* The war was over 156 years ago. Your side lost.

* Robert E Lee was not a nice man. He had slaves that tried to "run away" from his plantation
horse whipped and then had those wounds washed with salt water a few days later.

* The C.S.A. was about the violent end of the United States and the keeping of human beings
as slaves.

* If the Biblical Jesus was alive in the south prior to the Civil War "they" would have tried to make him a slave.
