All these men fought for secession from the U.S., to call them "American Heroes" is absolutely ridiculous.

The correct term is The War of the Rebellion. That's the term used in my family history book, written in part by ancestors (four brothers) who served in the Army of the Potomac and were wounded at the battles of Gettysburg, Seven Stones and Chickamauga.

So some of your Yankee ancestors invaded the South, and now you're telling us what term to use to describe the invasion? Thanks, but no thanks.

Does this fact really matter? By this logic you are saying that Vietnam vets are not heroes

Lets just say - Big Scrub - that it is okay to admire the elan and bravery displayed by the CSA in a lost cause. While I agree with their higher ideals - of state sovereignty - the stain of slavery and the unfortunate devolvement into violence (neither side had clean hands on this - it is the stronger argument that, by the time Lincoln was inaugurated, the South was itching for a fight - wrongheaded and self-destructive as that was) continues to make this a murky issue, rather than a cut and dried one.

I agree with General James P. "Pete" Longstreet - "I think we should have freed the slaves - THEN fired on Fort Sumter."

I haven't read the link yet, but...

During the long build up to the American Revolution, the majority of American colonists wanted nothing to do with secession. By the mid-1770s, roughly a third of the population was for independence, a third were Loyalists and the rest didn't even want to be involved in the argument.

"We" eventually won, so Sam Adams and his cohorts are now know as patriots. However, if they had lost, they would have been branded as treasonous rebels.
