They’l have the next generation think it never happened, ahh, wipe it out of their memory. As long as their is a balance, not emphasised too much like (Rev. Jackson and Al-Shapton) and not ignored totally like this jokers.

Fact: Southern secession from union wasn’t all slave baited it was mostly due to north vs.south equal trade.

Fact: Democrat slave owners at the time denied republicans al the demands that were placed on them and the DNC of today should pay the reparations due for slavery!

Good Lord. Does Tommy Christopher do any research before he writes this stuff:

“That goes for the North, as well. The popular notion that the Union were “the good guys” is relative, at best. Yes, ending slavery was the right thing to do, but it’s not worthy of much back-patting, especially considering that the North waited to do it until they really didn’t need slaves anymore.”

Wrong. Dead wrong.

Slavery never became institutionalized in the north the way it did in the south. There were very strong anti-slavery feelings in the northern states as early as shortly after the Revolution, and maybe sooner.

The virulent anti-slavery feelings led to violence early on, WAY before the Civil War. John Brown or the Kansas/Missouri Compromise ring any bells? How about the Underground Railroad that was helping slaves to escape more than a generation before souther secession?

The north never “needed” slavery and to state that they only wanted to end it after they had some kind of epephany is wrong, and the worst kind of opinion passing as fact.

Note to the uninformed politically correct: The north were “there good guys” and laid down nearly four hundred thousand lives to prove it.

If you have an issue with your own “white guilt” then that’s yours. You own it. You don’t however, own your own facts on this issue.

Sorry, that’s “epiphany”. Type-o.

Just watched it. Hilarious and I love the insertion of quotes from the secession documents. The best comedy is rooted in the truth.

Point of interest. The group sponsoring a couple of those ads was the group Joe “you lie” Wilson belonged to.

The old DNC is now today’s GOP. Remember Nixon’s southern strategy, it works. Those Republicans were from the North, see how the table has turned. So you can’t claim credit to those Republicans, nah you can’t.

Here’s a comment I wrote here back in April:

Nope, not about slavery at all. It was all just state’s rights.

Except the Virginia Ordinance of Secession said that the U.S. government was oppressing “the Southern slaveholding states.”

And the Alabama Ordinance of Secession said that “it is the desire and purpose of the people of Alabama to meet the slaveholding States of the South.”

And the Texas Ordinance of Secession said that the U.S. government had become “a weapon with which to strike down the interests and property of the people of Texas, and her sister slave-holding States.”

And the South Carolina Declaration of Secession said that the free states “have denied the rights of property established in fifteen of the States and recognized by the Constitution; they have denounced as sinful the institution of slavery.”

And the Georgia Declaration of Secession said “For the last ten years we have had numerous and serious causes of complaint against our non-slaveholding confederate States with reference to the subject of African slavery. . .That reason was her fixed purpose to limit, restrain, and finally abolish slavery in the States where it exists. The South with great unanimity declared her purpose to resist the principle of prohibition to the last extremity.”

Oh! And the very first reason given in the Mississippi Declaration of Secession is:
“Our position is thoroughly identified with the institution of slavery – the greatest material interest of the world. Its labor supplies the product, which constitutes by far the largest and most important portions of commerce of the earth. These products are peculiar to the climate verging on the tropical regions, and by an imperious law of nature, none but the black race can bear exposure to the tropical sun. These products have become necessities of the world, and a blow at slavery is a blow at commerce and civilization. That blow has been long aimed at the institution, and was at the point of reaching its consummation. There was no choice left us but submission to the mandates of abolition, or a dissolution of the Union, whose principles had been subverted to work out our ruin.”

Not to mention, of course, the Constitution of the CSA explicitly favors slavery several times, such as:
–in Article I, Section 9, clause 4: “No . . .law denying or impairing the right of property in negro slaves shall be passed.”
–in Article IV, Section 2, clause 1: “The citizens of each State . . .shall have the right of transit and sojourn in any State of this Confederacy, with their slaves and other property; and the right of property in said slaves shall not be thereby impaired.”
–in Article IV, Section 2, clause 4: “No slave or other person held to service or labor in any State or Territory of the Confederate States, under the laws thereof, escaping or lawfully carried into another, shall, in consequence of any law or regulation therein, be discharged from such service or labor; but shall be delivered up on claim of the party to whom such slave belongs;”
–in Article IV, Section 3, clause 3: “In all such territory the institution of negro slavery, as it now exists in the Confederate States, shall be recognized and protected by Congress and by the Territorial government.”

So yep, it was all about state’s rights, and slavery doesn’t enter into it. At all. Nope, not at all.

Seems our resident village idiot has selective amnesia. He/she has full recognition of only parts of the CSA constitution that fits his/her agenda. Why no mention of the following?

Section 9 – Limits on Congress, Bill of Rights

1. The importation of negroes of the African race from any foreign country other than the slaveholding States or Territories of the United States of America, is hereby forbidden; and Congress is required to pass such laws as shall effectually prevent the same.

2. Congress shall also have power to prohibit the introduction of slaves from any State not a member of, or Territory not belonging to, this Confederacy.

These two sections alone were more than what existed in the US Constitution at the time. The CSA enacted laws to end slavery BEFORE the US Constitution did. For those who actually followed history it is known that not only did Northern states benefit from slavery, slavery actually existed in the US AFTER the end of the civil war. Delaware was the last state in the US to abolish slavery and that was AFTER the war. Very few in the North were for abolishing slavery. Many saw it as needed for them to maintain their life styles since many owned house slaves. The Northern majority passed laws and tariffs that made it impossible for Southern states to abolish slavery even if they wanted to. Southern cotton and tobacco farmers would easily garner higher prices for their good if allowed to sell to Europe. Likewise they could purchase goods needed for their farms at lower rates if not for laws that added high tariffs to imports from Europe and other laws that made trading with Europe unprofitable and sometimes illegal. Southern farmers were forced to sell at lower prices to Northern companies while at the same time forced to pay higher prices for good due to tariffs and having to buy from Northern companies.

Funny didn’t we hear about something similar almost 100 years earlier? Yes we did. The same group of Northern states that introduced these type laws and restrictions are the same one who lead the revolution against England due to similar type laws and restrictions. Makes you wonder just what would history book be saying today about the 13 colonies if they in fact had of lost the war. I am certain it would be in line with what has been falsely reported about the south when ti comes to the Southern States war for independence.

BTW i wonder why our resident village idiot has said nothing about the NY draft riots?

Let’s also not forget that the first official slave in the US was “owned” by a black man. It is also true that during the US war for independence US slaves were offered freedom if they were to leave their masters and fight for the crown. So using village idiots logic the US war for Independence was fought over slavery.

If you’re addressing me (which I surmise by your hamfisted swipe at my username — truly the height of wit): You’re asking why I didn’t argue something that wasn’t germane to my argument? Can’t help you there, pal.

Another interesting fact is that only 4.8% of white southerners owned slaves. However almost 28% of free Negroes owned slaves themselves.
