You have bought in to every Massachsetts argument about the causes of the war. The Christians like Stone wall Jackson, Pat Cleburne, and Robert E. Lee knew the South’s economy was being unfairly pilfered by the North. Men like William Wilberforce made the moral case against slavery but what to do wth all those slaves whose trade brought northern profits. The answer was a gradual transition from slave to wage slave (like me). Instead the war destroyed a generation of our best men and led to the Yankee/communist/Godless country the USA is becoming. Scalawags like you think Reconstruction excesses were a just punishment for the South but now the whole nation totters on the abyss. As ex-Confederate general ubal Early said, “What a gentle institution slavery must have been to so well prepared the Negro for the ballot box”.
Here's a quote from the South Carolina Articles of Secession:
"The right of property in slaves was recognized by giving to free persons distinct political rights, by giving them the right to represent, and burthening them with direct taxes for three-fifths of their slaves; by authorizing the importation of slaves for twenty years; and by stipulating for the rendition of fugitives from labor. We affirm that these ends for which this Government was instituted have been defeated, and the Government itself has been made destructive of them by the action of the non-slaveholding States."
Here's a quote from Mississippi's:
"Our position is thoroughly identified with the institution of slavery – the greatest material interest of the world."
From Georgia's:
"For the last ten years we have had numerous and serious causes of complaint against our non-slaveholding confederate States with reference to the subject of African slavery."
Should I quote more of the other Dims secessionist articles of confederation?
