Then what are you arguing about and why make the thread?I know what the secession declaration of causes say. I asked you 'what for', because I have never denied that the South seceded over slavery.

Dang! Are You that old?Which still makes it evil
I remember Moses freeing the Jews from slavery

Always Sir or Madam and children know their place?? Guess they had difficulty figuring out what you were. And if you took that attitude with my kids, you'd know your place right quick.I have spent many months throughout the South
What I respected was how politely I was treated, always Sir or Madam, waitresses called you Sweetie, children are respectful and know their place, people give up their seats for women and old people.
Not a fan of Country music but always had a good time at Country bars.
Great Comfort Food, BBQ, boiled peanuts
This is the Southern heritage that needs to be celebrated
NOT their history of racism

Start a new thread about them. See if anyone defends them.

When my ancestors fought the Yankees during the War Between the States, they proved themselves to be some of the toughest people on Earth. Twenty-five percent of all military-age Southerners died or were crippled in the war. For Americans, that’s an astounding figure. If the Yankees had suffered those kinds of casualties, they would have been burning their cities. Of course, that’s opinion—there’s no way to really know—but I also have no reason to be ashamed of my ancestors. They weren’t traitors, and for the most part, they were good people doing the best they could in the world as they understood it. One reason they may have fought so desperately was because of the outcome they feared if they lost.
At the same time in Kansas, Jayhawkers were killing Southerners just for living in Missouri. There had also been numerous slave revolts in which enslaved people killed men, women, and children. In Haiti in 1804, the Black government exterminated most of the remaining French after the independence war. They spared some of the women who agreed to marry Black men. What can you call a forced marriage other than slavery? So, I have no reason to be ashamed. It seems that the left tries to make whites ashamed of being who they are, especially if they’re Southerners. I’m not ashamed, and I’m not fragile. If they want to talk about race, I’m willing to do it as honestly as I can.
Liberals also emphasize the reaction of whites after the war, but all the occupation did was reaffirm their beliefs. What would have happened if they didn’t resist? Union soldiers, even though it was not government policy, robbed, raped, and murdered Southerners, and their commanders did virtually nothing about it. On top of that, the army had a strict censorship program that prevented this information from being disseminated. If it had been published, it might have come to light that these were not large-scale abuses but rather infrequent actions by a minority of Black Union soldiers. Without reliable information, Southerners saw it as a large-scale attempt to humiliate and crush them. In my opinion, that is what led to resistance movements such as the Ku Klux Klan and Jim Crow later on. I still remember the old people talking about the need to keep the Blacks down or they’d murder us all.
The reason I embarrass you so easily on this thread is that I hold the moral high ground.
No matter what excuse you provide, I just have to point out how evil slavery is and you lose every time
IN the defense of whoever you are referring to, they would have to be what 200 years old to say BOO about it.
Well we have historical evidence of the horrors of slavery, and the horrors of the Civil War. Thats why I don't understand what that portion of the thread is about. The merits of slavery are not debatable. It also doesn't matter about heritage. We all had bad ancestors at one time or another.RW, is happy to shoot his mouth off about slavery in this country, which is about the same time frame.
Yea, I didn't get the response either.
When growing up in Texas on the Gulf coast there was a lot of that, but it really changed over the years. Except for East Texas.What is it with Southerners and their fixation with the Civil War?
I remember when I was in the Navy, it seemed that all the southerners (and there were a lot of them) talked about was the Civil War.
You people lost. Give it up already.

Defending the Confederacy is a battle you can’t winMmm, nope. Your behavior is clearly disengenious. YOu only care...
YOu only PRETEND to care about slavery, when you can use it to bash WHITES.
Every other group, every other culture, gets a pass.
People who read this, can see that you are a racist piece of shit.
Defending the Confederacy is a battle you can’t win
Hint: It is a heritage that can’t be defended
You’d think they’d be ashamed of it.Defending the Confederacy is a battle you can’t win
Hint: It is a heritage that can’t be defended
Wrong again SkippyAnd despite us ALL having "bad ancestors", rw and other libtards like him, only attack WHITES who celebrate their heritage.
When did Whites get attacked for Celebrating their Spanish, Italian, or other European heritage in the last couple of decades? Southerners get attacked when they bring up weird excuses for slavery or Jim Crow.And despite us ALL having "bad ancestors", rw and other libtards like him, only attack WHITES who celebrate their heritage.
That shows that it is not about their stated reason for "outrage", but really just an act of anti-white racism and political power.
That is the point. Would you like to address it now?
