You idiot! your post is an oxymoronic statement. In your first stupid paragraph you state: "The war was about slavery"
And in your last idiotic paragraph you state: "The North did not go to war to free the slaves"
So, your saying that you are aware the Confederate BATTLE FLAG has nothing to do with slavery? Are you admitting your a dunce publicly? or an emotional tool to be used?
18 December, 1865 the 13th amendement was signed into law abolishing slavery as legal.
The civil war ended officially on 9 May, 1865.
So, you and your inbred ignorant kind actually think the Civil war was being fought by the North to free slaves from the South, when the North not only owned slaves, but were legal to own them at that time?
The civil war was fought over money and Abe's fear of loosing key Southern port towns and agriculture.
If you went to a real educational institution, they'd taught you these simple lesson and the lessons would have contained the writings held in the National archives proving the reasoning for civil war, not this modern spin that has gained fraudulent traction in last several decades. Better hurry up and get access to those archives because I'm sure they will disappear or at least the Colleges and Universities that have these documents will lose them.
Scumbag is feeling like this
You mean the North had slaves legally and lawfully and they now tell us that civil war was to stop the South's slave racket.
