    Not really all ... some were not but put their duty for their state higher as that of the Union.

    Anyway ... the complete issue has changed for 180° since then, making the democrats as the evil for the Ku-Klux-Klan today because too lefty, liberal and socialist ... and so loving the Republicans as being the allegated counter part!

    They were right to destroy the Nazi statues in Germany after WW2.

    same goes for the Confederate statues.

    Actually what the cultural-marxist are planning to do is put a black criminal on the twenty dollar bill.

    That's the best the radical left can come up with, a freaking gun toting criminal ?

    What's your beef with Robert E Lee ?

    Lee was President Lincoln's choice to command the Army of the Potomac.

    Lee was a real American war hero !
    Ever read about the exploits of Robert E Lee during the Mexican-American War ?

    Lee also hunted down Comanches in Texas.

    But the Texas Rangers seemed to have been better at hunting down and killing Comanches and Mexicans.

    Robert E Lee being an engineer built a whole crap of stuff especially forts along the Atlantic seaboard.

    Robert E Lee's nephew, Fitzhugh Lee was also an American war hero.
    Fitzhugh was a war hero and killed a lot of Comanches.
    Fitzhugh Lee was also a Confederate war hero.
    Fitzgerald Lee was also a Brig. General in the U.S. Army during the Spanish-American War.

    I love hearing Dixie in the morning.



    America can't win wars without those southern boys.

    Conservatives praise Republican Lincoln for freeing the slaves and defeating the CSA, and yet they call Harriet Tubman a "black criminal"???

    hmmmm...

    What to many especially those on the left who were indoctrinated in cultural-marxist revisionist history fail to recognize, America was a completely different country during the 19th Century and before 1865 Americans held their loyalty to the sovereign state they lived in, not to the federal government in Washington DC.

    Those who judge history to today's standards are just not low information and misinformed but will repeat the mistakes of the past.

    Tubman is a strange choice to put on government-issued money. In her lifetime she was, in the State’s eyes, a criminal. The government, in fact, wanted to see her killed. She was considered a nuisance and dangerous to “law and order.”
    [​IMG]
    Government officials endorsed a $40,000 bounty (over a million bucks in today’s cash) for her capture — dead or alive.

    so you consider black people who tried to free slaves, to be "criminals"?

    gotcha.

    funny, I thought you guys were proud that Lincoln was a Republican.

    now I see maybe you guys think he was evil for freeing the slaves?

    “As the abolitionists saw it,” Damon Root writes, “they weren’t stealing anybody’s property because nobody had a right to own human property in the first place. Tubman was thus fully justified in liberating herself and others from the tyrannical regime that violated their natural right to self-ownership, a right which John Locke famously called man’s ‘property in his own person.’”

    they were all southern conservatives, which now belong to the republican party... all you have to do is look at who is getting upset about removing the confederate statues and flags

    yes and the people that helped Jews escape Hitler I guess technically would be criminals too - but I still 100% support their actions

    scary, truly scary how some Republican Conservatives see Harriet Tubman as a "black criminal" cause she helped free slaves.

    I guess they prefer she had just been a good ****** and let the white man own, rape, torture and exploit them.

    I suppose so.

    Aiding and abetting.

    A Harriet Tubman twenty dollar bill would just not politicize our currency but would be America's first affirmative action money.

    A very ugly hero.

    But how will liberals and progressives feel about Tubman when they learn that Tubman was a gun nut ?

    so you think Poles, Russians, Ukrainians, Germans and others who helped the Jews during WW2 were also criminals?

    funny how that works

    now you attack her appearance?

    first she's a "black criminal" for helping to free slaves, and now she's an "ugly hero".

    wow.

    now just tell us, do you think it was wrong for Abolitionists to free slaves?

    do you think the slaves should have just been good property for the white man and done their work like good little slaves?

    I'm kinda confused about the abolitionist movement in America leading up to the Civil War.

    Who financed the abolitionist in America ?

    The money trail seems to goes back to London England.

    The same people who were advocating the South to secede from the Union.

    British cotton merchants.
