    A while back some MAGoo posted about how immigrants were all criminals. Highly irate when I pointed out that ‘indentured servants’ were the gutter sweepings of England, and that France would forcibly make male colonists marry women imprisoned for prostitution.

    • To be pedantic, France offered the role as a colonist as an alternative to being locked up, on the stipulation that they take a prostitute with them as they leave.

      The prisoners could have chosen to stay in jail instead.
