  • No you are the jackass and States' Rights inst a cover for anything of the sort!

    Does it make you feel proud to go out of your way to criticize people who honor the dead just because you have no self esteem or human compassion in your heart?

    These men in the video were Union soldiers and my ancestor a Confederate soldier, but I would honor their memories because they choose to volunteer and fight. Any veteran deserves respect!

  • i had ancestors on both sides one of them might have shot stonewall jackson because he was in the regiment jackson was visiting when he was killed i don't know anything about my union ancestor though. I agree with you all veteran deserve respect no matter what their faults because there are people out there that love them for what they have done

  • The American civil war was only 150 years ago,America is a young country ,lest we forget.

  • @jeffhegarty "Roslin Castle" is the name of the tune and it was used as a funeral march as early as the 17th century in Scotland England and later US. The official duty called for a dirge to be played marching into the cemetery and a quick march to be played on the way out. As I recall we marched out to "Merry Men Home from the Grave" ca 1861.
