I'm tired of all those Northerners, lIberals, "proGRESSives", and

the "Civil War" they call it when there was nothing civil about it.

The reason was States' Rights, for damn sure.

And what was the Right the states had that the Republicans and the
Feds wanted to take away from Southern states? It was the right to
have slaves, of course.

Hmmm. Maybe they have a point.


In retrospect, freeing the slaves and not returning them to their homeland,
has done us more harm than good.


Give me one example of that other than Ferguson, Detroit, Chicago,
Baltimore, Oakland, Gary, Washington, D.C., New York City... err,
never mind.
