WRONGLY stated, as DM knows.

face it, the war was "mr. linkum's" FAULT & the BLOOD of a MILLION Americans is indelibly on his hands.

NO QUESTION that he STATED exactly that AND that he was THE EXPERT on Black CSA service (until his UNtimely death).

CERTAINLY he knew FAR more than you do about that subject.

btw, i note that the bigoted "nameless, shunned one" is STILL posting to me, even though he has been notified that i NEITHER READ, NOR RESPOND to his IGNORANT, hate-FILLED,evasions & KNOWING falsehoods. as far as i'm concerned, he is dead.

talk about "HAS NO LIFE"!

once more using the term of abuse of "neo-confederate" (or any similar version) marks the USER as a FOOL.

but then, EVERYBODY here KNOWS that about YOU, FOOL.

with the sole exception of YOU, the TRUTHFUL answer is EXTREMELY gullible. as i've said numerous times, you are the only member of the "DY coven",who has BOTH a BRAIN & an EDUCATION.

i'm not at all sure that it isn't still lawful in MD. (MD state laws are BOTH old & antiquated.)

a couple of years ago, a young lady tried to do TRIAL BY COMBAT (with SWORDS!) on her rapist.

i don't know exactly what happened in the end BUT at that time the Montgomery county DA stated that if the MD state government did NOT act quickly , that she might make him into a "shiskebob"! (the YL was reportedly a fencing/saber instructor!)

i CAN tell everyone that several ladies in my office said that they were "pulling for her to KILL him with her saber"!

You are the original poster boy for the most fanatical neo-confederates on FR.

Considering the impossibility of his claims, if he did in fact make them, I would say he did not.

At a time and place where basic training camps did not exist? How gullible do you think we are?

Me thinks that you're wound up too tight.

Forget the meds again?

My interpretation is that Lee falsified the reports so the war would continue.

Lee didn't have the luxury of time, resources or hindsight that Krick had when he compiled his numbers "using newspaper reports and other sources".

However, from the link you provided:

"The summation provided by Krick raises the total of Confederate dead to about four and a half thousand, and the wounded to roughly twelve and a half thousand, but, of course, this is an incomplete total.Unfortunately, some accounts adopt the total of approximately four and a half thousand rebel deaths and present them as killed in action, thereby suggesting that Confederate losses in killed exceeded Union losses in this category by roughly fifty per cent….the fact that this figure allows for mortally wounded is apparently not understood, or ignored .This is a prime example of the most excellent statistical research being used improperly." (emphasis added)

A brief chronology of "Brokeback's" posting history on this thread

#710 It's obvious, bonehead

#711 Your wife doesn't think so

#712 "It's my opinion that you are a numbnuts."

#720 [after being identified as a loudmouth chickensh** poser]... Look, if you want to debate history then post some facts, stats, even opinions are welcome if they are derived at honestly. But if all you want to do is name call and make ignorant accusations, then leave me out of your sophomoric postings and find someone else to trade your nonsensical, vituperation's with.

Lol!

Lol!

Do you write for the liberal press, by any chance? If not, then you should consider a career change as you definitely have the knack of quoting out of context.

But's let's give it a try. From mac_truck attack:

too bad dueling isn't legal huh?

Ouch!

I've confronted my share of sheetheads

a true kkklansman

Hmmmmm......interesting profile that your out of context quotes conjures up, eh.

BTW, do you remember an invitation from me to you sometime back on another thread to engage in 'personal debate'? That seemed to silence your courage through anonymity verbiage.

Me thinks that you're just a big, loud mouth puss.

(Feel free to quote me. Bwahahahaha.....)

well, that's certainly better (IF TRUE) than being BOTH a FOOL & a BIGOT, as you demonstrably are.

actually, there were CSA military training camps. Camp Robinson in southern LA for one. Camp Lone Star in Daingerfield, TX for another. (that's the 2 i can think off, offhand)
