You think the Confederacy started the civil war to disrespect America???? I think someone might need to brush up on their 3rd grade history.

That being said, I'm a "Yankee", I do not approve of what the Confederacy stood for, nor what they did. But unfortunately, it IS OUR HISTORY, and we should not try to erase it, unless you support mass book burnings. Oceania was pretty good at rewriting history.
