No. You need to look up what I told you about Lieutenant David Dixon Porter. You need to stop playing this silly game where you ignore evidence and simply regurgitate the same old crap people have been spouting for years.

Lieutenant Porter was trying to start a ware with direct attacks on the Confederates.

Stop brushing this away because it doesn't fit in with what you wish to believe.

“Lieutenant Porter was trying to start a ware with direct attacks on the Confederates.”

Who fired the first shots?

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lieutenant Porter did not. Neither did Lincoln. No sane person doubts it was the South who first attacked. Perhaps no other fact of the war is as well established or as undebatable as that!

This is like debating a 3 year old. But Lost Causers aren’t big on history. Never have been. They don’t like to admit the South fought for slavery, either.
