Staff was always helpful and knowledgeable. <br />I've no doubt the relics of General Lee and Gen. Stewart will be, if lucky, hidden away in storage. Given the spiteful nature of The Woke I fear the objects will be destroyed.Stretchnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5183651835847025449.post-80605186883735313242021-03-01T18:43:09.239-06:002021-03-01T18:43:09.239-06:00"However, the black flag might have given the..."However, the black flag might have given the Yankees pause for thought."<br /><br />The South would have run out of ammunition before the North even ran out of Irish immigrants, let alone the rest of its population.Fa Cube Itchesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5183651835847025449.post-23321091586950702642021-03-01T16:58:43.731-06:002021-03-01T16:58:43.731-06:00Ms. Protopapas certainly expresses her ideas in a ...Ms. Protopapas certainly expresses her ideas in a manner understandable. In an article at Reckonin’, she includes this recommendation for conducting the war:<br /><br />“I myself see in this war, if the North triumph, a dissolution of the bonds of all society. It is not alone the destruction of our property…, but … the prelude to anarchy, infidelity, and the ultimate loss of free responsible government on this continent. With these convictions, I always thought we ought to meet the Federal invaders … and raise at once the black flag … 'No quarter to the Violators of our homes and firesides!' It would … have proved true humanity and mercy. The Bible is full of such wars, and it is the only policy that would bring the North to its senses." – Gen. T.J. Jackson.<br /><br />I tell you what, raising the black flag would have meant a thing horrendous to ponder, had the actions been carried out. However, the black flag might have given the Yankees pause for thought.<br />SgtBobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10028149066384197545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5183651835847025449.post-52828180229544468622021-03-01T16:15:09.690-06:002021-03-01T16:15:09.690-06:00There is still an awesome Museum of the Confederac...There is still an awesome Museum of the Confederacy in Greenville, South Carolina. Very well kept up, nice folks and even helped me when I was checking out an original Palmetto Armory 1842 pistol, because so many fakes are out there. If you're ever in Greenville, check it out, worth the effort!Wolffmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09835416912890686125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5183651835847025449.post-8418869813877311872021-03-01T15:53:39.224-06:002021-03-01T15:53:39.224-06:00Maybe we should call it "The Museum of The Wa...Maybe we should call it "The Museum of The War of Northern Aggression".Country Boyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10956952163303231460noreply@blogger.com
