You just admitted Quantrill murdered people in the Lawrence massacre, that he captured runaway slaves, and that he was an outlaw....

you just verified every claim i made.


Sounds like we're in perfect agreement.


...
No, we are not in perfect agreement. You present your list without any explanation of the reasons why. And so then put your stamp of evil upon Quantrill. Stupid.

If anyone wants to believe your understanding of history, they will be just as stupid.

And exactly what cause this guy fighting for? anything for the good, or positive??? lol..
'positive' such a queer word. Sort of like 'guys'. 'Guys' is a yankee word. So queer.

He was fighting for the survival of the Southern people.

He didn't fight to free the black slaves. This is the myth of they yankees and the blacks. They view Lincoln as the black Moses, who delievered them from slavery and brought them to the promised land.

The 'Emancipation Proclamation' was a war measure. It was not a humanitarian measure. It wasn't given till 1863, The war started in 1861. If the war was all about freeing the slaves and Lincoln was all about freeing the slaves, why didn't he emancipate in 1861?

Have you read the Emancipation proclamation. You should. It didn't free one slave. Lincolcn declared the slaves free in 'Confederate held territories' only. At this time in 1863, the yankees has already taken over much of the South where slaves existed. Guess what? They were not freed because they were no longer in Confederate held territories. So, Lincoln proclaimed the salves free that he couldn't free. Yet left the slaves in bondage who he could have freed.

It was a war measure. Lincoln hoped to inspire the slaves in the South to rise up against their masters and their families and kill them. But, guess what? They didn't. And they could have as most of the men of the South were gone to war. Instead the black slaves who had been part of the Southern culture, and their families, instead took care of those families instead of rebelling and klling them as Lincoln wanted them to do. Of course the NAACP will never give that history, as it doesn't make any hay for them.

Lincoln believed all the blacks should be sent back to Africa. Oh My....

If that is true, why then is he one of the most respected and beloved leaders in history?

No, Quantrill is right. It has been found in history that Lincoln thought whites superior to blacks. The North could not afford slaves and had no use for them... And I was taught this in high school American history. I did'nt read this in some cheezy magazine...

Not 'if' that is true. It is true.

Because we lost the war. Because we lost, we were the rebels instead of patriots. Because we lost, the victors wrote the history and determined who were the good people and bad people. Because we lost, the myth of Lincoln replaced the father of our nation, George Washington.

The north could afford slaves, but it wasn't profitable. Slavery was no longer practical. Once slaves could no longer be imported in 1808, I believe, the shipping industry was affected. It was the North's shipping industry that got rich off of slavery. The north was focusing on industrialization and slaves from Africa were not needed. Some may have freed their slaves. Most sold them to the South.

Strange isn't it. They sold them to the South, then years later, got on their high horse, and want the South to free all the slaves without any compensation. And so we become the evil people of the world.

We always need more humor around here.
Please joke away.

Guy 1, Did you hear about the 2 priests who walk into a bar?
Guy 2, No
Guy 1, Actually it was a Barmitzvah, they were so drunk they walked
right past the bar and into a Jewish temple.

Guy 1, Did you hear about the Lawyer who took the bar?
Guy 2, No, why did he take the bar?
Guy 3, He had too, the bartender couldn't afford the rent and his legal advice.

Guy, Knock Knock
Woman, Whose there?

So what resources would back up this claim? I'm not sure I would trust modern education.

I had no idea about the history with regards to Quantrill's raiders. Boy do I have much to learn about history. It is embarrassing to admit my lack of knowledge, but hopeful because I am learning. You all know so much, keeps me inspired to dig in. I will say this about peacemakers...

Blessed are they, for they are called the sons of God.

"Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.
Matthew 5:9 NASB

I think it is possible to disagree peacefully amongst each other. Possible in theory, but honestly we humans, myself of course included, shows daily just how we are limited in this capacity and potential. Where we are called to be of one accord is in Him and in Him alone. Thanks be to Him, we have hope. In the meantime, I pray our deliveries show hearts and minds that contain both truth and mercy. We are called to both. No offense intended but in my humble opinion, where our limited understandings are concerned, eliminating mercy shows His truth was lost in translation.

From the book (Emancipating Slaves, Enslaving Free Men, Jeffrey Rogers Hummel, Open Court Publishing, 1996, p. 116) comes this statement of Lincoln during the Lincoln/Douglas debates. The authors source is noted on p. 372 in endnote #15, which is The Lincoln Douglas Debates: The First Complete, Unexpurgated Text (New York: Harper-Collins, 1993), p. 189.

Douglas first says: "But for my own part, I do not regard the negro as my equal, and I positively deny that he is my brother, or any kin to me whatever."

Lincoln responds: "I will say then, that I am not nor ever have been in favor of bringing about in any way, the social and political eqalilty of the white and black races--that I am not, nor ever have been in favor of making voters of the negroes, or jurors, or qualifying them to hold office, or having them to marry with white people.

"I will say in addition, that there is a physical difference between the white and black races, which I suppose,will forever forbid the two races living together on terms of social and political equality[;] and as any other man am in favor of having the superior position assigned to the white man."


From the same book: (p. 210) "Southerners of course did not throw down their arms, and the President issued the final Emancipation Proclamation at the beginning of 1863. But it technically freed no slaves. As a war measure similar to that of the British during the American Revolution, the proclamation only applied to the areas still in rebellion. It did not emancipate any of the slaves in the four border states. Nor did it emancipate any slaves in those sections of the Confederacy that Union armies had already reconquered, including all of Tennessee and large portions of Virginia and Louisiana.

"The only slaves covered were the ones beyond the reach of Union authority. This anomaly inspired a cynical retort from Seward. 'We show our sympathy with slavery,' he stated the day after the proclamation was issued, 'by emancipating slaves where we cannot reach them, and holding them in bondage where we can set them free.'

"The London Spectator dismissed the proclamatin because it liberated 'the enemy's slaves as it would the enemy's cattle, simply to weaken them...The principle is not that a human being cannot justly own another, but that he cannot own him unless he is loyal to the United States."

The authors quote from the London Spectator he identifies in endnote #(14) p.378. It comes from (The Life of William H. Seward, Harper and Brothers, 1900, v. 2 p. 339.)
