Appomattox Day

[TopHatter]

OH and BTW TopHatter. You know how in the past I may have mentioned how it would be nice if WAB could somehow attract new members?

I've changed my mind.

Yeah so far all we've had is one of Trump's Dick Suckers and now this Lost Causer clown shoe.

Who said slavery was wrong? It is not ideal, but who says it is wrong.

The very vocal abolitionist element in the Northern Free States!
As well as GB and France! Yes they might want Rebel cotton for their mills and factories. But both countries had recently enacted anti-slavery legislation....!
As for not ideal...can you think of anything worse, with the exception of Death???

Although I could put some of the blame on AR. It is not as though Appomattox Day is a National Holiday or one we ordinarily think of. Except, of course, for AR. It was all quiet after he posted for 16 months. I can imagine his surprise if he ever logs in and sees whoa, eight pages...

Oh yes, the abolitionist was vocal. But what made him right in what he said? The insane John Brown represented the abolitioist's. What a mentor! A murderer! A terrorist.! One who created insurrection against the South. One who was later worshipped and deified in the North.

And the North allowed John Brown to roam free in the North and meet with high up politicians, and various anti-slave organizations, and helped support John Browns attack on the South at Harpers Ferry. Was John Brown right, as he was hung for his good deeds?

The 'vocal abolitionist element' were the ones in the wrong. Not the right.

Strange isn't it? The North backed away from hanging John Brown. And the North backed away from hanging Jeff Davis. The North did what was expedient as to how they are perceived by the 'people'. They made sure they postured themselves as the defenders of the flag and freedom, fighting against that evil South. The North had and has to make slavery evil, the South evil, and they the glorious saviours of America.

Well, yes, death is worse. Good point.

Missed this. Yeah, I say it's wrong. And you finally crossed the line. Why don't you head over to Stormfront, I'm sure your delusions will be more than welcome there.

I saw that at the time and and typed a quick one line response saying basically that I was done and asking if a temporary ban wasn't in order. I just forgot to hit submit (it was late).

Anyway no time like the present. Judges?

I was barely even skimming over his last few posts and only noticed it later.

I know you're going to read this. So, just to prove how stupid you are.

Really? Did 1865 remove Article X of the Bill of Rights.

No need. The defence of the Union is a Federal Preorgative. Defence against all enemies, both foreign and domestic.

The South wanted to secede. And did.

And got proven wrong by 1865.

Google "Jeff Davis trial was a test case for the legality of secession".

I don't have to. DAVIS ONLY RETURNED TO THE US AFTER THE PARDONED. He didn't want his trial.
