She’s Right About Civil War

[Bush92]

#1) The Confederate States had ceceded from the Union, wrote a constitution and sent diplomats abroad.
#2) The North invaded the South.
#3) The Federal Army had whole units of immigrants who did not speak English. If you had a bunch of Germans marching through your town...you would think them as foreign invaders.
#4) When a confederate POW was asked by a Union officer, “ Why are you fighting this war soldier?” The confederate answered, “Because your down here.”
So the confederate soldier felt they were defending their nation.

All I've ever heard the Civil War when I lived down South, was the "War of Northern Aggression."

That’s the truth of how Southerners felt and do feel. CNN trying to call out the Senator for revisionist history. That’s simply not true. She is right.

 

[SobieskiSavedEurope]

Abey poo Lincoln, ruined the Founding Father's concept, the concept of "State rights" no????

 

[candycorn]

She’s a racist. CNN was right about that

Well it is CNN, right? Nothing coming from that cesspool has an ounce of credibility. I'd trust the National Enquirer before I would CNN.

If the South wanted to be left alone, why did they start the war by firing on a U.S. Federal installation that was doing nothing to them?

In America, it is illegal and unconstitutional to write your own constitution. And the same was true back then.

See the Nullification Crisis 1832. Lincoln had already stated that secession would not be allowed. Andrew Jackson asked for a force bill in 1832 so the South could expect said same. Also, the South was not being left alone. Northern members of Congress, in order to protect wealthy industrialist, had pushed for tariffs that would have been detrimental to southern planters.

Not in their opinion. They felt they had voluntarily joined the Union, and could leave whenever they felt it necessary.

This was purely a war to allow the North to dominate the South economically. It was not only about slavery, although that was a part of it.

Wearing a Confederate hat is NOT RACIST!

According to your account, the southerners were A-Ok with the North winning as long as they didn't run into any non-English speaking soldier.
Because you see, rival soldiers chat over tea before trying to shoot each other.

You need to put yourself in the times. The Supreme Court had already ruled in Dred Scott v. Samford 1857 that slaves were only property and had no rights as citizens or human beings. Not saying it’s right, just saying that’s how it was.

Nope. Saying they felt they were an independent nation and would have viewed anyone fighting for federal government as invaders. They looked at the North with its large immigrant cities with the crime, slums, and Roman Catholic populations as uncivilized as compared to the gentility of the antebellum South.
