the WHOLE NATION should FORMALLY apologise for what the army did to INNOCENTS in the southland.

we southrons want NO $$$$$, just that everyone stop:

1.attacking our blood-spattered,tattered battleflags & other CSA symbols,

2.attacking the memory of our dixie HERO-MARTYRS,

3. demanding that our memorials & gravesites be removed/covered/forgotten.

4.denying the truth about the mass MURDERS, TORTURE & RAPES of the INNOCENT POWs & CIVILIANS,

5.HATING southerners & the southland.

a NATIONAL DAY OF MOURNING & REMBERENCE would do much to promote healing of our many wounds, north & south.

Not going to happen. Accept that.

1.attacking our blood-spattered,tattered battleflags & other CSA symbols,

Americans have the right to free speech. Many Americans find the Confederate flag offensive and they are free to say so. Don't like it? Too bad.

2.attacking the memory of our dixie HERO-MARTYRS

You sound like a Palestinian, with your talk of martyrs. Again, Americans have the right to critisize whoever they want, including dead traitors. Don't like it? Too bad.

3. demanding that our memorials & gravesites be removed/covered/forgotten.

If a community decides to remove a memorial or gravesite, that's their right.

4.denying the truth about the mass MURDERS, TORTURE & RAPES of the INNOCENT POWs & CIVILIANS,

Everyone knows atrocities were commited by both sides during the Civil War. Again, why do you care so much? These are things that happened 150 years ago to people you don't know. Who cares?

5.HATING southerners & the southland.

You are such a liberal. You're determined to claim victim status. How lame.

Let's see- out of our last 5 Presidents, 4 were from the South. Other than a few liberal extremists, nobody hates the South. You have a persecution/inferiority complex. Get over it.

a NATIONAL DAY OF MOURNING & REMBERENCE would do much to promote healing of our many wounds, north & south.

Pointless. Any wounds that exist are only in the minds of a small group of fanatics. The vast majority of people couldn't care less.
