Yes the white did have slaves brought from Africa. But who sold them the slaves? Other Africans did. It was the "whites" who outlawed slavery in the USA and people from many backgrounds who went to war and died for the rights and laws we enjoy today. We have laws to protect people, regardless of race, religion, sex or origin in this country. While it may be legal in other countries to have slaves, this family broke the law by doing it here in the USA. I am glad they got punished and deported. How do you thing you would be treated in Egypt if you broke their laws? I am soooooo sick of "gimme gimme gimme because my great ancestor was a slave". Shyima Hall was a slave and SHE got restitution, lets hope her great great grand children don't wave a flag and ask for more restitution! I think it despicable that one human own another. This was a wealthy family who could have easily afforded legal servants. But I can think that way because by the grace of god, or whichever almighty power you want to believe in, I was born as an American Citizen! God Bless American! Thatzlife,

We need to embrace culturism instead. Multiculturalism says we should "celebrate diversity." They have a very shallow understanding of diversity. In other cultures there are no women's rights, people enslave children and kill gays. If multiculturalists deny these are good, they are culturists. This is good, they are no longer blind worshippers at the alter of diversity. Multiculturalism has denied that we have a core culture. We do. We believe in rights and the dignity of the individual. When you encourage immigration from strange lands you get strange customs. If you do not have the gumption to teach and back up your customs, they do not diminish. Worse than this, some cultures not only violate our culture, they hate it. We are importing the horrors that it took us eons to evolve out of. This includes Jihadis who remember the 1300 year plus battle between Islam and the West. Sorry to rant, but this article really points out that some people do not take western values to be the norm. We have a culture and we must protect it. Like all other nations, the West must be culturist. www.culturism.us This story is just one of many that should help us see through multiculturalism.

Just look at history and see how White people enslaved and tortured people and to this day many do not feel anything was wrong with it. Go read some history on what really took place as the whites brought Africans to America. Now they want to throw people in prison for having maids?;when the type of slavery they forced on innocent Africans was the most inhumane ever! This American mindframe is backwards. Suddenly white people are judging what is right and wrong when it comes to slavery...culture? mmmm, Ok buddy. First of all, what these people in the story were doing is cultural. Even though it was illegal by our laws here, it was not intended on being malicious and evil. Whereas, the slavery and brutality the whites oppressed Africans with was intended to be harsh, brutal, murderous, and evil in every way. No comparison. They give prison time to the family's that hired the girl as a maid (which is a normal cultural way of life in their country). Yet what punishments whites get for REAL atrocities? Nothing! That family had to pay her 75,000 for 2 years of maid work? What type of reparations have Africans received for 400 years of slavery? So, Im sorry if I can't respect the prosecutors in this case. I'm happy the girl is able to live a life alligned with the culture of America, since she is living IN America. That part I'm happy about. But the white people who are supposedly sooooo against such injustices! Get out of here! Trying to imprison people...and if you asked those prosecutors would they put their grandfathers and grandmothers in prison who had Black maids all during the 50's and 60's...treating them as 2nd class citizens....(just look at our older movies. It was a normal thing.) Do they even look at that as an injustice? They would say, oh no...my grandparents were being gracious to hire them. (same thing the Egyptians said, about their own hiring of maids right?) The nerve!
