    They were threatening and reinforcing and moving guns to Ft. Sumter which South Carolina and the Confederacy considered a breach of faith and a military impediment from a foreign government and then of course the Union blockaded the entire Confederate coast.

    They blockaded the coast AFTER the Confederacy invaded sovereign US territory.

    Is the US government not allowed to defend its military bases?

    it's a common misconception that northern states opposed slavery before the civil war.

    Nope. Southern states committed treason, and were put in their place.

    no misconception, the southern confederates wanted slavery to remain legal, the north did not - the Confederate lost, that is how they should be remembered, not put on pedestals in the center of town as heroes

    New York practically fled to North Carolina and it's still a red state.

    When you can't argue facts, go for the insult. Aren't group insults a violation of the forum's rules?

    RWers around here violate the rules all the time. I don't see you pointing them out.

    You should walk a mile in the shoes of a white, heterosexual, Southern, Christian, taxpaying, capitalist, Consitution-loving male.

    That group isn't highly valued.

    Walk a few feet in the shoes of an immigrant before you speak. Southern white men, some of them anyways, whine too much.

    My great-grandparents were immigrants from Norway, Sweden, Finland, England, Germany, and the Netherlands. I knew one of them, from Sweden. All arrived at Ellis Island and lived in NYC.

    They survived very well.

    A Scandinavian economist once stated to Milton Friedman: "In Scandinavia we have no poverty." Milton Friedman replied, "That's interesting because in America, among Scandinavians, we have no poverty either."

    That's racist today.

    Why do you feel the need to put "Bwahahahahahaha" in your post? It's redundant. Thanks for the laugh is sufficient.
