What I find offensive is that these two launched a war to preserve an economic system based on the use of slave labor. As to the questions I asked you: If the South had won would they have ended slavery? And would they have been gracious to the North in it’s defeat. And finally why do you continue to defend these traitors, that’s what they were. As to Davis, that moron was one of the most prominent reasons the South lost the war.

And if cotton thrived in cold climates you wouldn't have the luxury of claiming the moral high ground. The North was hardly clean and pure in this business. You are aware, I'm sure, that when almost all the Northern states abolished slavery they allowed a grace period whereby slave owners could sell their slaves down South to avoid financial loss?
