Re: [FairfieldLife] Battle of Shiloh
Ollie the same went for the average northern soldier. Most could have cared less about anyone else's slave. They were drafted and forced to fight states in rebellion, not to free slaves. A large portion were even Irish immigrants, handed a rifle straight off the boat. Freeing slaves was a bi-product of the war that came in it's second year as a political move. It wasn't even enforceable. Lincoln only freed the slaves in states in rebellion, not the border states that remained loyal. Read a history book or two. Slavery was never outlawed until the thirteenth amendment was passed after the war ended. BTW, share cropping never existed until *after* the war. It was the plantation owners that *share cropped* because they had no slaves and no money. Former slaves, without a professional trade, agreed to farm the former plantation owner's land for a share of the crop and their homes as payment for their labor.If you don't want to read a history book on the subject at least go see "Hillary's America". Dinesh D'Souza goes in depth about the history of the Democratic party,slavery, Jim Crow, the Ku KLux Klan, post war reconstruction, lynchings,civil rights, women's suffrage, voting rights act, the New Deal, the Great Society and more.He even gives you how each party stood and voted on each matter and piece of legislation. It's all a matter of facts and congressional records and can be looked up in any history book dealing with those subjects.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Battle of Shiloh
Right, what you are looking at is the 'cultural' imprint. What I am looking at is an epigenetic stress that seems to have got put in to some of these people. They feel kind of energetically nuts charged on another level this way in the DNA when you see it. It is an aspect of the nurture/nature thing I am looking at with some folks and their ancestors. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, wrote : No Doug, it's a matter of pride.
