Anyone needs back a piece of recently stolen history?

Hey Lee, I have already called this battle off. You cant have a battle of wits with someone who is unarmed. They think they have a pretty good understanding of what the war was about, and what our flag ment. Nevermind the fact Ga entered the war mostly for a free economic control over there Industry. Or that the Ga flag was inplace long before the war ever started. Were the racist, stupid farmers. Yet Gen Sherman marched though Ga burning everything in sight, massacring hundreds of young boys and old men, both black and white alike for defending there citys from being burned.
 Gen Shermans march to the sea, is one of the many war crimes committed by the Union Army durring the civil war, that went unchecked. So I will let these two knuckle heads continue to call us rasict, and hicks. We know the truth.  I see that their public education system isnt as fine as the one we have in place down in Georiga. So dont bother with trying to defend your actions with these two. They are one of the many  people we read about who are up for a Dawin Award. ;)

Shows what you know.


Stars and Bars still wave on the GA flag and the actual Battle flag flys next door  to  the SC statehouse, bigger than it was before with spot lights on it. You can also see it near the capital in atlanta also dwarfing the one on the statehouse.
There are 50% more southerners flying the battle flag this year than were 3 years ago. There was a boon of money made selling the battle flag and there was a huge shortage while companies rushed to make more.

Hence my statement , the crusade was counterproductive.

  The Flag is also helpful in exposing liberal hypocrisy. Liberals claim to love diversity, differing cultures, variant customs etc. But liberals are amazingly intolerant toward stupid people who enjoy being stupid and wish to remain stupid. South Carolina's Rebel Flag waving is a beacon of hope for stupid people everywhere. It ought not be taken down capriciously

         Every state claims to be the "most beautiful," have the "hardest working people," et cetera, ad nauseum. Finally, a state that's being honest about its only useful, real distinction. Flying the rebel Flag is an almost polite way of saying, "come to South Carolina, where you don't have to be embarrassed about using the N-word."

Shuckins:  Such an action would have deprived Lincoln of the one issue that he used to galvanize public opinion in the North to support the war effort after the victory at Antietam.

 Sorry, but I have to correct your history.
 Lincoln's proclamation made it impossible for Britain and France to support the South.

 It did not galvanize public opinion in the North - quite the opposite. Tens of thousands of Union soldiers deserted and riots and lynchings broke out in many places when northerners learned they would be fighting for the blacks they despised.

 If galvanizing the public opinion was possible, Lincoln woul have not waited untill after the victory in a major battle. He would have doone it sooner when North was being beaten on the field of battle.

 Lincokln clearly stated many times that thepreservation of theUnion was his goal, not abolition of slavery. He would not have stopped the war - but more british and french help to the south, including recognition could have affected the outcome.

Of course the Northerners were the traitors - they overthrew the voluntary Union of the free states and replaced it with a despotic centrally-run state.

last i checked the south left the union and the constitution. that is treason in my books. but seriously you guys need to get over it. the south lost the war. you dont see people in boston waving british flags around claiming " the brits shall rise again!". I understand you guys fantasize about what "if" the south won and how much greater life in america would be(less darkies) just like alot of people fantasize about what "if" the nazis won, or "if"  the spanish armada won etc.....

From the "Declaration of the Immediate Causes Which Induce and Justify the Secession of South Carolina from the Federal Union

Quote

Those States have assume the right of deciding upon the propriety of our domestic institutions; and 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; they have permitted open establishment among them of societies, whose avowed object is to disturb the peace and to eloign the property of the citizens of other States. They have encouraged and assisted thousands of our slaves to leave their homes; and those who remain, have been incited by emissaries, books and pictures to servile insurrection.  


and later on in the same document,

Quote

A geographical line has been drawn across the Union, and all the States north of that line have united in the election of a man to the high office of President of the United States, whose opinions and purposes are hostile to slavery. He is to be entrusted with the administration of the common Government, because he has declared that that "Government cannot endure permanently half slave, half free," and that the public mind must rest in the belief that slavery is in the course of ultimate extinction.


Looks like some of those million lived in South Carolina in 1860.

If those white men had won WWII, none of us would be safe.  White or no, we'd all be slaves.

People were very worried about the outcome of the Battle of the Bulge.  Many old timers who lived back then felt the US would have lost the war, if we had lost that one battle.

The German infantry soldier with a rifle was considered a very dangerous opponent.  One of my uncles, who passed on a few years ago, was at the Anzio landing.  I never got to talk to him, or even meet him, but my Dad said Uncle Sydney would not talk about it at all.

When I was 16, and worked at a radio/appliance store toting around refrigerators and microwave ovens, my boss was Bill Knapp.  He was a tail gunner in a B-24 and went on the Ploesti oil field raids.  He was shot down twice during his bomber flights.  He showed me a picture of him and his crew, with the B-24.  I sure wish I had that picture today.  He gave me an Amana microwave oven (1973 model) about 20 years ago, and I still use it to this day.

My Dad was in the Signal Corps during WWII.  Before that, he worked as a 2nd mate on a 300 ton freighter out of New Orleans, bound for Argentina to Buenos Aires.  He told me he listened on the radio (during the battle) while the British ships Exeter, Achilles and Ajax came after the Graf Spee...and later saw first hand the upper works of the German pocket battleship after it had been sunk (or scuttled), sticking up from the water near the mouth of the Rio Plata.
