If the Federals had just said "all right, see you later" and left there is no chance the Confederacy would have invaded the north.
Left from where? As the battle of Fort Sumter proves, what specific geographic areas the "Federals" needed to leave isn't always clear. Fort Sumter was within the United States at the time of the battle. The Confederacy was a localized rebellion that was put down just like Shay's or the Whiskey Rebellions. But for some reason you don't kneejerk to declare Washington History's Greatest Monster whenever anyone mentions a quarter, and Ron Paul doesn't go around on national television lying about ways those wars could've been prevented.
Just the Civil War. As this thread proves repeatedly, it doesn't even matter what someone says to start it off, pvn and you and whatever will assume that someone said "LINCOLN WAS A SAINT" and for some reason work real hard to create a moral equivalence between the CSA and the USA.
Again, I'd love for one of the neoconfederates posting ITT to develop a coherent philosophy of law, morality, ethics, whatever that allows a fraction of the white male population of inland South Carolina to acquire a superior claim on Fort Sumter than the current peaceful possessor.
Specifically, how is it that the CSA can claim Fort Sumter and require the soldiers there to leave but the USA can't claim inland South Carolina?
Why can't you let this **** go? You, mjkidd, personally have been embarrassing yourself in this thread for years. Can't you just go "oh wow I didn't know that, maybe I should re-evaluate the credibility of the blogs and **** that taught me these vile racist lies"?
