"What is a bit unsettling is the thought that you may wish to practice what you believe....since you believe, apparently, that offing a president whom you vehemently disagree with is a good idea and so long as good Southern (Confederate) lead isnt wasted in the process."--thumper1960
Reread that sentence, especially the first part, and tell me that it doesn't sound like you're talking about a sitting president and trying to bait texconfederate. Now, you either thought about that, or you didn't. If you didn't, perhaps you need to choose your words more carefully.
Now, Can we assume (bad choice of a word), for the sake of argument, that youd not have approved of JWBs actions had you been alive in April, 1865?
If I'm a Southern? I've lost my kin, my land, my livestock? Yankee troops are patrolling the streets? Carpetbaggers are living in my home? Are you kidding me? Would a Jew have approved of Hitler's assassination in 1945?
My goodness what a drama queen.
Unlike the Jews who were forced to endure and survive their circumstance, the south brought all that onto themselves.
Seems to me that anyone, president or common garden variety “Yankee”, who torques a Rebel is in serious danger of being killed by the Southerner.
You all talk with such hate filled venomous vitriol about a war that’s been over for 145 years. One would think that you guys actually lived through it. Well, you didn’t. You have some romanticized notion of what the old South was, but you really don’t know what it was like. You compare Lincoln to Hitler, but you are incapable of truly doing so since you’ve never lived under the regimes of either.
Why you all can’t get it through your thick, addled skulls is hard to understand. The war is O-V-E-R. The South lost. L-O-S-T. It ain’t gonna “rise again”. The old South of Jeff Davis and Beauregard is finished. It’s in the dustbin of history. It’s gone, kaput, dead, buried, defunct. The nation, as a whole, is better for it. The government of the Southern oligarchy was unsustainable and was bound to end. It’s simply a shame that so many fine Southern boys had to die because of the brainwashing by the elites.
Your supposed ancestors mad bad choices. One of them was to follow the Confederates into the abyss. Another really bad choice was to support the likes of the KKK and further bring hardship upon the South for their hate and stupidity.
It’s too bad that the South was crushed. really, it is. It’s too bad the intransigent Confederate leadership forced the hands of the Union armies and had your cities burned, your crops laid waste and your post-war governments controlled. And, it’s sad that you all asked for it.
Get over it, already. And, if ya can’t, just remember that past experience with derelicts informs possible future events. Being hate-filled today will lead, ultimately, to hate-filled acts tomorrow. I see more than one JWB wannabe among your ranks. The question is what president under what circumstances and with what trigger is going to get one of your JWB wanna-be’s to finally snap and start looking for the backdoor to a theater box seat. Could it happen? Perhaps. Would it? Not sure. Will it? probably not. Most of you are too yellow to do anything but bitch and moan. Hardly any of you have the stones to do more than orally fart Rebel slogans.
*I* don’t have to try to goad one of you internet Confederate Rebel pretenders to say something stupid. Eventually, by virtue of your collective mindsets, you’ll do it all on your own.
I will put in a good word in your defense, though. I’d hope that they would understand you’re all not like Tim McVeigh. More like the Dukes of Hazzard, playing Johnny Reb with a Matchbox General Lee.
