“We’ve never in the history of this country passed any
laws or done anything based on race or religion. Let’s not
start that now.” — South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley
The only thing you can conclude from this is that Gov. Haley doesn’t think of black people as human and therefore her state never did anything to human beings based on their race.
