re: #44 Archangelus

Lincoln was the same sort if tyrant, and personally responsible for the deaths of over 800,000 Americans in a war that was unnecessary and unconstitutional.

This is so wrong that I don’t even know where to begin. What the fuck do they teach in US History in the South?

I mean, seriously, Lincoln hadn’t even been sworn into office when seceded South Carolina and then fired on Ft Sumter (which was, for anyone keeping score at home, a US Army base). And technically, it wasn’t a war, because the Confederacy was not a separate country - it was a rebellion. Which, also, technically speaking, was unnecessary and unconstitutional, but not because of Lincoln’s actions…
