Why so much hate for the Confederacy.? It can't be about slavery.

Hey, dipshit. One side fought to keep slaves. If the Union hadn't told the Confederacy that they couldn't keep slaves, then the civil war would not have occured. Think, you inhuman shit stain.

You need to go back to the 8th grade for remedial American History.

Not only did the North NOT tell the South they couldn't keep slaves until HALFWAY THOUGH THE WAR...the Emancipation Proclamation ONLY FREED SLAVES IN THE SOUTH, it expressly did NOT free all slaves.

If you don't believe me, go upstairs and ask your mom.
Yeah ok. The civil war wasn't about slavery. Which is why the south tried to secede after Lincoln's election. Nope. Nothing to do with slavery at all. :lol:

Sure thing pal. Btw, you'd be wise to leave my mother out of this discussion. Got it, boy?
 
The problem the south had was the country having the nerve to elect a republican president.

They rebs were all ready to go in the prior Presidential election..

Fremont lost. If he hadn't, the Civil War would have started in 1856.

And yes, it was all about slavery for the south.

Those four states did not go into rebellion and start a war of aggression over slavery. Those four states didn't start a war over slavery that cost more American lives then all wars before or since.

No one started a war over slavery since both sides practiced wide-spread slavery. The north started the war but it was not over slavery.
Idiot.

You don't even know who started the war.

He has never heard of the term, abolitionist candidate Lincoln..

the left is still crapping their diapers over events that happened about 150 years ago, yet no one seeks revenge over Coke changing it's recipe in 1986.

Both sides didn't " practice wide- spread slavery". There were only slave states and free states. Most of the slave states seceeded but not all. That doesn't make the union pro slavery Corky. Just another (albeit somewhat retarded) attempt at revision.

It's the democratic party's plan to get black votes...you know...so when they get elected they can tell their black consituents that they don't have a say in their Christian beliefs opposing gay marriage.

They already have the black vote.
It was however the Repub governors and Repub state legislators that removed those flags.It would not have happened otherwise.
 
"For the 8 millionth time, the CW was not about slavery. The idea is absurd. The media is telling another of it's whopper lies."

The whopping lie remains any statement that denies that war was about slavery. The war would not have occurred in any other way than it did. Slavery in the border states was eliminated in 1865.
 
You can't think. No one disputes the south approved of slavery. But the north did too since they also had legal slavery throughout the war.
But it seems no one Southern here will agree the South wanted to keep slavery and fought to do so. They pretend the subject doesn't exist while deflecting furiously.

That is part of the long cultivated "Lost Cause" myth.

That is what runs the far left mantra..

Socialism is a lost cause, but they still want all to accept it..
 
...For the 8 millionth time, the CW was not about slavery...
Slavery was the status quo that the South sought to maintain by seceding, in the wake of Lincoln's election.

And, ultimately, in a populist sense, the Civil War evolved into something being fought - in part - to free the slaves.

...The idea is absurd...
Not really.

The contribution of slavery to the casus belli and the evolution of motives is well documented and accepted as established fact.

...The media is telling another of it's whopper lies.

Battle Hymn of the Republic - February, 1862

'Nuff said.
 
Slavery was the status quo that the South sought to maintain by seceding, in the wake of Lincoln's election.

Lincoln was not on the ballot in 10 states..

The fight was over states rights, slavery was just the cause used..

As a panel of historians emphasized in 2011, "while slavery and its various and multifaceted discontents were the primary cause of disunion, it was disunion itself that sparked the war."

Never said otherwise.

What I said was that slavery was an underlying cause, and that that underlying cause became a primary motivating factor, as the war progressed and the populist opinion on the subject evolved.

So then you admit the civil war was not about slavery, but about states rights..
