If I’ve read my War of Secession history correctly, it was the South that bombarded Ft. Sumter first and prior to that cadets from VMI fired upon a supply ship to the fort a few months before. Had the North invaded the South or fired upon the South first?
Silly Conservative....
Things like “Truth”, “Facts” or “Proof” no longer matter to the sheeple majority. The ONLY thing that matters is how the currently-approved Radical Dem Meme is spun and presented.

It's naive and silly crap like this that makes us lose.
"Look, I'm not racist! Here's proof!
And then a long boring diatribe about American history and the Civil War.
Yes, you are factually correct. You know your history. You have presented a logical and well written argument.
And..... A Liberal woudld destroy you in 2 seconds with 2 words...... "You're Racist"
This stuff doesn't work anymore. Most people in this country not only don't know ANYTHING about history or the Civil War, they can't even spell the words "civil" or "war."
Your point is one engineered out of half truths to buttress your intended goal, that of excusing secession. The FACT is nearly EVERY southern state issued a secession statement and in those statements slavery is mentioned above all reasons. So, if you take the word of the ACTUAL people who seceded, and not that of lost cause apologists, you’d come to understand that slavery was the main (though not the only) reason the south left the union.

I’m just wondering when and if the Democrats will apologize for wanting to keep slavery?
Doesn’t matter about facts and hostory..what matters is what liberals believe...about the flag, global warming, gay marriage. It is a waste if time to reason and argue.
The Confederate flag is a piece of cloth, an inanimate object incapable of feelings and therefore incapable of being racist. It is the people who misused the flag for their own purposes that were the racists.
