American by Birth

Southern by the Grace of God,

and a Rebel by chioce.

Stockpiling since 1865.

We declare that the truth of the war be told now by the Yankee Congress. It should be told on National TV.We will never give up state rights...commies will die. We will resist the NWO and any tyrannical government. We will defend freedom to the end and the meaning of The Constitution and our own State constitutions.Resist the lies spread by congress.

On the day the statue was dedicated Mayor Kent expressed the feelings of the City regarding the memorial

I-may in your name truly declare to the world that we erect and donate it in no spirit of sectional pride or vain glory, but as a merited tribute to those of out sons who took up the sword, inspired by just and patriotic motives in a just and patriotic cause.

I hope you understand that Battle Hymn is a 100% Yankee song

The Maryland 5th Regiment Decorated this Memorial on June 17th, 1875. The men who actually fought the war had some respect for the sacrifices made on both sides. If you do a search on Battle of Bunker Hill Civil War you will be able to see a picture of this as well as other documents from the original dedication. "A House divided cannot stand."

i'm atheist myself but if someone finds any kind of support, strength or any kind of supply in religion, he or she should have the right to just sing about it.

god bless this country.

[strawbary]

slavery's illegal? since when? please tell my boss!

[nor888vast695]

Your laws only count if you can enforce them. The South couldn't enforce squat. It was foolish to think the Southern forces could defeat the northen states with mostly nothing.

[Pegathor0328]

I kinda do know what I'm talking about, Lincoln had no right to declare war, that's congresses job, so the so called Civil war was an illegal war to start with. The south was not obligated to stay in the union, it was put in the constitution that should a government become to powerful, and step on our right, we have the right to leave. I know that History is only a fun thing to talk about, I'm joining the marines to help stop against today's threats

[nor888vast695]

You kinda don't know what your talking about. Lincoln declared war because it was legal against rebels for whatever reason. People in the South really need to get that burr from underneath their saddles. All of these states were obligated to remain in the Republic when the Articles of Confederation DIDN'T work out. As a southerner I can only say that the foolishness is live and well. Come out of your hidey hole and help us stop all threats against the US.

[lordhashi]

yeah and the north had every right to reestablish the union you know most northerners as you call us dont care about the cival war or yankee or rebels most of us moved on unlike you inbred swine

[17schneid]

slavery was illegal in the north, he didn't leave it legal in the north, it was banned from the start

[803honda]

lies after lies

[lordhashi]

your not forced you can leave at any time but we can kick you ass

[803honda]

Abraham Lincoln hated black folks and supported laws that banned them from settling in illinois. If lincolns war was really over slavery he wouldnt have waited 2 years after the beginning to free them and he woulda freed all the slaves but instead he proclaimed slavery banned in the south and the west while leaving it still legal in the north.
