Why did the United States have a "Civil War"?

I am dedicating this blog on the War for Southern Independence, aka, The War of Northern Aggression, aka, the Civil War, to my boy Hal Smith and others who are fans of Abraham Lincoln and who believe the north are the good guys and the dichotomy of the South are the villains.  I owe the inspiration to this blog from a book entitled, The South Was Right!, by James Ronald Kennedy who points out how the reality and truth are often completely different. For example, if you watch CNN Fake News, their bias in their political reporting is truly disgusting. Another false narrative told to us by the pagan run United States government public schools is that the South was at fault for the Civil War. Are we supposed to believe that the United States government is going to condemn their own actions in the Civil War and act contrary to what 100% of every government agency will do from the USSR, to Nazi Germany, to our United States government and try to make the case on anything that they are honest, ethical and truthful on everything? Now if you believe that our government is honest, and truly serving some altruistic causes, may I kindly ask you where are you are getting your marijuana from?  

While I used the term “Civil-War” in my title, it is actually an incorrect phrase to describe the actions of northern aggression that occurred on US soil. The truth is that there were not two factions trying to gain control of the government like we see in other Civil Wars. In reality, it was one group (South) who wanted to secede because of an oppressive controlling government and another group (North) who wanted to force the South to remain and forced them to do so. You know today it is a pretty popular saying, “America- love it or leave it”. That sentiment was obviously not in effect in 1861. as the South did just that- leave. The South just told the North essentially, to go kick rocks. And there are some who say that secession is wrong because we should be putting our country first. Well I wonder if the people who thought that when Tejas, aka Texas to some of you, seceded from mother Mexico.

Before we get into the meat of the blog, I just wanted to set the set the scene from the standpoint of life in 1860. Our United States pagan run public schools would have us believe that the South was a poor and backward area prior to the war. The facts tell a different story. For example, in 1860, if the South had been an independent nation her economy would have ranked as the third largest on the European and American continents. According to the 1860 census, the South had a per capita income ten percent higher that all states west for New York and Pennsylvania.

According to Dr. Grady McWhitney, author of Celtic Ways in the Old South, Southerners were culturally different than their Yankee counterparts. In the South, the culture centered around low-intensity crop cultivation. This stood in contrast to the money-grubbing Yankee culture. So it appears that Yankee culture 150 years ago was comparable to what we see in modern Dallas culture with the obsession with money and status. Most Southern people are completely different. Dr McWhitney added that,

“The South seceding from the North because the two are not homogenous. They have different instincts, different appetites, different morals and different cultures.” - Anthony Trollope (1861) – British citizen

Not-so-Honest Abraham Lincoln and the slavery myth
The Emancipation Proclamation was a presidential proclamation and executive order issued by President Abraham Lincoln on January 1, 1863. This proclamation took place well after the start of the Civil War. The truth is that Lincoln’s so-called Emancipation Proclamation was not designed to free the slaves. A reading of the proclamation will show that Lincoln declared FREE SLAVES who were held “within any State or designated part of a State the people whereof shall be in rebellion AGAINST the United States”. In other words, he declared free slaves over whom he had no control, i.e., the Confederacy. But what about those slaves within states or portions thereof where Lincoln had control and supposedly could have declared free, i.e., the north? Not a word is said about these slaves. Indeed six parishes in Louisiana that were at the time were invaded and conquered by the North were specifically excluded from this great document of freedom, as were the 48 counties designated as West Virginia! It may come as a surprise to many that Yankee general Ulysses S. Grant Grant’s wife held personal slaves at the beginning of the war. Grant’s slaves were only freed by the passage of the Thirteenth amendment which passed after the end of the war. So much for the myth that Lincoln was the Great Emancipator.

“I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the white and black races, that I am not nor ever have been in favor of making voters or jurors of negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office….” – Abraham Lincoln (1858) debate with Stephen Douglas

Another myth was that Lincoln was the protector of liberty. The doctoral power of Lincoln is evidenced when he suspended the writ of habeas corpus. Habeas corpus is a recourse in law whereby a person can report an unlawful detention or imprisonment before a court, usually through a prison official. Some writers place the number of Lincoln’s political prisoners as high as forty thousand. What a great guy huh? Boy, and I thought barack hussein obama had control problems. These individuals whom Lincoln targeted were indefinitely held without knowing what, if any, charges were brought against them without receiving bail or the services of an attorney. Indeed, many of their families did not know where they were. More than three hundred newspapers and journalists were shut down by executive order. Can you imagine the chaos and outrage today if President Trump shut down #FakeNews CNN? A member of Lincoln’s cabinet had a bell on his desk about which the secretary would brag that he could send any American to prison just by ringing that bell!

So-called-Honest Abe used his powers to illegally imprison people he hated. An example of that is the story of Captain Robert Tansill, US Marines Corps. Captain Tansill resigned his commission when he read Lincoln’s 1861 inaugural address because as he said he supported the Constitution and had a different point of view of it than Lincoln did. Captain Tansill presented his letter to the Secretary of the Navy Gideon Welles who refused to accept his resignation and dismissed him on the spot (you can’t quit- I fire you). That same evening, Captain Tansill was arrested and sent to jail. Captain Tansill wrote letters to Lincoln deserving to know the charges but to no avail. Lincoln did not allow Captain Tansill to see his family. It’s pretty amazing that we never were taught as kids stories of so-called “Honest Abe” in our United States government run pagan public schools isn’t it?
In addition to Lincoln conning everyone on the slave issue, using the law to imprison those who he hated, Lincoln also used his office to reward men who were conducting heinous crimes of terrorism against the Southern civilian population that would make the “Religion of Peace” envious. The Southern people were forced to endure innumerable acts of rape, robbery, pillage and plundering, all at the hands of the United States military personnel. These acts were well known in Washington. One of those men who committed crimes against Southerners was Colonel John B. Turchin. Turchin was court-martialed for his crimes not limited to plunder and pillage, destroying Bibles, defacing property, debauching females, raping women, etc. The court-martial of a ranking officer is not done overnight. The officials in Washington were aware of the crimes being committed by military personnel. Yet even though Colonel Turchin was under court-martial for horrible crimes against innocent civilians and subsequently found guilty, President Lincoln promoted Colonel Turchin to the ranking of Brigadier General of the United States Volunteers on August 5, 1862! I can now see why the US public schools promote Lincoln as a man of character.

Lincoln’s record gets even worse. To reiterate, not only did Lincoln conceive citizens about his view of slavery, punishing people who he hated, rewarding thugs that committed despicable crimes against Southerners, Lincoln has the dubious distinction of being the only American president who personally ordered the mass execution of Americans whose guilt could not be positively determined. In Minnesota, several tribes of Native Americans revolted against the US government. General John Pope rounded up 300 warriors, out of which Lincoln selected thirty nine to be executed. These Native Americans were executed to assuage the fears of white Minnesotans so they would vote for the re-election of Lincoln, which they did. Lincoln is America’s only president to order a mass execution! Isn’t it wonderful that we have this man on our $5 bill?

Southern Secession and the Reasons It Happened
It has been estimated that 70 to 80 percent of Confederate soldiers and sailors were not slave owners. So let’s the US government’s narrative that the South seceded so that it’s citizens can own slaves to bed shall we?

General James Marshall-Cornwall said in his book, Grant as a Military Commander that, “The real issue between the North and the South was political and economical.” He described the economic pressure on the North to protect its industrial expansion with high tariffs, whereas Southern agriculture needed free trade. Thus the animosity and tension between two sections were based on upon different cultures with conflicting economic systems. The Abolitionists claimed that slavery was the cause off the loss of wealth in the South. Professor Jonathan Elliot, a teacher of science at Harvard University, discounted the theory and stated that federal legislation in regard to Tariff Acts was the culprit. When the Northern President Lincoln was asked why the North should not let the South go, his reply was, “Let the South go? Let the South go! Where then shall we get all of our revenues?

The fear of the North losing its commercial advantages to the states along the Mississippi was a prime factor in the North’s invasion of the South. Just weeks before the firing of the first shots of the war, the New York Times ran a story about how the commerce of the North would be lost to New Orleans and to the rest of the South because of the low Southern tariff. Northerners even admitted that their reason for fighting the South were not the result of differences of constitutional law but only because their profits might be lost if the South was successful in its move for independence.

It was only after the South has seceded from the Union with the North that a clear and unqualified prohibition was written into the Constitution outlawing the slave trade as Article 1, Section 9, of the Confederate States of America. That’s right; it was not the United States Constitution that made the first clear and unqualified prohibition against slave trade, but the Confederate States Constitution.

Southern devastation courtesy of the United States Military
Early in July 1864, General William Sherman of the Northern Army was pressing towards Atlanta. He sent his army into Atlanta to “make Georgia howl.” The food supply and factories were destroyed. At that time in history, people grew and preserved their own food. By depriving people of their food supply, the Yankee invader was condemning Southerners to death by starvation. Homes were pulled down and burned. All personal property that could be consigned to the flames was destroyed. Even jewelry such as wedding bands were pulled from ladies’ hands by Northern armies. Sherman and his Yankee army members forced innocent women and children to perish in one of the cruelest ways. A pretty interesting action coming from the group who wrapped the cloak of self-righteousness who proclaimed themselves as the beacon of right and good.


With little or no concern for homes, women and their children were torn from their families and shipped north. The vast majority of these people would never see their loved ones again. In all, more than two thousand women, children and a few old men were collected. Tearful mothers were forced to watch as children, who had worked in the factories, were dragged away from their home- almost none of them would ever be heard from again. Even after the end of the war, the United States government never made any attempt to reunite these families!


Northern General John McNeil put civilians, not military personnel, into jail for expressing their pro-Southern point of view. McNeil then ordered ten men to be chosen for execution. These ten men were not selected at random. McNeil gave orders to execute that only those of high social, military, educational, and professional background were to be chosen. All but one of the men were active in their church and most were family men. Upon reaching the fairgrounds, the men were placed in a row a few feet away from thirty United States soldiers. At the command, “ready, aim, fire”, the orders was carried out. The only problem was that only three of the men were killed instantly. Those individuals were shot a second time at point blank range this time killing the remainder of the men. This incident did not pass without protest. Not only in the South, but in London and even in the North, decent people made large protests about this barbaric act. But whatever happened to General McNeil? The result may surprise you. Lincoln, as he did with the thug, Colonel Turchin, who committed unconscionable acts of violence against Southerners, promoted McNeil to the rank of Brigader General of the United States Volunteers.

In June 1864, Louisiana governor Harry Watkins Allen appointed commissioners to collect testimonies from eyewitnesses of the Yankee invasion of his state. Allen felt necessary to put these incidents to the written record. A review of the history of the conduct of the Yankee troops in Louisiana will bring this fact to light: (1) The invader felt that nothing Southerners owned or cared for was to be held. This was to include not only homes, but furniture, clothes, crops, and the tools for food production, but also churches. The Mississippi River offered the highway a natural highway into the lower portion of the state. With the fall of New Orleans, the people got their first taste of Yankee justice. In April 1862 a twenty-one year old New Orleans man, William Mumford who refused to see the flag of tyranny fly above New Orleans, so he removed the United States flag from the mint building. Northern General Benjamin Butler demanded that the young man be arrested and sentenced to death by hanging. This tragedy is not breaking news as I’ve read other books over the years that detailed this same story. A small portion of the rope used to murder this innocent young man is maintained in the Confederate Memorial Hall in New Orleans to this day. No foreign occupier has ever been held in as much contempt as Ben Butler. Butler also issued the infamous decree that stated that any Yankee officer of the United States could and should treat the ladies of the city as if they were prostitutes. He sent to prison, without a grand jury, both women and leaders of the clergy because they did not accept Yankee invaders with open arms. He closed churches and newspapers at his will if they he felt that they were not loyal to the Yankee government. And I thought barack obama were hostile to Christians. While true, apparently even that creep obama doesn’t have a record like the US Military under Abe Lincoln in the 1860’s. Throughout Louisiana, hostile acts of terrorism occurred by the Northern army. For example, in Alexandria, 90% of the city was consumed by fires, and I could go on and on.  

Thousands of non-combative Southerners died as a result of the deliberate shelling of civilian targets, the blockade of medical supplies, the burning of civilian homes, the forced displacement of the civilian population, the starvation that resulted from the deliberate destruction of civilian food supplies and the implements necessary to grow food crops.

Southern vs. Northern views on the Federal Government
The primary desire of the framers of the United States Constitution was to design a government that would possess only those powers necessary to carry out the basic needs of the thirteen states. Each state would reserve its own sovereignty to itself, while delegating a portion of the sovereign authority to the federal government. The federal government therefore was created by the states as their agents to perform only those duties the states individually could not accomplish. The states did not intend to create a superior institution to sit in judgment over them, but rather intended to, and in fact did, create a co-ordinate (state/federal) government. From this situation arises the irrepressible question: When did the states surrender their delegated rights to the central government? The South has always favored a limited government. In the Declaration of Independence, southerner Thomas Jefferson defended the actions of the colonies against the King of England’s abuses and usurpations by describing a large number of abuses by the King against the American people. Jefferson proclaimed that the right of the people to abolish any government that encroaches certain unalienable God-given rights. Later in Kentucky and Virginia’s cases against an intrusion of federal government, Jefferson defended the rights of the states against the federal government. 

Even after the adoption of the Bill of Rights in 1791, the states were still very cautious of the acts of the Federal Government. The states became enraged when the federal Supreme Court stated that Article III of the United States Constitution permitted states to be sued in federal courts by citizens of another state. The state of Georgia was ordered to appear before the court. In Chisholm v. Georgia, Georgia refused to appear, stating that the states were co-equal with the federal government, and therefore could not be compelled by the federal government to act against their will. The Georgia legislature passed a bill ordering any federal agent attempting to execute the court’s order should … “suffer death, without the benefit of clergy, by being hanged.” Now that’s what I’m talking about Jack! Can we please hang or at least deport many of our career politicians who commit treason against citizens of our country please? Eleven of the thirteen states immediately ratified the Eleventh Amendment to the Constitution declaring the United States Supreme Court has no judicial power to hear a suit against a state brought by an individual.

The central theme here is that the Northern majority used unconstitutional, illegal and immoral methods to change the original Constitutional-Republic into a centralized national government that it now controls. Doesn’t this sound exactly like what we are seeing today (Obergefell v. Hodges, men in women’s restrooms, etc.). The North changed the very nature of the government from a voluntary compact among sovereign states to an empire established the North via the conquest of the numerical minority of the South. So this Northern tyrannical Federal government we have in place today is brought to you exclusively by the acts of Northern Aggression against the South’s insistence on sovereignty from the 1860’s.

“The worst fears of those Boys in Gray are now a fact of American life- a federal government completely out of control.” - Professor Jay Hoar of Maine

In conclusion, the War for Southern Independence was a culmination of the struggle between the forces of a strong centralized government and the forces of a limited central government and the political and economic differences between the two that were too great to continue. It’s unfortunate to realize that a big bloated controlling government won. As Ann Coulter would echo 150 years later, “Adios America!”
