    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.
