Every state in the so-called confederacy DID have regiments that DID resist the illegal actions of the traitors.
Lincoln asked them to kill their neighbors whether you like it or not......most that fought were too dang poor to own slaves...........
Had Lincoln taken a different approach then the War may not have happened.
We look at the Civil War via the PRISM of NOW and not the past................Ideologies back then were not the same..........neither was Morality of it.............Slavery was dying and rightfully so...........but the mindset of then versus NOW was not the same.........
The very Name of New York was named after the Duke of York who was a slave Trader.........should we change the name of that STATE??????????? Did the North also do slavery..........yes it did......Changing the name or applying the continual bitching over the Civil War is NOT EQUAL to the mindset of that time...........Doesn't change the History of it............you can't wash it away........all you can do is play the stupid little game of using it for Political reasons from a time that is long gone.......
Don't like my words I don't care...........I call it like I see it......and the neighbors back then would not have turned their guns on their neighbors........Forced the War.........by Lincoln policy.
