I think it is safe to say that in life and especially in war there are bad apples in every bunch, fanatics and sympathizers. The history of the War between the States needs to be looked at in it's broad scope.

Bad and Good on both sides. We've certainly covered that here by covering stories of exceptional and not so exceptional military leaders on both sides. We've covered heroic stories of individual troops, on both sides. The good, bad and ugly exists in the human spirit so it is only natural that as Americans whichever side you tend to support would have had it's share of all the human traits.

Thank you. My point exactly. Plenty of bad acts to go around.
