They are reeling in Mississippi and the pardon no one can forgive is David Gatlin.
Gatlin shot his wife dead with their son in her arms and walked out of jail a free man last week, the beneficiary of one of about 200 pardons or early releases granted by former Gov. Haley Barbour during his last days in office.
Gatlin was freed before the courts could step in and halt the release, and tonight no one knows where he is.
Gov. Barbour is a heartless, mindless man. He should have never been granted the opportunity to be in any public eye. He is a terrible representation of life!!! People like him are selfish, ignorant indivduals that feel they are superior to everyone!! Go stick a cucumber up yours barbour...ur not a big deal, just a big screw up!!!
@annamariestacie The only reason why a fatass redneck Republicans win in Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana, and Georgia is because people vote along racial lines. Blacks vote Democrat. Whites vote Republicans. Since Mississippi is 64% white, it will always vote Republican from now on.
I'm not a southern amreican. Just a guy who likes history. Slavery was definitely a part of the war. But not the sole cause of the war. Thousands of poor white's did not go to fight and die for the rich plantation owners.They did it because they saw a massive army invade there homeland. If you actually speak to confederates today most deeply oppose slavery, and just want an independent southern homeland. Thats it.
Yes and no. Most southerners did not own slaves. But they did get sucked into believing slavery was an acceptable economic system and the war was started by the South both shooting-wise and by trying to leave the union when Lincoln made it clear there would be no *new* slave states.
Most existing slave states rebelled because they couldn't take the idea of slavery not being expanded to new territory.
Slaveholding powerbrokers in slave states pulled their states into the war.
How could the Confederate States of America, confederated in an official policy of race-slavery, not be the awful precursor to the terrible Nazi-German racist state of internal and external aggression?
How cool would it be if this ass clown ran with Palin .... that would make for great TV.... they'd get beat like a red headed step child but WOW would that shit be funny.
I could see the rest of the world looking at the US thinking we've completely gone crazy..... Fried Chicken and Moose Balls for everyone! LOL
Why the fuck would Southerners want to remember a war that was fought on behalf of evil scumbag slavers? I mean how stupid collectively does a group have to be to not figure out they were hoodwinked into fighting a bad war over a century later.
All of you people are mean! Haley Barbour is really nice, i would know i've met him! I am from Mississippi! I don't believe in slavery but i LOVE Mississippi! I don't really understand politics but who cares! I know enough to know how good of a governer Haley Barbour is! Why don't all u loud mouth ppl come and try to be governer! its not as easy at it seams( and it does'nt even seem that easy!!!!)
And finally, the Confederacy seceded due to the shrinking amount of power the States held and the growing amount of power the Federal Government held. States Right's was the reason for the War. In fact, during the Civil War, there were NORTHERN STATES that were slave holding states. So really, the Union States had slaves longer than the Confederacy.
the american civil war was not fought because of slavery solely!!! that was only one of the many issues it was fought over!! president lincoln was not for or against slavery, all he was trying to do was to preserve the union!! he said himself in a letter to horace greeley, ".....If I could save the Union without freeing any slave I would do it, and if I could save it by freeing all the slaves I would do it; and if I could save it by freeing some and leaving others alone I would also do that."
No, whats stupoid is blacks bringing up slavery. Its 200 years ago! Drop it! Nobody today was a slave, so it is just a sickly politically correct tactic. Haley is right, it dont amount to diddley.
@calimar28 First off, you math and dates are way off. Second, slavery did amount to something, they fought a war over it and put it in the constitution that it was illegal.
I am from MS. Most whites (not all) in MS are racist. They are proud of it. They believe that they are doing Jesus a favor by hating blacks and Jews. I had white friends who did all kinds of drugs and I did nothing. Yet, I couldn't even go in their homes.
MS is laced with racism. No doubt about it.
And, I know nothing about a Confederate Memorial Day in MS. And, I am sure that 99% of the people in MS know nothing about a Confederate Memorial Day. So he can take that BS somewhere else.
@calimar28 What good reasons did they have for killing the native americans? what good reasons did they have for enslaving blacks? What good reasons did they have for instituting segregationist policies?
What reasons do most of them have for hating Jewish people?
If you can answer me that, then I may listen to you? Again, I said GOOD reason. B/c we can always find "A" reason to hate anyone.
Haley Barbour is a racist. I am from MS, and I know him. He will never be president. That I am sure of
I agree with the governor - it's not a big deal. People are just trying to find another reason to call the South racist. Yankees tell us to let the Civil War go -- no -- YOU let it go!
@theskiesbelowme We won, we let it go a long ass time ago. The only time you hear Yankees talk about the Civil War is in A. a history class or B. when some dumbass southerner boasts about how great the Confederacy was. And is WAS a big deal. 2% of the American population died because of that war, so yeah slavery was a big deal.
@UnrepentantSinner Of course the war itself was a big deal. Confederate Memorial Day is not. There is nothing wrong with a memorial day to remember history. The South has been defeated twice. At least the first time we got to keep our dignity, now we can't even honor our brave ancestors.
Also, most know that the way the U.S. government is set up, the states have very little power and depend on the Federal Government for appropriations for schools, highways, and various other projects, so it's not like any state is going to rise up and go against the Federal Government. This is saber waving and really has no consequence, other than creating a great news story to get people to watch more circus that is cable news and buy more papers.
This is dumb. Any one with half a brain knows that the old South didn't succeed primarily because of Slavery. It was because the North had influence over much of the Federal government and Federal policies that the South deemed harmful. Also, many taxes were used primarily in the North. I say let the old South reminisce of the time they said "no more" to the North and shed blood on that principle, much like the colonies did for independence! This is an issue because the President is a Mulatto!
what people are "conveniently" forgetting is that the war was not all about the issue of slavery. people need to stop acting like this offends them. our president is african-american...obviously those days are over with. and it last for one month...jesus.
LOL that dumb bitch is your typical dumbass liberal. she just kept trying her hardest to try and paint him as some kind of "bad guy". lol it was blatantly obvious what her intentions were especially after he threw it back in her dumbass face. LOL that was classic.
Please. Jews run America and are the reason that America is great. The states with the most Jews have the most money. Put me with the Jews any day. And, give us southern Florida. You all can keep the panhandle. I need my MIAMI!!!
That's fucked up. Why on earth would you honor the confederacy? It would be like present day Germany honoring the Nazis. Sure, it's part of their herritage, but not if they think it's something they should be proud of, that's majorly fucked up.
@cobrompton, the rationalization is that no one black or white alive today had slaves or was one.
If they want to honor the Confederacy so what? You want to stop something that is currently hurting our society then fight to get rid of Rap music and gangsta glorification.
Im from MS (and Im white). Its Remarks like this from a STUPID redneck Gov that makes the rest of us look bad. MS is not all bad but yes there is a stigma. I could care less for this guy. Hes pure evil and racist.
Good for you to post your feelings here but if you REALLY believe that, you need to get active and work @ election time to bounce fukwits like this outta office
@ImarketingJunkie no he isnt im fellow mississipian. read up on the terrif of 1838. 20 years worth of our farmers getting the shaft im from south miss that s all there is here. farms. our familys were hungry. make an attemp too understand.
Thats a racist SOB if I ever heard one, he should have just worn his white robe and matching hood, the republican party just cant stop shitting on minorities, they just cant help themselves those racist fucks.
Leaving slavery out of a commemoration of the Confederacy is like leaving the Holocaust out of a remembrance for Nazi soldiers. Slavery WAS the main reason for the war, not only because of the crime of slavery in the South, but because because new states in the west wanted to allow slavery as well.
OMG! I'm going to support an ancestor who fought for the Confederacy just as much as an ancestor who fought for the USA in WWII! The cause of the Civil War was much more complex than just the issue of slavery. I'm proud to be an American, but I still want to remember those who fought on both sides in the Civil War.
It's worth pointing out that Haley Barbour is the governor of Mississippi -- Mississipi, the single most racist state in the nation. Mississippi voted by overwhelming margins for the white supremacist candidates Strom Thurmond in 1948, and George Wallace in 1968.
Just to remind everyone, a small number of African Americans fought for the Confederacy during the latter parts of the Civil War and in exchange they were going to be granted freedom. The U.S. doesn't get blasted by people as being racist, even though the U.S. was a slave holding nation during the War for Independence, the War of 1812, and the Mexican-American War.
And during the War of 1812 and the War for Independence, African Americans fought for the U.S. even though it was a slave holding nation, just as some did for the Confederacy towards the end of the Civil War. The Confederacy didn't murder 12 million people and commit Genocide, so comparing it to Nazi Germany is ridiculous.
And finally, the Confederacy seceded due to the shrinking amount of power the States held and the growing amount of power the Federal Government held. States Right's was the reason for the War. In fact, during the Civil War, there were NORTHERN STATES that were slave holding states. So really, the Union States had slaves longer than the Confederacy.
No it didn't . It seceded due to the inability of the South to control US politics, and dictate to the rest of the nation, in regards to the slavery issue...A few years before the outbreak of a broader Civil War, the South used the power of the Federal government to try & force the citizens of Kansas to accept a slave constitution.
When that failed, they fought a border war Kansas for the purpose of settling the matter with armed conflict.
The US Sec. of War at the time of "Bleeding Kansas", was a Southerner who believed that the west was SUBJECT to the Federal government, as dictated by the states, and not entitled to decide the slavery issue for themselves. His name...Jefferson Davis.
LOL...Look up the US Census records from 1860. They break down slave/free populations by state & territory...maybe a handful, NONE in the North. The South had 4 MILLION. Almost half its population.
