Making Georgia Howl
sounds sexual
Was there widespread rape in the ACW?

Sounds like a 1970s southern rock live album

By that logic, Washington, Jefferson, Franklin and all the rest were traitors as well

>mass murderer

it's war, shit happens. Not to mention you being OK with Sherman

>>1333143
When you save the Cherokee from extermination by relocating them
>>
>>1333147
When I said mass murderer, I meant Pasha. Armenian civvies sure as hell weren't combatants. And the main reason for your rebellion being that you want to own other human beings isn't a just cause in any way, shape, or form. I'm not saying that there weren't good people fighting for the confederacy, there were plenty, but the idea that they were fighting for is wrong on multiple levels.

>>1333139
Being okay with Sherman and Grant but not Lee is silly.
Also, Mosley was dumb.
>>
>>1333139
Lee viewed himself as a citizen of Virgina, not the USA.
>>
>>1333158
>>1333161
Alright, I think my comment on Lee was poorly worded. I respect him, but fighting for the Confederacy isn't a quality I can (personally) respect. I think the nation he fought for was wrong, not him.

They were, though.
