One of the reasons I don't respect the planter class is what they did to my mudsill ancestors and many thousand like them.
As far as Lee, I respect the fact that he recognized the stupidity of secession. Too bad Virginia did not stay in the Union or it might have been Robert E. Lee burning South Carolina instead of Sherman.
I suppose that you hate Big Oil, Big Tobacco, Big Pharma, Big Fast Food, etc., for what they do to us 'mudsills', too.
It's kinda interesting that you despise Southern planters for alleged atrocities against your mudsill ancestors but you but admire the yankee rabble who did far, far worse.
I think you've got issues....
As far as Lee, I respect the fact that he recognized the stupidity of secession.
But yet he fought so hard and gallantly to ensure it's success....
Too bad Virginia did not stay in the Union or it might have been Robert E. Lee burning South Carolina instead of Sherman.
Lee was an honorable man, totally unlike that rabble from the north. It is inconceivable that he would commit atrocities against noncombatants the way that your stinking heros did.
Don't believe it? Read High Tide at Gettysburg for a detailed account of the behavior that Lee expected from his troops when they were on foreign soil and compare that to your stinking yankee heros actions.
