Really does put into perspective how shitty the south was, huh?

I thought we were supposed to be the ones who are good with guns.



you should read more and post less. The north had industry while the south was agriculture. The north could produce guns, ships, cannons, etc. also the north had more people.

The south was less populated and could not produce weapons of was from sugar cane, rice, cotton, etc.

That was the motivation of North, they wanted to pay less for agriculture products made in South. As the problem grew, North began creating reasons for war with South. The war never was about slavery. That was an afterthought.

Incorrect. The war was entirely about slavery. And most of the North was agriculture, too. But you’ll never hear the South admit they got their asses kicked by a bunch of farm boys from Ohio. Hurts too much to admit that the SEC lost a home game to the Big-10.
