Yes he got what he deserved in the end. A grateful nation and a national monument in Washington, DC.

BTTT

The fort belonged to the federal government. It didn’t matter where it was located. The aggression was on the part of the slavrocracy.

“The South wanted to continue in slavery. “

Sure, but so did some northern States. In fact, Jim Crow laws were alive and well in the North. Even Lincoln sought to keep freed slaves out of Illinois. The Northern States may have been a few years ahead of the southern States in ridding themselves of slavery, but they were not of clean hands by any means. That, and it wouldn’t have been long before slavery was a goner in the south, too.

It’s interstng that you do not mention John Brown and his followers. Terrorists, no?

“Now we have a mortar wall with fifty marbles embedded in it.”

Thank you...an interesting analogy...

[Blood of Tyrants]

Another person who spouts only what they were indoctrinated with in public skule.

[Blood of Tyrants]

I was thinking a bullet in the head for his tyranny.

[GGpaX4DumpedTea]

Classic response to the truth by someone who doesn’t like it...

[rockrr]

Sure, but so did some northern States

Every northern state either had abolished slavery or had a defined path to emancipation.

In fact, Jim Crow laws were alive and well in the North.

Jim Crow laws were uniquely southern. The north did have black codes that bore some similarity.

That, and it wouldn’t have been long before slavery was a goner in the south, too.

Not when you permanently enshrine the Particular Institution into your constitution and the cornfederates did.

[rockrr]

You’re a disgusting pig.

[GGpaX4DumpedTea]

“What a better world this would be if the south would have picked their own dam cotton!”

John Deere does it for them now, and with machines made in the north (John Deere Des Moines Works)...

...guess that makes it all John Deere’s fault...they didn’t invent their cotton pickers soon enough!

[Fast Moving Angel]

Spot on!

[Blood of Tyrants]

And you are a effing retard with your head so far up your ass you need a window to see out of.

[rockrr]

Well with any luck a little of what you wish for will come back on ya.

[Blood of Tyrants]

What AM I wishing for? Have I wished ill on anyone? Last time I checked, Lincoln was still dead.

[ought-six]

Good grief. I was actully trying to help you out. When one habitually misuses a word one necessarily calls into question one’s basic argument. In other words, if you don’t know the proper words to use in making your point, your point is disregarded as immaterial, and is thus ignored.

[Nuc 1.1]

Of course the south did. The sout SOS, Toombs argued against firing on the fort. If they had not, things would have been much different. Slavery was a great evil. Freeing the slaves would have changed a severely tainted cause and turned it into a moral and just cause.

"I was thinking a bullet in the head"

I intensely dislike Øbozo but I would never wish him dead. One, because it's disrespectful and two, because its dazzlingly stupid. To wish assassination of ANY president is contemptible and the product of a diseased mind.

You do not belong among honorable people.

[mhutcheson]

Excellent; kudos.
