Yeah? You think there's someone who doesn't think it's their right to tell CA what to do? If advice were money. we'd own the planet; we certainly get enough. And if you clowns had freed the slaves like we told you to, we wouldn't have had to do it for you!

The Civil War explained it well when he said a Northern soldier asked a Southerner why he was fighting the War. The Southerner replied, "because you're down here," meaning you are invading our land and I have to defend myself. That is why many Southerners joined the cause. Excellent point! Many people took up arms because they were being invaded and they didn't wanna loose everything they worked so hard for. Slavery was an issue that was brought up after the war started there's documentated proof that many northerners owned slaves as well.
