When are you going to come up with some?
“black people somewhere offend me daily...right now Al Sharpton is on his way to Arizona to offend me”
Ditto! The black racists have no problem offending me as a southern boy and calling me a drunken, racist, ignorant, in-bred, redneck for being a white man from the South. We’ve got people here on FR that say those things.
Google ‘1st Alabama Cavalry’.
“The North started trying to get its hands deeper and deeper into the South’s pockets. The South sought to put a stop to it.
Similar thing are happening in these times.”
So what, militants should be able to break off from our country and wage war on our government? I’m all for protests, but we’ll oust our government at the polls. The Confederacy, while having legitimate beef, was a foreign enemy.
Only a propagandist such as yourself denies facts then says he has never seen any, so there is no need to bother with giving you any more.
Nonsense. The south does have a higher enlistment rate than other regions, but the statistics are that they make up about 42% of recruits out of a pool that includes 35% of the military recruitment-age population. Not wildly out of proportion, in other words. The states with the highest military enlistment rates, by they way, are Montana, Alaska, Wyoming and Maine.
>>btw...I got a lot of dead southern kin from plenty of wars since and my three war combat vet father in law (RIP) had a CSA flag on his forearm.<<
I figured as much but you already said it, “these bastards are shameful.”
And only a propagandist such as yourself posts BS as fact.
it’s only divisive due to asshats like you and him
The 1st Alabama Cavalry is my favorite Southern regiment of the war. They certainly had the true nature of the plantation power structure figured out and acted accordingly.
looks like the nest got their email alert
they were a bit slow on this one
I do not hate all things Southern. In post #250 of this thread I express my esteem for the noble warriors of the 1st Alabama Cavalry.
What you have here are some angry black freepers and some not so conservative race baiters who fly out of the same nest.
maybe 3-4 genuine conservatives who loathe the South....race baiting is all the rest do though
I’ve been here a long time and watch them...some are even the same poster with different monikers
and they get caught on occasion posting racist crap to draw their own nest or to make us look bad.
remember them...you will see them say something lib on some topic at some time
one for instance...maybe their leader actually...is very very soft on Islam, Abortion and get this....could we have won WWII without the Communists?
lol....hard to believe how they infect this forum
If you accept that argument, then you’ll accept our current flag being banned by the grievance lobby. You’re being very shortsighted.
You forgot pro-homosexual, he’s very pro-homo.
I appreciate the stories about your family in a different part of the South, but there are many historical references to Southern discontent with the Confederacy. The Confederacy’s collapse was greatly hastened with the discontent many Southerners felt for a regime they saw as being by and for the benefit of the slave holding class. An understanding of the times is very incomplete without a study of the Confederacy’s war against its own people.
...and the entire USMC apparently. Go figure.
That viewpoint is at the heart of my understanding of the conflict.
The invasion of Canada followed a month later..
Interesting. You haven’t the slightest idea what my position is on the Stars & Bars and yet you fall all over yourself to insult and assume.
Pretty much what I’ve come to expect from your kind...
