  • @Seedofwinter I am not from the South nor Britain, I just point out the facts and truth. I am all "American", I have served in the US.Army since I was 17 years old and my thirty years will be up in less then two years. I fought for this country in all wars during that time period. My family and ancestors have fought in every war on this soil and all foreign wars. From the King James War to present day Afghanistan.

    Enjoy the Christmas holidays and New Years!

  • where is the part where he killed all them vampires

  • 7,41 sec - illuminati ?

  • @thestorycanresume1 You go believe you're professor, remember my screen name and never bother me again.

  • @thestorycanresume1 I didn't see on that book list, "The real truth about the Civil War." Why, because less then twenty-five people know the real truth and he is not one of them. I research/write books on subject no humans have ever done. I have been working on that book alone for twenty-two years (About as long you have been born).

  • @rebel2276 about you commenting on my professor. You don't know him personally and probably you never will, is there a need to belittle him? I don't feel the urge to brag about my college but I can guarantee it is no amateur. My prof. wrote several books: "Black Soldiers in the Civil War", "General Lee's Army: From Victory to Defeat", "The Civil War in the West", "Partners in Command: Relationships Between Civil War Leaders", just to name a few. Google them, maybe it will interest you? idk.

  • @rebel2276 I am not American, only an international student who is midly interested in American history. I am not into conspiracy things and I can say I am not passionate about Civil War subject as you obviously are (see you channel), so I think I am content with what my prof provided me and what is beside the course: published books/ press. I think we should stop our arguments here since we flooded this page enough already.

  • @rebel2276 Seeing how you listed all the first generation of presidents who owned slavery, it confirmed further my argument. They never felt it was wrong at FIRST to own slavery and that blacks were of equal status because such institution was embedded profoundly in the life of people in that era, they failed to question the morality of slavery. That didnt mean things could not be evolved though.

  • @rebel2276 I could not confidently say that if the North has had cotton plantation, it would be able to vehemently oppose slavery in the same manner it did. About you mentioning G.W and all the high profile Northerners owning slaves. Yes, it happened but I believe it stopped at certain point (after the Northwest Ordinance of 1787 that banned slavery) or only ran low at an underground level in Washington D.C. The mainstream Northerners still very much opposed slavery.

  • and mind you, if you remember way back to the colonial period, the Northern states/ New World region were created out of religious reform reason, so I don't think it's a strecth to say they were more traditional/ conservatives there and hence felt more obliged to eradicate slavery. So we had the Second Great Awakening- evangelical revivals from all the Northern Quakers/ Whigs/ abolitionists.
