Read any of the books about the South back then, and every single Reb knew they could whip a dozen Yanks. Every single time there was a parade or an article in the paper, or anything else, Johnny Reb was going to show those Yankees.

Mebbe they just liked having someone to kick around, like the slaves?
It made even the poor whites feel like they were better than someone.
