I do not deride any schools as long as a consequence for your action is taught. 18 is soon and death much sooner than you think.

I do deride revisionist history. The civil war was not about slavery and never will be.

Of course it was. It is central to every sub-argument that any lost causer makes. Money, culture, historical precedent, geography, "states-rights" - they all exist as a factor because slavery was a component.
