  • @xtremejohnny69 Fort Sumter Death Toll: 1 horse, no humans. Death Toll From Lincolns Response to Fort Sumter: 670,000 humans (including 50,000 Southern civilians); thousands of horses. This certainly seems like a measured, prudent, statesmanlike response by Lincoln (sarcasm off). The South seceded peacefully from the North and then became a separate country, as is their right. Lincoln then sent a fleet to reinforce Fort Sumter, which amounted to a declaration of war by Lincoln so they fired

  • @megagagnon1 Oh, c'mon! Do you think it (the American civil war, and the deaths of over 600,000 soldiers, combined) was necessary in "preserving" the union? Or was it more so Lincoln's decision, as Commander-in-Chief, to have set off such a bloodletting, all for the preservation-and consolidation-of Federal power over the states? Slavery had withered on the vine, the world over, and it would have been no different for the U.S. Read the history, without being so sycophantic!

  • I wish you would cite your sources. It would help.

  • @mrearlygold - you're an idiot, lincoln bears no resemblance to stalin

    jack hunter is just as big a nut case as ron paul is

  • ulillillia goes politics

  • @MachTwo1

    If you like stalin you'll love lincoln

  • And here I thought Sherman's quote dealt with the plantation & slave owning class, as well as the military elite, that directed and duped poor whites into fighting their rebellion for them. It wasn't about 'genocide'...it was about eliminating, as a CLASS, those people who were the direct root of the problem that allowed a Lincoln to flourish.

  • @xtremejohnny69 You're welcome. If you want to read more on Fort Sumter, check out the free book Reassessing the Presidency. See chapter 8 called Lincoln and the First Shot: A Study of Deceit and Deception: mises (.) org/resources/3358

  • This lovely little essay must drive the Lincoln idolaters into fits of rage. It's a great antidote for those blinded and rendered obtuse by civil religion. Lincoln worship is State worship.

  • @ErikLiberty Gotcha. I never liked Lincoln after the shit I found out about him, but I always thought the attack of Ft. Sumter was justification for war. Thanks for the info.

  • @RightWinger1776 As prominent "Paulestinian" Tom Woods has written to Tom DiLorenzo: "Tom, the whole 'pro-Confederate' thing is just laughable. They obviously know we're not 'pro-Confederate' in any sense -- what is there to support in a government that (like the U.S. government at the time) condoned slavery, imposed a fiat currency, and engaged in military conscription?"
