Search Results: the one fight

I'm very passionate about the Civil war history, and i admire greatly, the resolve of Confederate soldiers who held on to the bitter end, while outnumber 4 to 1, surrounded, and blockaded.

I also acknowledge that the war was far more complex than simply one side wanting slavery, and the other doesn't want it. Nonetheless, I've been accused of supporting the Nazi regime, for my admiration of the Confederates who fought and died to defend their families.

I take great offense to this, as the Nazi regime murdered tens of millions of innocent people, exterminated countless bloodlines of people. They put entire families into a sealed off building, before putting zyklon B crystals into the room, and murdering everyone in the building, before throwing them out like garbage, and creamating their bodies to destroy evidence.

The fact that anyone would equate that to the Confederacy is a giant farce and insult to me. I was born in Connecticut, and I moved to Texas, later in life. I don't support slavery at all, I view it to be the most horrible institution in American history, but the civil war was about more than that. The north had 4 slave states, Delaware, Missouri, Kentucky, and Maryland.

And the emancipation proclamation didn't free any slaves, it was just a dishonest PR stunt from Lincoln. Lincoln was always against slavery, but, you know what? Actions speak louder than words, and he didn't do a damned thing about slavery. It wasn't until after he was murdered, that the 13 amendment was passed, ending slavery.

As for the Confederacy, I admire the stone cold resolve of the brave men who fought 4 men by himself, and fought until the bitter end for 4 whole years. But comparing them to the N@zis offends me greatly, and is very shortsighted. The only thing they have in common, is that they are both reviled by American history. One deserves to be reviled (N@zis) and the other doesn't, so why the hell else would anyone equate them two?
