Then why did they steal every piece of federal property they could get their hands on?
I don't see how anybody can have issue with the mutual respect you describe. I've got no use for the CSA or the politicians who manipulated its birth, but I consider the reb soldiers to generally be honorable fellows. I just think they were unable to see that their true adversaries were their Southern "betters" who ran the Confederate show in Dixie for their own narrow interest.
Thank you, tweetie pie

“In other words, beating the other side in a war.”
Ahhhhh . . . so if the South had WON the war it would have been legal. Got it. Never knew the rule of law was so simple.
“So if I get mugged in the near future, the mugger is not stealing my wallet and watch but merely assuming posession?”
Well, let’s say we were neighbors and I was letting you use my lawnmower but we had a falling out. Yet one day you come over to take the mower because I had let you use it before, and I stopped you. You may call that a mugging but I would call it protecting my property. But of course I use common sense. You would use something other than common sense and I would attack you. Then you would whine about how we had an agreement — unless you were dead.
you've PERMANENTLY ruined YOURSELF & nothing that you post is BELIEVED by anybody here, with the possible exception of "The STUPID Club"; the club members will believe ANYTHING.

laughing AT you.

frankly, what you posted is either FALSE ( because you're too clueLESS to know the TRUTH) or a KNOWING LIE.
in either case, it makes you LOOK stupid/ignorant and/or DISHONEST.

it's just the same as all the DAMNyankees who were "up to their eyes" IN the slave trade, while SAYING that they were "abolitionists".
it's called HYPOCRASY & LYING. (DAMNyankees are MASTERS at DECEIT, including SELF-deceit.)

On the contrary, your posts speak for themselves and your pathological hatred for all things connected with the Union and the Union cause has been well documented.
anytime they "kiss off" the traditional conservatives of dixie, they will return to that SAD status of permanent MINORITY/LOSERS.

would you care for a "do over", as that turkey won't fly??? (instead it just makes you LOOK dumb,hate-FILLED, ignorant & clueLESS.)
laughing AT you.

A more accurate analogy would be if the lawnmower, which happened to be stored in your shed, was jointly owned by the entire neighborhood. Your piece of it was a fraction of the whole, clearly a majority one. You decide to move out of the neighborhood and you demanded that sole ownership of the lawnmower be turned over to you regardless of the wishes of the rest of the owners. And oh, by the way, you weren't going to compensate them for their investment. Now you tell me what is fair or legal or just about that?
But of course I use common sense. You would use something other than common sense and I would attack you. Then you would whine about how we had an agreement — unless you were dead.
Common sense says that jointly owned property does not become yours merely because you want it. Common sense says that everyone who paid for it must be compensated for their investment. Common sense says that to do otherwise is clearly stealing.
I'm willing to let the mouth-foaming hatred that pour from your posts speak for you, and to allow others to 'shake with laughter' at your ridiculous denials.
the flag is a SOLDIER's FLAG at a SOLDIER's MONUMENT.
it it is NEVER coming down from its pole. the LEFTISTS/race-BAITERS/IDIOTS/FOOLS & DAMNyankee BIGOTS can cry/moan/pontificate/rail against it, but it will STAY exactly where it is NOW.
fool with SC & there will be a CSA flag back on the dome & in BOTH house chambers. (push SC folk around & we will push back harder.)

Oops. Meant to say your ownership was a minority one, not a majority.
you USED to "do" SMART posts. what happened to you??? could it be that ASSOCIATING with the wet-brains like "Me SPIN" & "ftd" has caused your brain to wither???
laughing AT you, N-S.

Natural right of rebellion. Win the war and you can write your own laws. As Lincoln said in the first inaugural, "Whenever they shall grow weary of the existing Government, they can exercise their constitutional right of amending it or their revolutionary right to dismember or overthrow it." Do you actually think that if the Americans had lost their revolutionary war, they would have legally still gotten all the British possessions? Of course not. Whose law would apply?
That's the catch. If you lose your rebellion, bad things are going to happen.
