Cut the slander, you sleazy lying douchebag. Everyone following this thread knows I don't support slavery. Only a douchebag would claim otherwise.I have never claimed that slave owners can do no wrong. However, they are entitled to defend their territory, and Ft Sumter was definitely a part of their territory. They did nothing wrong by firing on the Union scallywags who were trespassing on it.You are the one defending the actions of the rebel slave states with your theory that slave owners can do no wrong.
Meanwhile it was troops of the rebel slave states who fired on American soldiers that started the war.
Lincoln started the war by invading Virginia. That is beyond any doubt.
You slavery apologists keep repeating that as if you say it often enough you can bring slavery back to the Confederacy.
Well lets see.
You support the rights of the Confederate States to own slaves.
Pure horseshit. I simply stated an irrefutable historical fact: The Constitution protected the right of Americans to own slaves. This was true in the North as well as the South.
You support the rights of the Confederate States to leave the Union to keep their slaves.
You argue that the freedom of 3,000,000 slaves is not worth the deaths of 850,000 Americans.
Only a bonehead would believe it was. Every other country on the planet abolished slavery without fighting a war over it. The theory that the United States couldn't do likewise doesn't pass the laugh test..
I asked before how many lives would you be willing to lose in order to free 3,000,000 slaves.
You have answered that question- you don't think that a single life should have been lost to free 3,000,000 slaves.
And no one is surprised by this.
