Then when you were exposed, you deny and then race to set up another straw man subject >>> "demand on the part of the Davis government and the second made it clear that there was no offer to pay for any of the property they had stolen".
Outright nonsense and evasion on your part.
Total nonsense. I posted the relevant parts completely and in context. There was no offer to negotiate the principle issue - the illegal Southern secession. Only a demand to accept it as fact. And if you look at the history of the Southern legislation on this issue, and the way it got watered down over time, then there was no interest on the part of Davis's government to pay for anything that they had already stolen or were demanding.
