Why not let them speak for themselves?

Well that's the opinion of one, now i'll patiently wait while you put the other hundred thousand or so forceably drafted Irish opinions up for comparison.

And when the Confederacy began conscripting free blacks and slaves at the end of the war, what personal interest did they have in the war?

I think you are trying to put forth a "Well *THEY* did it too! " argument. (Known as a tu quoque.)

So you think evil by the South justifies evil by the North? That explains a lot. I guess evil is okay so long as the people you support are doing it/did it.

I'll try...as soon as you can show something that supports your claim on the number drafted.
