I was reading a book written by a Confederate Soldier ( In "The Atlantic" magazine ) : He never repented of being a Confederate, which he equated to being an Aristocratic Southerner. He repeats one million times "State Rights", "State Rights", "State Rights"

.
And this Great Soldier or Officer of the South never mentions the color of Human Beings or the existence of Slaves. For him the Slaves never existed and Black People do not exist.

There are no Human Considerations of Oppression and Suffering, only "State Rights" and gallantry in battle, the aristocracy and nobility of the South that defends "State Rights".... because the Southerners are the bravest men in the Whole World.

The Federal Government is despicable for this man of Bravery, Courage, Valor and Gallantry in Battle.

Some Confederates never repented and never begged for a pardon to Blacks or to Northerners.

And there are still many Confederates today saying : "State Rights", "State Rights", "State Rights", ..... "Ad Infinitum".

Like my confederate soldier, no wonder that many people want to reenact the Civil War in their Spare Time.

This would be laughable if it did not cause more suffering.
