you might want to read #847 & 849.

the "filth that flowed down from the north" was just that = FILTH.

what happened to MY family was FAR from unique.

if you were NOT a white person (& particularly if you were poor) , you were convenient PREY to the "criminals in blue uniforms".

this was especially true, if you were unfortunate enough to be a "comely" female SLAVE. the attitude of all too many union soldiers was: "she's HERE & she ain't white OR really HUMAN, so the officers don't care what we do".("Philly", that's the sort of behavior that you're defending.)

fwiw,attitudes like YOURS are a MAIN reason that we southerners MAY have forgiven,but have NOT forgotten & will NOT FORGET what was done to our families, EVER!

swattie, when and where did this happen?

Did it happen at all?

Are you sure it wasn't the Confederates who did it?

I think you were unhinged like Shelton IV.

So what you are saying is your “fathers” weren’t man enough to protect your women.
