      Humm, I wouldent go so far as to say the civil war has NOTHING to do with slavery, just that it was not its purpose. The issue of slavery was very much one of the sparks that lead to the civil war (Dred Scott v Sanford, the esclating tension between establishing new states as slave or free, etc) Lincoln knew it would be either all or nothing and that there would be no comprimise regardless of the economic ramifications of destroying the south's workforce, thats more or less how the proclaimation came about. So yes the civil war did have something to do with slavery.

      As little as 10 cents a day and you can buy my family out of slavery... Hurry before its too late!

        Not that I don't think its an interesting issue or one not worth talking about... but lets keep this thread on-topic and leave the civil war and flags for another. Now, if only I had a digital picture to post...

          Well, im keeping it off topic, i found out recently, and found it interesting, thats near the end of the war the south let slaves fight. They passed a law saying a slave could join the army, there wasnt any bonus to doing this, however a lot of the slaves did join the army because they felt they were fighting for "their country." So if they fought under the confederate flag, i dont think it represented what most people think it does.

            the Confederate Battle Flag (that exact flag is the Navy Jack flown on the masts of the Confederates Navy ships) and the Confederates flags represent freedom. Any affiliation with racists, neo-nazi's etc. is not endorsed by the southern states.
            However, the idea of the Confederates was to split a young great nation, therefore I oppose the flag

            If you're still offended by it, you should be offended by the american flag.
            The current U.S. flag was made way after the civil war and has nothing to do with slavery. It may still have 13 stripes, referring to the original 13 colonies, however I believe that's merely to keep with the tradition of the flag.

            I'm very sorry, for straying away from the subject, I will post a pic of myself as soon as I get a good one:) if anyone wants to continue with the "other" topic, plz start another thread for it.

                I know it's not a real good shot, it being I'm still wearing my mask and all, but it's all I got. I'm the one in the background, holding the 'mag of course.
                Once you have shot and eliminated someone, you have established your position towards them. In a sense, the next move is up to them...
