OK, listen up:
The South, which STARTED the war by an unprovoked attack on a United States Government Military Installation LOST THE FECKING WAR! GET OVER IT!! STOP THE WHINING AND RATIONALIZATION ABOUT THE "GLORY" OF THE 'LOST CAUSE'
How were United States troops supposed to deal with people who had been shooting at them for four years, and continued to shoot at them after the surrender? Kiss and make up?
You people are unbelievable.
