many other "apologist" and racist organizations is responsible for contributing to the notion that there was something "noble" about the antebellum South. Here is an excerpt from a Wikipedia article about the formation and mission of the SCV:
The Sons of Confederate Veterans describes its mission as "preserving the history and legacy of heroes, so future generations can understand the motives that animated the Southern Cause."
Stephen D. Lee's 1906 charge to the SCV is widely cited by the organization as one of its organizing principles:
"To you, Sons of Confederate Veterans, we will submit the vindication of the cause for which we fought. To your strength will be given the defense of the Confederate soldier's good name, the guardianship of his history, the emulation of his virtues, and the perpetuation of those principles he loved. Remember, it is your duty to see that the true history of the South is presented to future generations."
{emphasis added}
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sons_of_Confederate_Veterans- "Motives that animated the Southern Cause?" What in the hell "cause" would that be? "Cause we 'uns needed the sub-human darkies to do the work for us?"
- "Vidication of the cause for which
we fought?" What "vidication" would that be bubba? Perpetual racism and being proud of it?
- "Emulation of his virtues?" Virtues like buying and selling other human beings, splitting up families, and breeding humans like cattle? Those fucking virtues?
- "Perpetuation of those principles he loved?" Like racism. bigotry, hatred, refusal to accept Reconstruction, Separate-but-Equal segregation 100 years
after getting your collective asses kicked by the
real Americans who actually founded this country? Those fucking principles?
- "true history of the South?" Look in ANY fucking history book worldwide! The "true history of the South" is still with us today, and shows its ugly face in the form of residual racism, bigotry, and hatred by those whose illiterate and ignorant ancestors got exactly what they deserved, and who are STILL fighting a war they can't admit to losing.
An organization which seeks to perpetuate the
principles of slavery, bigotry, and the glorification of hatred is no better than any other white-supremacist group. So run along Bubba, and fly your pathetic and disgraced Confederate Flag at "re-enactments" of the ass-whoopin y'all received from the ancestors of those of us who see through your thinly-veiled rednecked bullshit.
My friend is married to a "Mexican Gal?" My God, but you and your kind are sincerely pathetic. Please, just go on back to FR and celebrate with your rednecked buddies about how stupid the North was to even attempt to bring reason and equality to the United States of America and its citizens.
The South will rise again? As one of your rednecked heroes, Sarah Palin, would say: "You betcha..."
