Then there was the slave market in Dublin. I have no doubt some of the 
product consisted of inconvenient people the Irish wanted to get rid of.

One thing I find interesting is the Cherokee used slaves that they had 
captured from neighboring tribes. After the Europeans arrived they sound 
it preferable to purchase African slaves and later took them with them on 
the Trail of Tears to Oklahoma. They're still squabbling about the status 
of the descendants. 

The related question is why, with a continent full of potential slaves, 
did the colonists choose to import Africans.
