  2. If the Yankees invaded the South because it was wrong for states to secede - - - ,

    Then WHY was it right when Western counties, which supported the North, seceded from Virginia, thereby creating the new state of West Virginia?

  3. Thanks, Brock for sending me the great video. So many attack me for my views and think I'm crazy. Remember, the pledge of allegence says, in it, "indivisable".

    1. pledge of allegiance

      Socialist. The Founders would be horrified that people pledge allegiance to a flag and not the Constitution.

  4. Houston, we have a problem!

    If Tom Woods is correct and I know he is, then Lincoln unconstitutionally attacked the Southern States. That is because the Southern States were right.

    The problem is, as Tom kind'of referenced is, the Federal Government will not and cannot admit secession is Constitutional because, if they done so they would also be admitting that the Southern States were right and that the Federal Government was the aggressors.

    Roger that... We definitely have a problem. Any ideas?

    Houston, I can only give you a parable: How can you make a blind man see?

    It's not possible to make a blind person see when they already know that if they look, they won't like what they see. Where's any motive to see when one already knows it will be to their detriment?

    Houston... Well then, we're gonna crash and burn!

  5. I wonder if folks in West Virginia are even the least bit embarrassed by the uncomfortable realization that their state was created by folks who seceded from the Confederate States of America?

    It sort of makes them appear rather hypocritical when they point fingers at Southern states, huh?

    Come to think of it, didn't West Virginia's secession and collaboration with the Union constitute out and out TREASON against both the Commonwealth of Virginia AND the Confederate States of America?

    1. Against the Commonwealth, that's for sure. All of West Virginia was not so inclined, in fact the Greenbrier County area was pro-Confederate, but forced by the Tyrant to remit.

  6. Is an interesting possible contradiction. I understand that all counties in Virginia voted to secede when put to the vote. This would include those counties that became WV. However there were less than a dozen people that were already disgruntled with Richmond before the vote on secession. These people plotted to break away from VA after the vote on secession and they conferred with the Federals in DC in order to accomplish their deed. They claimed those counties did not recognize Richmond as their capital of authority. From what I understand from here, was, another vote was allowed and conducted by the Federals in which the counties were allowed to vote on seceding from VA. I can see many reasons why a vote would pass under these conditions.

    1. Yes and it was also admitted as a slave state.

  9. I find that her whole article quiet interesting, truthful and justifiable. She spoke the whole truth! Everyone needs to read her whole story...

    I never heard of this before either, but it aptly applies.
