Quote an official anti-slavery document from the South.
Slavery was wrong, but it was a huge problem that was going to be dealt with eventually, It had been going on for some time.
The North was ramping slavery down, the South vowed they would never ramp it down.
The North did not get religion over night, denounce slavery and declare war to free the slaves.
No not overnight, they had been ramping it down for some time.
You don't believe that fairy tale do you? However Sharpton and Jackson would agree with you.
Sharpton and Jackson agree the sky is blue. Does that mean the sky isn't blue?
No, they didn't, they seceded so they could determine that issue and many more for themselves. However Sharpton and Jackson would be on your side.
They said very plainly that they want to make it clear that slavery is the reason. Sharpton and Jackson don't want to be owned by you.
We broke from England for the same reason the South did, to end oppressive rule by an unreasonable centralized Federal government.
Wrong. We had a Constitution, England didn't. South Carolina's Declaration of Secession makes it clear that slavery was the reason.
Here again Sharpton, Jackson and most liberals see it the same as you.
They don't want to be owned by you.
Mine either, it's a struggle for state's rights, but your new bud Sharpton still thinks that perpetuation of slavery is my heritage because I wish to fly the Confederate Flag and offer alternative history books.
I don't care if you fly the flag or not. All I know is that South Carolina's Declaration of Secession makes it clear that slavery was the reason for secession. Sharpton doesn't want to be owned by you.
If the south had freed all the slaves first, we could have gone in peace?
As South Carolina's Declaration of Secession says, if they would have given up slavery, there would not have been a reason to secede.
If the answer is no....then slavery was not the defining issue. Jackson's on your side so your okay.
South Carolina's Declaration of Secession says slavery was the reason. Jackson doesn't want to be owned by you.
It is not the truth I am afraid of, it is the revisions that come with some versions.
Like ignoring historical documents like Declarations of Secession?
You may like the look of the flag (it is cool looking huh?) but you do not like my right to fly it.
Fly it if you want, I don't care. I have one myself.
I did that above already, any attack on the Confederacy and you will find a willing ally.
Quotes?
Chapter and verse?
If you can't find it, you shouldn't be arguing with me.
Yes, since you are obviously the brighter mind, I shouldn't be arguing with you.
Would you please humor me and answer my hypothetical without rephrasing or redefining it?
If the south had freed all the slaves first, we could have gone in peace?
