It flew over states that believed in slavery

And the US flag flew over EVERY slave ship to touch the borders of this nation. Didn't see abe getting rid of it at the beginning of the war did you? Didn't see any northern states inviting runaway slaves over the border did you? No, as a matter of fact most of those states had laws against free blacks living in their states long before the war. By the shrill tone of the attack, I'm going to guess LLANEY?

Men fought to keep our nation unified. They died for it, and in so doing added their blood to the freedom of slaves. Like it or not, America haters.
