I wish more freepers remembered these acts of reconciliation and kindness when discussing events of the Civil War.
I do too. It may not be in their memory to even know about the reconciliation. But numerous examples, many involving major figures. Including CSA veterans as being US Veterans, by Act of Congress. Peace was Made by these actions. And these clowns today are able to be manipulated to try and open the wounds so many devoted their lives, and indeed, died— to heal. Senseless.
