Can you explain how you came to that interpretation?

  Where do you think the phrase "sold down the river" came from - from slaves being sold to be sent down the Mississippi River to the slave markets in New Orleans.

    I do hope you never use the word 'sinister', which of course comes from the old belief that left-handed people are somehow the spawn of the devil. Or refer to someone getting "their pound of flesh", which is Shakespeare's quaint variant on the blood libel. Etc, etc.
