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.
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.” -

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.

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!”
