April is Confederate History Month

[Appaholic]

Really....Andersonville is the best you could do? No wonder you lost...



Sounds like Johnny Reb got what he wanted....



What it was was WAR. A war started when you fired on Fort Sumter. A war celebrated in the streets of the Confederacy when announced. And it was more than they could handle. Be careful what you wish for or you may get it...

But you don't deny the Confederate soldiers were weak little pussyboys who lacked the intestinal fortitude to adapt, improvise & overcome their adversity....reminds me of the schoolyard bully who keeps picking for a fight, gets it, gets ass handed to him on a platter, then complains because he had 'his good shirt (or, more accurately, his good blouse) on and didn't want to mess it up'....what fokking cowards...

The war started with the invasion of the sacred soil of the Confederacy and did not end until the CSS Shenandoah surrendered on 6 November 1865. Fort Sumter was simply the expelling of a foreign power from a fort that commanded the channel to a SOVEREIGN NATION'S PRINCIPAL HARBOR.

I came across this story in one of the yankee officers memoirs but I forget which. During a flag of truce this yankee went into our lines upon some errand and commented to the Confederate Major who escorted him to headquarters something to the effect of "you rebels are dressed like ragamuffins and are in rags. our men are SPLENDIDLY attired." The Confederate Major replied "Sir Southern Men generally have only two sets of clothing and it doesn't behoove a gentleman to wear his best suit to butcher hogs". I always liked that one!

The war began and, for all intents and purposes, ended when the Rebs decided to attack Fort Sumter, a fort created and maintained by the United States of America. The Yanks were just resting but, once resolved to the task, hastily laid to waste the murdering ungrateful traitors. The best friend the South ever had was Lincoln considering the mood of the Union populace post war. There's a reason the South never tried to bow up to the North again...it's spirit has been broken and now the Yankees move South en masse to dominate the Southern landscape....but at least you still have those open sewer pits known as the Ashley & Cooper rivers...

To say that our men who died at Franklin, Tennessee and Nashville "didn't die like men" is not criticism it is SLANDER and if spoken in my presence, or any true Southron, would cause you to part with several of your teeth....

I'm sure he's quaking in his boots....when's the last time the South won anything save 2012 DNC convention.... ...now run along little brother and go play with your soldier dolls...

Of course you like that one - it refers to Union soldiers as "hogs" who should be "butchered". See, you like to think you're just about hyperbole and joking around, but then at every turn you seek to deny honor to those whom you say you do pay honor to. If we're to be judged by our actions and our words, then I think we all have a pretty good survey of you.

Jon you make me laugh......and want to duel with you. IF ONLY you were my social equal I could rid my South of such a scalawag.

Actually, that act of violence was committed in the USA....it would have been the CSA if they had any intestinal fortitude, but since Lee quit at Appomatox, the actual violence portrayed above was committed in the USA technically. FWIW though, it took yankee FBI troops to come in and apply the once-per-century ass whopping on Suthren's for this to quit....wonder what the over/under is on Yankees descending upon Charleston and showing those Belles real men this century?

Dude. Seriously. Laugh every once in a while...... you'll live longer. You don't want to join in that interracial and interservice anal olympics in hades before your time!

"Duel"...that's a nice euphemism, but I'll have to pass....maybe Travis can come down and help you with that "problem"...

It was probably in Indiana or Ohio too.

gannonjocksniffer I am still waiting, with bated breath Sir, for your sure to be eloquent defense of the facts surrounding the deliberate murder of Confederate Soldiers, Sailors, and Marines at the hands of their captors during our late War.

I had heard of Burning Man, but hadn't seen pictures of it. It really does look like a good time.

Uh, I know you may have missed it while you were busy jerking yourself off to the image of Gen Hood's stub of a leg ramming you up the arse or while you were busy salivating over the idea of keeping a Black man in chains and whipping him, but I'm pretty sure I never "defended" Northern prisons - on the contrary, I condemned them as atrocities just like I condemned the Southern ones where Union soldiers were deliberately murdered.

...POW camps on both sides of the war were awful and thousands of prisoners died.... All were scenes of great atrocities and all were stains on both sides of the war.

See, unlike you, I can take an objective look at the whole subject and not blindly miss half of the equation. Strange how you don't mention the South's refusal to exchange Black soldiers or their white commanders as part of the prisoner exchange programs. How many of these poor soldiers who died in awful conditions like at Camp Douglas or Point Lookout or Belle Island or Andersonville didn't have to die in such overcrowded and undersupplied prisons if only the South would've been able to get past its obsession with fighting to keep slavery? Shame on the South.

We deliberately murdered no one. This man knew what happened and he was a prisoner AT ANDERSONVILLE!

"You rulers who make the charge that the Rebels intentionally killed off our men, when I can HONESTLY SWEAR THAT THEY WERE DOING EVERYTHING IN THEIR POWER TO SUSTAIN US, do not lay this flattering unction to your souls. You abandoned your brave men in the hour of their cruelest need. They fought for the union and you reached no hand out to save the old faithful, loyal, and devoted servants of the country. You may attempt to shift the blame from your own shoulders, but posterity will saddle the responsibility where it justly belongs"

No Sir gannonfelcher the us authorities do NOT get off that easily. There is NO EXCUSE for the conditions of those camps in the north. There is no excuse for the contents of the Lane Resolution. It was murder. It was just like the Doctor at Elmira said "I killed more Rebs than ANY Genl at the front".

btw.... we offered to exchange USCT. We offered to ship the sick yankee POW's home with NO EXCHANGE if the federal authorities would provide transportation. we offered for the yankees to send their own medicine and Doctors to the camps to provide care for their people. The exchange of prisoners was halted because when our men were exchanged, as they were fighting for their freedom, liberty, and our country's independence, they went back in the field. When your men were exchanged they went back to their homes.

Guerrilla warfare is a bitch and the War had been going on out there since the 1850's but yes I CONDEMN William Quantrill's sack of Lawrence. It was despicable.

Those jayhawking bastards had been doing the same to Missouri for years. Everyone who was killed in Lawrence deserved it. I'm sorry only that some survived the raid.
