But the republicans won
Apparently blacks believe that the results of the Civil War, gave them the freedom to murder their own kind in increasing numbers over the past 158 years since the war ended. Their African ancestors captured neighboring tribesmen, and sold them to the white slavers for bounty, but the generations that have evolved since the war ended, expanded on the practice of turning on their neighbors, in order to enhance their lives, and fill their pockets with the profits that came with it.
I guess the super duper intellignent mayor is unaware of what political party ran the South and formed the KKK
What destruction was done to the Constitution?
Which one?
The one we seems to be losing now?
The mayor of Chicago is not a leading democrat. He is run of the mill, but not leading. If he isn’t thrown out of office early, he certainly will not win another election.
As I was born & raised in the South I would like to propose a little bit of history that is much lacking on some truths. My great grandfather who lived in Tennessee, went just far enough north to join the Union Army. He was not the only one. There were many of them.
I had great great uncles in the confederate army. My great grandfather on the other side of the family joined up with some confederate irregulars, was captured, paroled and joined the Union Army. He fought at Cedar Creek and Winchester.
DEMOCRAT Robert Byrd agrees from Hell.
Anyone who knows anything about the War Between the States was by any standard outside of the USA anything resembling a “Civil War”. Per the US Constitution and military activity, it was a conventional war between two groups of allied sovereign entities, which is why most if not all signing nations of the Congress of Vienna of 1819 chose neutrality and were willing to trade with either side, which is why France and Great Britain both chose to trade with Confederate States and were also willing to trade with Union States even without formally recognizing the Confederacy as an independent nation.
Wrong. Part of “Democrat” Virginia (AKA West Virginia) seceded to side with the Union and the State of Kentucky never voted to secede at all. Lincolns Emancipation only applied to states “In Rebellion” so both remained slave states until after the war ended. Slavery wasn’t until the 13th Amendment was ratified later on.
“Are these extremist Republicans here in the room with you now?”
Yes, I know all that. But let’s not get bogged down in trivia. Keep it simple for potential Democrat voters of today.
Democrats held the slaves.
Republicans freed the slaves.
And as a side note, I was recently reading about the ‘Free State of Jones’. Jones was a county in Mississippi that sided with the Union, and fought the Confederacy. I can across the story by accident. Interesting stuff.

Lol. What a maroon.
Slavery was a horror. Black Americans have accomplished so much.....yet there are times when I wonder if America would be better off if Blacks were never imported.
Guys like this are a weight, a drain, our our society and he is an elected official.
Weird.
Yikes.!! Someone give that man a history book..!
Dims just changed the plantation...went from cotton to urban areas.
Sure he isn’t related to Georgia Rep. Hank Johnson?
Yup. We've been fed a load of Bullsh*t about why the war was fought, but it boils down to rich liberals in the North getting angry they were going to be cut out of controlling the south's trade with Europe.
Yes, New York controlled all the cotton trades with Europe.
72$% of DC's revenue came from the South trading with Europe.
