They don't go into this kind of detail in public school. ....
Yes they do. You were just too busy being stupid to pick it up.

That's what you rejected ...
It was indeed a dilemma.
The only dilemma was over how Union states would react to declaring the war in large part a mission to end slavery. Indeed, many in the North did not care for this notion at all.
That's what you rejected ...
No, you dishonest fuck, my words were very clear. You were just too stupid to understand them.

Dude, are you trying to boost your number of posts today or something?
What property did Lincoln seize?The Emancipation Proclamation was never in question other than by revisionist halfwits like you.
Again, it needs to be pointed out... The EP was an action taken by a president against an enemy of the state in time of war.....
You keep repeating this as if you assume everyone dropped out of Jr High US History like you did. As has been pointed out to you at least three times now, dimwit, a state of war existed at the time despite the illegitimacy of the so-called confederacy.
Well it is impossible the South was BOTH a nation at war with the US and ALSO not a legitimate nation. If they weren't a legitimate nation, the president didn't have authority to seize their property. That was only permissible as an action of the Commander in Chief at a time of war against an enemy of the state. That is why the EP didn't apply to West Virginia and other slave-holding northern states.
Lincoln knew this and spoke about it extensively. It was indeed a dilemma. He realized he could do this under powers of war against an enemy at war with the US. The same way FDR interned Japanese and Bush detained enemy combatants at Gitmo. But in doing so, he also has to acknowledge the South as an enemy at war and not citizens of the US protected by Constitutional rights. Also, we're talking about a period of time when Southern states of the Confederacy had NO representation in Washington. So do believe Southerners were rogue people without a nation?
To brain-dead retards like you, sure. To anyone with a functioning brain, they chart how much the respective states cited cause for secession.They represent how much was mentioned by each state in their respective declarations of causes which I linked.Sorry, but you don't get to rewrite history. Four of the seceding states wrote why they were seceding. The tariff was not among their reasons. I'm sure you will notice the biggest reason of all...Radical northern abolitionist, primarily from New England, helped start the war...but behind the scenes wealthy northern industrialist wanted a tariff and southern agrarian farmers did not. It was all about the $$$$ and the constitutional issue of whether or nor a state could leave the Union.All you have proven is that you're mentally deranged enough that if you take a sentence and cut off the beginning and cut off the ending, you can tailor it to mean something other than what it actually means in toto.
And get this ... while you portray me as the one stamping my feet and whining about it, history recorded the events as I portrayed them -- the south started the was by attacking a federal fort.
You may not like history ... but ... who cares?
Where did these idiotic pie charts come from? Do you actually believed the reasons can be quantified in such a manner? That's like assigning a number to the color orange. The fact that you posted this idiocy only shows what a boob and a gullible ignoramus you are.
In other words, it's absolutely meaningless.

I know you don't like it since it highlights how much they cited slavery as the reason for seceding, but then, who gives a flying fuck what you like?
Tons of it, but most importantly he tried to seize slaves in Southern states.What property did Lincoln seize?The Emancipation Proclamation was never in question other than by revisionist halfwits like you.

Dude, are you trying to boost your number of posts today or something? Is there some kind of prize the pinheads have offered for most denigrating and irritating poster of the day? What's up with flooding the forum with one-line pop offs and insults? OR... are you trying like a cat in her litter box to cover up the awful-smelling cat turd of an argument you made and couldn't support?
You still have it wrong, the south started the war when they attacked a federal fort. And I never said Lincoln fought the war to free the slaves. I said the south fought the war to keep their slave. A distinction lost a dumbfucks such as yourself.To brain-dead retards like you, sure.

I know you don't like it since it highlights how much they cited slavery as the reason for seceding, but then, who gives a flying fuck what you like?
That's all irrelevant because Lincoln didn't invade Virginia to free the slaves. Lincoln started the war, not the Confederate states. Lincoln invaded Virginia. The Confederacy didn't invade any Union state.
What property did Lincoln seize?
lincoln didn't start a war. secession started the war.you're ability to paint a war started to guarantee slavery as something noble is sickening.Let's face it. Southerners fought against Northern aggression and for their freedom. They were patriotic Americans sick of seeing their country going the wrong way. That's why people typically fly the Stars and Bars.
But we got over that and healed and the descendents of those Confederates went on to serve the American army and win our wars.
But those who want to censor, who want to denigrate the struggle of our Southern ancestors, who want to demonize others for holding opinions contrary to theirs are no better than jihhadis and communists, who want to ban anything contrary to their religion. They are the hater dupes of the public world.
Lincoln started the war, moron, and it wasn't to free the slaves.

And you thinking you can judge people that lived in a different time by todays standards is equally sickening.
those people chose to take up arms against their nation in defense of slavery. that does not make them patriots as the op would like us to believe. it makes them traitors.
You're an imbecile -- he attempted to free the slaves, he didn't attempt to seize them.
