I would be very careful about calling anyone ignorant, especially with such a divisive topic.

Agreed.

My ancestor's fought for two different Northern regiments but at the end of the day they were all Americans.

Confederate. The states were protected by the constitution but the central government wanted more power over the states. Originally the states were offered an 'opt out' deal when joining the union, much like today with the United Nation's Agenda 21, but we all know what happens when you try to 'opt out' of centralized control.

Bottom line is there was always going to be a war, for the central government to get as big as it is today it could not do that with states coming and going, it needed to bind them and control them thus removing any threat to it's control.

What are you referring to when you claim there was an 'opt out' program?

I assume what I say...All Northern Americans I met are like that..and I met quiet a few...thats enough for me to form a general opinion..

What an incredibly poor choice to base an opinion on.

Not sure why everyone is always so for the Confeds, I personally like them because I'm a Texan.

Confederacy.

For Dixie!

I'm a Georgia boy, and thus I must do my duty to support the south.
