And STAND one of the other things I have never done in all of our discussions is to attack the courage and honor of the southern soldier.

The leadership of the confederacy, the Klu Klux Klan and the southern democrats of the last 140 years are my only real targets, of course you have spent as much of the same amount of time defending those I attack instead of recognizing that all that has been evil in the south can be blamed on them because they were the originators of such evil.

Why do you defend evil men?

i defend only honorable men/women.

it's your PERCEPTION of "reality" in your own "twisted little world", that is at issue.

frankly, too, i despise turncoat southerners,i,e. scalawags, & discount most, if not all they say, as LIES, absent PROOF to the contrary.

I would take a lesson from General Grant, and go beyond the neo-confederates in my admiration for the southern soldier.

Tennesee provided 55 regiments to fight for their country, the United States of America.

Every southern state contributed regiments to the Union Army, except South Carolina. (Some soldiers from other regiments were from South Carolina, but they had to leave their state to gain enough freedom to join up.)

That lack of South Carolina regiments fighting against the rebellion, was because of its unique status "Too small to be a country, too large to be an asylum".
