I stand with Stonewall Jackson, Robert E. Lee, Jeb Stuart, Braxton Bragg, Patrick Cleburne, Nathan Bedford Forrest, A.P. Hill, James Longstreet, and the other gallant men who fought for Independence against the tyranny of the North.

I honor the soldiers of the Army of Northern Virginia, the Army of Tennessee, the Army of Mississippi, and the Army of Trans-Mississippi.

I have spoken at memorial services for the honored dead of the South.

I count it an honor to have spoken to Sons of the Confederate Veterans across this country.

I stand for Dixie!

I agree with what you say in that post. However, I am for freedom above all else, I am for freedom of Speech. I am a Southerner in Louisiana.

I think that if Stonewall was not accidentally killed by friendly fire that the South would have won the Civil war.

Stonewall defeated several union armies each much larger in span of weeks.

Military historians consider Jackson to be one of the most gifted tactical commanders in United States history. His Valley Campaign and his envelopment of the Union Army right wing at Chancellorsville are studied worldwide even today as examples of innovative and bold leadership. He excelled as well in other battles: the First Battle of Bull Run (where he received his famous nickname “Stonewall”), Second Bull Run, Antietam, and Fredericksburg.
