I just love how they made a distinction between slavery and the slave trade. Jefferson might have condemned the slave trade but he had over 600 slaves throughout his life.
Capturing, buying and selling people into slavery? Bad.
Owning slaves, and having the children of those slaves be born into slavery? Fine.
