re: #227 Blind Frog Belly White
The South took up arms to support the most vile and egregious cause for which Americans ever went to war, and one of the worst for which any modern nation-state went to war. It is a stain on American history and so far from honoring the ‘heroes’ of the Confederate side we should be ashamed of them.
Don’t I know it. I grew up in a state that celebrated MLK on the same day as Stonewall Jackson and Robert E. Lee for years.
