said
Monday.
But a spokesman for the governor said Thompson wouldn't go along with that request.
Wanting to prevent the vilence that could occur between the Klan and the counter
demonstators Mike McQueeney, the Grand Dragon for Wisconsin, called on Thompson to
publicly recognize the group has free speech and assembly rights too.
If the governor does, he said the group would cancel its rally. Otherwise it will go
forward as scheduled.
"If one person gets hurt on the Capitol steps--I don't care if it's a negro, a jew, or
a
homosexual or a neo-Nazi--it will be on Tommy Thompson hands"
McQueenely said Monday from his home in Mercer, Wis. "We'll cancel the rally it he
admits by noon Wed. that he was wrong, Otherwise we will be sure to be there on
Saturday.
Madison is not ready for the Klan, and we don't want anyone in the state of Wis. to get
hurt. We're not into violence, we're nonviolent. I can see something like this is
going to lead to a confrontation and someone has to put a stop to it. I can stop it."
A federal judge last week overturned the states decision to deny the group a permit for
the event. U.S. District Judge Barbara Crabb ruled Thompson could not deny the Klan's
right to assemble and speck just because previous rallies held elsewhere became
violent.
The state had argued in court that the Klan used earlier rallies in Janesville and
Bleat
to incite vilence. In December of 1997 rally in Beloit, nine people were arrested for
fighting and 400 anti-Klan protestors showed up to challenge 18 Klan members.
The Klan has schedule the rally for two days before Martin lutherKing Day to protest
the
holiday that honors him. State officials initially denied there quest because of safety
concerns.
After Crabbs ruling Thompson said he would not appeal the decision and would instruct
Capitol police to make security preparations for the rally. Nearly 500 law enforcement
officers will be available for the rally which could draw 100 Klan members and 2000
counter demonstartors......and it goes on a bit more...but you get the jist.
BTW the first KKK was disbanded, and the first one served a purpose,
a purpose which is less in severity than it is today...but the Klan is in other
states...northern ones...and many northern states forbade the blacks to settle in their
state
