according to THE LIBERATOR in 1865 there were more slaves in the north than there had been in 1860. therefore you damnyankees were hardly "ramping down the number of slaves" in YOUR states.

If that were true, it would be because they were taking advantage of the war to escape that fine Southern Hospitality.

BTW, General Benjamin Butler of the damnyankee army was SELLING captured slaves on the New Orleans slave block in 1863!

As I've said a hundred times, the South seceded for slavery, the North fought to preserve the Union.

MOST of the slaves sold were either free men & women OR CSA soldiers, who had been captured. 1/5 of the sale price went to the auctioneer (a union colonel-this is why auctioneers are called colonel today!), 1/5 to Gen Butler and the other 3/5 to the damnyankee army.

That excuses all of the immorality of the South?

face it #3, the damnyankees were ALWAYS hypocrytes and scum. nothing more nothing less.

Apparently God-sanctioned, they did win, the result of which got rid of your filthy lucre cash cow of slavery. They fought to preserve the union. I'm sure that there weren't many that fought to abolish slavery. It doesn't matter now. That proves that Lincoln and the Radical Republicans were indeed very special people. They alone led the fight to get rid of slavery in this country. Thank God for Lincoln and the Radical Republicans. They didn't listen to people like you from the North or the South who say slavery was OK because it was legal or that we were doing the slaves favor by giving them room and board. The Slavocrats said they fought for Constitutional freedom, who's the hypocritical scum?

are you as dim as your posts indicate? all you are doing is mouthing the same old tired,foolish, ignorant, arrogant anti-southron drivel of the nothern revisionists of liberal academia. if things were as simple as you suggest, there would have been no war. the damnedyankees cared NOTHING about the slaves- NOTHING! lincoln himself said that indians & blacks were NOT HUMAN. his opinion was shared by at least 99% of northern whites.

once again, things are simple ONLY to the SIMPLE.

as i have said before, you really should read something besides propaganda.

1. there were more slaves in the north in 1865 because the damnyankees were holding more slaves! no other reason.

2. Ben "the BEAST" Butler selling slaves for the good of the damnyankee high command & himself illustrates nothing except that he & and all the others of the yankee high command were interested in nothing but $$$$$$$ & POWER.

the WBTS was, once again, about the arrogant, hatefilled damnyankees lust to CONTROL/DOMINATE the south politically & economically, while continuing to do whatever was in THEIR personal interest. every other excuse was just eyewash to fool the credulous & stupid.
