[varina davis]

Words fail me to describe such tripe.

[ChadsDad]

"it is worth considering the similarities of the historical Confederacy and the existing al-Qaeda terrorist network."

I stopped reading here. Profanity started forming...

[billbears]

Now why did you ping me to this? I'm just going to be mad all day long. What an absolute idiot. Perhaps he hasn't read about the terrorists that burned the houses of our ancestors, killed innocent women and children, raped and pillaged our land, going above and beyond the 'call of duty' to murder civilians during Sherman's March?

I believe this is the same college newspaper that launched Jayson Blair into journalism immortality at the New York Times.

[OldPossum]

Thanks for the e-mail address.

I wrote Mr. Wilson this note:

"I read your article, "Southern Terrorists."

Stick to math. History is not your strong point."

[Constitution Day]

This sounds ALMOST like the talking points of our favorite book-peddler.

I posted this for educational purposes only. To see what our colleges and universities are being exposed to.

The article is unfounded, contains historical innacuracies, and wholly based on a misinformed opinion.

[rwfok]

For all the good it may represent to white Southerners, it will always be a symbol of oppression, humiliation and intolerance to blacks.



Speak for yourself Adam.

You may want to ask the Admin Moderator to add a Barf Alert in the title to avoid flaming arrows in your direction.

[Sir Gawain]

Isn't that the dude from the Subway commercials?

[Brian Mosely]

A book by a local historian here went through all of the provost marshalls reports from this area and found death lists of local citizens and such...the terrorists were in the south all right...

[azhenfud]

He'll be along in a few, I regret....

I'm not even gonna quote this idiot, but in reviewing his fourth paragraphic spill, we could take his "logic" (if it may be qualified as such) back a step further. We could ask why would blacks continue to embrace their African decendancy when it was from there slavery originated and horrors untold were committed against those unwilling to surrender to servitude. But, we won't do that.

[Gurn]

Why even post this degenerate Yankee's B.S.?

[JoJo Gunn]

"How many Germans are proud of what they accomplished in the 1930s? Adolf Hitler did a great job rescuing the German economy, which flourished under the Nazis. Why not celebrate that glorious heritage and ignore the terror of his regime?"

Why is it that I read this and think of Bull Connor, a member of the Democratic Party? And that the Republicans are the ones who pushed the Civil Rights Act of 1964 through, despite a lot of opposition of the Democrats?

Were many blacks free in the South? And didn't blacks own slaves? Didn't blacks in Africa gather their own when the slave ships appeared on the horizon? Weren't there blacks who fought on the Confederate side? Were the Yankees all that accomodating of blacks before the Civil War?

Apparently math majors who are members of the Greivance Industry have selective memories too....

[TomServo]

We need to rethink our nation's historical perception of the Confederacy.

And you Sir, our permanently victimized "brother", need to pull your head out of your rectum.

Here's your shoehorn.

[vetvetdoug]

The idiot from Vanderbilt was a math professor. I see a pattern emerging. Also, this guy is a liberal democrat from Maryland. Another pattern. Could this tripe be taught in our esteemed locations of higher education?
