"Right" huh? Let's look at some numbers:

Total American Deaths for all wars except the Civil War: 641,800

Total Deaths During the American Civil War: 623,026

The Confederacy tore this nation apart and got 623,026 of our ancestors killed so you could keep your slaves. That's neither right nor might.

I returned about 3 hours ago from a 12 hour drive through NC, Tenn, Ga, and SC. I saw approximately 10 rebel flags displayed in front of homes. Most were run down, junk strewn trailers or shacks. One was flying in front of a well maintained property.
