[Non-Sequitur]

But the Northern savior said IT wasn't about slavery...

From the Northern point of view it wasn't about slavery. But from the Southern point of view it was.

[stand watie]

from the southern side it was MOSTLY but NOT totally about getting the boot of the northern ELITES off of southerners necks.(as i've quoted, numerous times, an old grad school prof of mine: "Things in history are simple only to SIMPLETONS.")

the reason for the WBTS is the SAME as it is in our dealings with the northern/socialist leviathan NOW = GET OUT of our LIVES, tend ONLY to your own business & leave us ALONE.
