re: #471 CapeCoddah

I linked to nothing.

Exactly. Quoted it in full without a link. Why? Because it was a tourist site and not a place where historians publish their articles? I don’t know.

I grew up in and bolted from a family of racists, among other things. There is no such thing as a reformed racist. You are, or you are not. Those who “were” racists still are. They just hide it well.

I disagree. If what you say is true, wouldn’t you be a racist as well, having been born among and raised by them?

And, I Identified my source.

re: #451 CapeCoddah

Article posted is written by Randy Golden, a respected Georgian civil war historian.

re: #452 CapeCoddah

Not from wiki answers or fact check. From actual recorded historical fact.

re: #460 CapeCoddah

Mr Golden is not a professor, or an instructor. He is a Civil War Historian. He is a neighbor of a family member of mine, and I have spoken with him personally. He is not famous, just very well schooled in the Civil War, fascinated by it as I always have been. He is an avid hiker, also.

Yes, you identified your source. Not the real estate agent, the other one, a neighbor of a relative of yours. Why no link? Because “actual recorded historical fact” doesn’t usually come from tourist sites?
