what the civil war was really about. There are some websites that explain it, whether it is factually true or not, I don't know. I know this though, there was nothing civil about it. Nothing civil about any wars.

That article at cracked.com #5 The North was anti racist. ...Sheeittt, you want to bet? North is more racist than the South. There were 11 black people hanged in Manhattan. Town Line, New York successfuly seceded alltogether from the Union and was not readmitted to the nation untill 1946.

Slavery was on the way out in the rest of the world, but the
Confederacy was intended to protect slavery within it's borders. Here's
a couple of quotes;

United States Constitution:

No Bill of Attainder or ex post facto Law shall be passed.

Confederate Constitution:

No bill of attainder, ex post facto law, or law denying or impairing
the right of property in negro slaves shall be passed.

At the start, the war started over preserving the Union. But it was
clear that eventually slavery was going to be politically abolished in
all of the Union.

If you care to read about it, the Confederates themselves explained
quite clearly why they wanted to split from the Union in their
declarations of secession:

The Confederates came up with their alt-fact explainations for the war
after they lost and realized that that they brought ruination down
on the people of the South for the WORST possible reason.

The only "myth" refered to that I noticed is the claim that the United
States fought the Confederacy to end slavery. That's not quite the
case. The United States fought the Confederates to keep the States
UNITED. Later in the war, emancipation became a weapon against
the slave holders.

It is absolutely true that the Confederates tried to split the nation
because they wanted no part of slave emancipation.

One of the truths about the times is the Southern slaveholders could
have negotiated a gradual slave emancipation with the Lincoln
administration. THEY DID NOT.

As has been said many times:

"The Confederates wanted slavery without the United States more than
they wanted to stay in the United States without slavery".


Look at that 'cracker head' on him.

There's a succinct, if not powerful, refutation.
