tejek Man oh man. That is so dumb. Jefferson Davis believed in States Rights. He was not a racist.
He had two sons. One who was his natural son and one he adopted. His adopted son was biracial.
You need to study history and clear some of that mud from between your ears.
There were some great Generals who fought with the Confederate Army who were not fighting for slavery

And why was states' rights so important to people like Davis? I'll tell you why............because that would mean they could ignore federal law and permit them to enslave people.........specifically black people. Its why states' rights has become code for denying equal rights to certain groups of people; why it was an important part of Reagan's speeches when he was speaking in the South. To southerners, southern protagonists and wingers everywhere, states' rights give you the right to screw with other people...........people you all don't like. And Jefferson Davis was a defender of those people and their corrupted way of life. Davis is not to be admired or honored

So save your hurt and indignation for the ignorant, white people the South is so good at producing...........the Dylann Roofs.
