• Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

And so it begins…

Well, hope you’re right. People just can’t understand that the common confederate soldier was fighting in the spirit of 76. Not for slavery.

The states seceding was all about states' rights, largely the right to be slave states, but you are correct that most confederate soldiers were not fighting for slavery. I'd think most were fighting because the North was invading. Slavery was certainly not their cause. My granddad, born around 1920, like many old southerners, always called it the war of northern aggression.

Same with my family. They’re still proud of the rebel flag and they were chased out of AR by the KKK

Trump may not be perfect. He does some things that make you scratch your head. Many times I would wish that he would just shut the fuck up because it would make his job easier. But this raid crosses the line and demonstrates why we need him. The elites/libs/establishment/swamp fear him so much that they are willing to go to this extreme route to make sure he can’t run. If those who are our enemies are willing to go to these lengths to keep him out of power then I am willing to overlook any flaws he has. He’s exactly what our country needs.
