Un-Civil War

These yankees just don't get it...

The discussion about the War of Southern Independence came up again at school today. Some people just can't understand that...well, let's see; how can I put this nicely...THE SOUTH WAS RIGHT! You see, the south was concerned about an increasingly powerful federal government; and what do we have today? A centralized all-powerful federal government that manages to ruin our lives.

States rights, not slavery, was the main issue of the war. The War of Southern Independence was, like most wars throughout history, fought for economic reasons. It's very similar to an incident that happened in the 1770s actually. Well, I could rant and rave about this one for hours...but I'm not gonna bother. After all, I do have the advantage of having historical facts, deductive reasoning, and plain old common sense on my side.

Well, until tomorrow...stay cool, way down south in Dixie!
