If we're going to discuss the war dude get the facts straight. Antietam Maryland September 1862 and Gettysburg July 1863.

What is your point here? I'm trying to fathom what you are getting at. Yes, of course, AFTER the Union had repeatedly invaded the South, the Confederates eventually got around to invading them back.

Are you arguing that because the South invaded in 1862 that this justifies the North invading in 1861?

Here’s what is really odd about these Lincoln Lovers. They actually think that the South was an existential threat to the North. They have this preposterous notion that the South could have militarily beaten the North. It is crazy. The South’s strategy was statement followed by a negotiated peace. They use the PA and KY invasions as some kind of reason to believe that the South was going to conquer and occupy the North! Like I said it’s crazy what these people think.

The North didn’t ‘’invade’’ the South Lampster. It was the other way around.
