Don't spin the Civil War

The Civil War is about to loom very large in the popular memory. We would do well to be candid about its causes and not allow the distortions of contemporary politics or long-standing myths to cloud our understanding of why the nation fell apart.

The coming year will mark the 150th anniversary of the onset of the conflict, which is usually dated to April 12, 1861, when Confederate batteries opened fire at 4:30 a.m. on federal troops occupying Fort Sumter. Union forces surrendered the next day, after 34 hours of shelling.

“I have no purpose to introduce political and social equality between the white and black races. There is a physical difference between the two, which, in my judgment, will probably forever forbid their living together upon the footing of perfect equality. I . . . am in favor of the race to which I belong having the superior position.” [p. 11]

“What I would most desire would be the separation of the white and black races.” (Springfield, July 17, 1858)
“. . . I will to the very last stand by the law of this State, which forbids the marrying of white people with negroes.” (Charleston, Illinois, September 18, 1858)

NS was a ZOT overdue. His only purpose on FR was to spread doubt about conservatism anyway he could.He regularly preyed on those who were not experienced enough to know the difference.Thats why a lot of us rode his a$$ out of town.

All I can say is “NEXT!”

Oh I was and am Way done with this trashy thread. What I posted was its epitaph. . . and I did not like the way it ended.

[Lee'sGhost]

I prefer to use she/he/it. Say it all together.

Hehehehehe

[rockrr]

LOL. In true Lost Cause Loser form you didn’t like the way it ended because, as happens so often, the south lost. So tell me mstar, how many times are you going to come in, fling some poo, and then retreat shouting “I’m done with this!”?

And, oh by the way moe-jo....everybody is somebody else’s roll - even you.

[rockrr]

You complain about the speech of others but obviously cannot control your own tongue. You post things that are easily as offensive and inflammatory of anything you accuse others of doing.

More Liberal Projection™ on display.

roll=troll ;-)

[Thumper1960]

Whiner.

[Thumper1960]

The lost causers can’t help it. Either agree with their lovelorn longing for the segregated South or you’re a troll/anti-American/anti-Conservative/Lincoln lover/etc./ad nauseum.

In real life, I tend to shrug them off. They’re insignificant children who never played well with the sane.
