I think I can confidently say the “Civil War” started over taxation without representation.

@DrRamer2 I'd have to disagree....but I'll save it for video...I disagree with the fight being over taxes and the fort sumter...but thank you for the first comment. Though I will say you are more level headed then some jerks that comment on my videos.

@painxtreme Last thing, on the point of weapons and tactics. Throughout history The weaponry has almost always been more advanced than the tactics of the time, which truly ratchets up casualties.

@painxtreme Wow, yes you do need to message me, just repeating Bleeding Kansas over and over without fleshing anything out isn't informative. You sound like someone in the living room telling stories, rather than being educational. You drift off topic, talking about weapons books, and lose your place, yadda, yadda. Its not a discussion of bleeding Kansas, when you get to it, you merely recommend books about it. Understand this is critique, not a jab, but it needs lots of polish.

@painxtreme I also have his Colt Navy and Cavalry Sabre, The tip of the sabre is broken off, and there are 6 notches in the Colt barrel. Museums want them all the time, but it is not leaving its secure location.It is Family history, and Kansas history. We display them on occasions, I'm not for keeping them from public view, but they will remain in the Family. It may be a difficult subject to track down, Message me, if you'd like literature on it, or further information that I have.

I happen to be the great-great grandson of Robert Hall Pearson, who along with John Brown and his sons, and a few others met Col. Henry? Pates squad, 15 miles south of Lawrence, KS in The Battle of Blackjack, on June 2, 1856. It could be argued that it was the first Battle of the Civil War. I used to live near Signal Oak, which was a large tree on a tall hill near Baldwin, KS, which was used to hang lanterns on to warn Lawrence of the coming of Quantrill and his raiders. tad of Bleeding Kansas.
