“Since we are on a “one way road to hell”, you may as well listen to AC DC song of “Highway to Hell.”

You and AC DC are both correct.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l482T0yNkeo This is Highway to hell performed by AC DC.

Circa April 12, 1861, Fort Sumter, South Carolina our great nation was torn apart by civil war. The Union was correct in preserving the Union. The South was not correct. However, if the Union was astute this war would have never happened. The basics of the civil war were economics and political power. That is always the reason for war. Lincoln was a great president as he preserved the Union by force. Lincoln had many flaws. Oddly he considered the Black Man inferior. But, at the same time he knew how horrible slavery was and fought it while the South was still in the Union. He was quite politically content to allow slavery to continue in the South but refused its expansion to the West.

As mentioned Lincoln was a great man with flaws as great as his greatness.

If the South was wrong then I hope I never see you support TEXAS or any other State when they want to secede.
