TX schools will now teach that Civil War was all about slavery!!!

[katzgar]

Sorry, Laval had a land grant and that issue wasn't settled until 1841.

When you deny facts that are presented to you you just look like a stupid f***

[tsuke]

Nobody said it was the ONLY issue, dumbfuck. But every article of secession in the southern states made slavery the primary reason.

Why do you cretins wish to remain so willfully ignorant?

its a reason yes and i agree with you but not the only one.

[katzgar]

its a reason yes and i agree with you but not the only one.

You must think the confederates were too illiterate to compose a complete article of secession.

[Lightbringer]

The secession of the southern states was all about slavery, the war itself was about preservation of the Union.

Ownership and right to build Ft Sumter was settled in 1841..... Look it up, you"knuckledragger".

NPS Historical Handbook: Fort Sumter

In the preceding May, one William Laval, resident of Charleston, had secured from the State a conveniently vague grant to 870 acres of "land" in Charleston Harbor. In November, acting under this grant, Laval notified the representative of the United States Engineers at Fort Johnson of his claim to the site of Fort Sumter.

as usual you are being a moron

[Mott the Hoople]

so lincoln did not want to end slavery but the south started the war for no other reason than for lincoln to not end slavery?

If slavery was the only issue then all the slave states in the north would be in the confederacy

I didn't say that. There were other issues...most of the ones posted in this discussion were not but mythologies created in the late 19th Century. For example States Rights. The other issues involved were essentially extraneous or irrelevent. No Slavery issue, no Civil War. That's a fact. Not an opinion. The vast majority of these so called other issues are Lost Cause Mythologies.

Is that the new proggy thing...lost cause mythologies?

Did the Union go to war over slavery? Make the case.

You do know that Donald Fucking Trump is not a Republican?

No the Union didn't go to war over slavery. The South went to war over slavery.

No. They seceded over slavery.
