    Isn't it telling how non-white racists on this forum are never confronted by the left on their racism? It's almost like the only kind of racism the left has a problem with is racism practiced by whites.

    Are you only upset about the white slave owners? Or are you upset over all slave owners, blacks included?

    It's a simple question.

    Why yes, you are correct. The northern aggressors did exceed their authority and unconstitutionally committed a great number of atrocities against primarily poor southerners.

    So... Do you think it was a good thing? Our nations bloodiest war? Do the ends justify the means in your opinion? Or do you agree with most historians that slavery was on its way out organically?

    ZOMG, this collective mind think is what is killing you. You believe that only if there were enough blacks to vote could they ever have power. Like all blacks and all whites vote or think the same way. What if the black slave owner thought along side with his white counter parts? If he voted and everything he voted for was what passed, doesn't that mean he had "power"? Or does it only count as "real power" when the race that is voting for something is the majority? If that's the case, then why do blacks vote at all in federal or most state and city elections since there are but only a handful of cities that blacks have a majority vote in? Your power to vote obviously is not really your own power since the majority of the country isn't black. Hell, with your logic, only whites should vote cause they are the majority and they have "real power" right? Man, how the left has brainwashed you.

    I think the Federal government should have declared eminent domain and bought every slave from their owners at market prices, then freed them.

    It would have been cheaper than the war.

    As for the war itself, I 100% support the USA defending its Soveriegn territory against the attacks by the CSA.

    Not that you have a problem with racism, but it appears that you are ignorant of the fact that mercenaries and slaves fought for the British against the United States in the War of 1812.

    I am sure some weirdos can find racism in it somewhere because it consumes their lives.

    If I have to explain what the flag represents to you at your age, then its meaning will not find you... As you are wrapped too deeply in its liberty to be reached. You are isolated and entitled by it, obsessed with a stain on it to see it as a whole. You should thank an armed services member for your blind entitlement. I know you dont understand why, but you really should.

    Agreed.

    Well, technically the CSA never attacked the north. Even after the first few battles where the south won and defended what they claimed as theirs, they didn't step over the line to attack the north. The CSA was ready in the beginning and if they had moved north from the start, they would have beaten the north in less than a year.

    The democrat party is responsible for slavery, the hindring of civil rights legislation, the founding of the KKK, the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. , and the founding of a genocide project called the Negro Project (Planned Parenthood).
    Hillary Clinton publicly embraced a KKK recruiter named Robert Byrd and eulogized him while her husband Bill Clinton hung out with George Wallace and said to Ted Kennedy " a couple of years ago he'd be serving us coffee."

    And you have the unmitigated gall to call Donald Trump a racist after supporting those people?
    Sounds like a bad case of Stockholm Syndrome to me.
