So you know a lot of British people that were around in 1860s? It is a great analogy but since you never hopped off your porch, except to run to and from school, you don't understand how conflicts work. People go to war and bang on the enemy because they see them killing their family and...

I know you already admitted it, but the fact that you never played the block is why you can't seem to understand this. The 9 Treys don't know why the beef wit the G-stones was started. All they know is that the G-stones killed a bunch of their boys and that means they are going to try and kill...

Appreciate that my brother. The feeling is mutual!

Ya that was a good point. I had no idea about that.

Thanks for the insight bro. That makes sense what you are saying and I figured most of these guys were fighting mainly because they were getting invaded. When you got guys like Sherman burning down entire towns and all your friends and family were killed by the northerners. You are going to want...

So it is safe to assume you are a big fan of Abe Lincoln and think he was a great person?

I am not sure if I misread your post, but I believe you are agreeing with what I have said in this thread.

Radios were common during ww2 so people could hear more of about why the war was going on. Even so, I would bet a large portion of German soldiers were not Anti-Semetic. In the 1800s we are talking about broke southerners who probably never left their 1 mile radius their entire lives. They did...

WTF are you talking about. I said nothing about what started the civil war. I said that 75% didn't own slaves. Once the war started people just started joining the confederates because it was a war. Just like people join the war right now regardless of their opinion about oil.

What kind of stupid question is that? There was no internet in those days. They hear the North is coming to kill them and they join up. Only 33% of southerns owned slaves and it is safe to assume less of the wealthy were fighting than the poor. That would mean 75% of soldiers not owning slaves...

Can't say I am surprised about that.

As someone from the north I can't even believe this is a real thing. I just looked it up and this is not an isolated incident. This is a legit holiday in a few southern states like Bama, Georgia, SC, Miss, tx. That said I don't see anything wrong with celebrating their fallen men. I would bet...
