The fact that you can equate what happened in 1861 to the Japanese of the mid-20th century is very revealing.
The reason why I waste my time debating neo-Yankees is to try and gain some perspective on the mindset of the 19th century Yankee through the lens of their contemporaries. It is always been impossible for me to truly understand the motives of the 19th century Yankee; I really am on a quest to understand.
It is important to me because I think the USA is doomed as the Constitution has been turned into a sick parody of itself at this point. It is flawed and a socialist collective government is being formed right in front of our eyes, and the ole Constitution hasn't changed in about 70 years. Tom, George, James and Ben didnt create the Constitution so that I would end up feeling like a sailor on a sinking ship being told to go down with the ship or else. If alive today they would acknowledge the faults of their once venerable document.
