[QUOTE="Brownslave688, post: 1712095, member: 34439"] Really because the north invaded the south not vise versa. And it was simply a battle flag it was never the flag Of the confederate states of America. Let's not get into facts like Lincoln could if cared less about the slaves. He said so many times. Free them or don't he didn't care. He just wanted to "keep the union together" aka the north didn't think they could survive without the worth. While South Carolina may have seceded mostly based on slavery (highly debatable) the war itself was not fought over slavery. If it were Lincoln would of made the emancipation deceleration on day 1. Oh and all that did was free slaves in the south. The north still had slaves until the 13 amendment was passed in December of 1865. In fact Lee the leader of the south forces chose to free all of his slaves 3 years before the war ended. While most of the norths generals traveled with their personal slaves throughout the war. Like I said lets not talk fact though. The whole flag debate is stupid there is no definition for what it stands for. It stands for what each individual makes it stand for. [/QUOTE]
