Sorry, but you gotta do what you gotta do. How many Japanese did we kill in order to end WWII? It has to be done sometimes to end the pain of war.

@dawaffleman1 Ride with the Devil. Criterion has released a long version, with added footage of Quantrill's rade on Lawrence, KS.

Fantastic video for a very fine, often underrated movie. Thank you. As to Lincoln, one of the best thing our government could do to still heal this war's wounds would be to eliminate Lincoln's birthday as a federal holiday. As a northerner, even I can't defend what Lincoln historians today admit he allowed union troups to do in the South. Raping women, lashing them, killing women and children; it's still indefensible. He didn't care about slaves, only the union staying together.

@tomashize missouri,kansas,texas,arkansas were on the outer edges of civilization. oklahoma was indian territory (no state hood). the fed government was pushing to resettle all indians into oklahoma. so theres the motivation to often side with the south. the other states mentioned, are where most brown people flocked to, trying to carve out a life away from the big city racism back east. skin color didnt mean much out on the perimeter where life was rough and unstable. hope this helps. cheers

I'm English and don't know much about your civil war but it seems odd that there were a significant number of non white or native troops(as in black, chinesse or mexican) in the Rebel army? is this true? or propaganda? I do know that lots of us Brits wanted to break up the Union by backing the Confederates, we were worried about a new world power to have to compete with.

LINCOLN WAS A MURDERER BASTARD OF OUR SOUTHERN PEOPLE. HE HATED THE SOUTH. THE MAJORITY OF THE SOUTHERN PEOPLE HAD NO SLAVES. WOMEN AND CHILDREN WERE KILLED BY LINCOLN AND HIS BASTARDS OF HATE, GRANT SHERMAN. THE TRUTH OF WHAT REALLY HAPPENED IS OUT THERE IF YOU WILL LOOK FOR IT. LONG LIVE THE SOUTH, AND ITS TRUE HERITAGE.
