We will see how that goes for them


The end result would be the same as the Confederacy.

The big question is if in 200 years crazy libs would still be referring to that ill-fated attempt as "we"?

First, it wouldn’t end the same. We wouldn’t attack and if we did, it wouldn’t last a week. We would let dog eat dog and they would fold into a mess in less than 5 years….

Also, in 200 years, wouldn’t the ill fated be referred to as “they/them”?

A shitload of shots with big arse cannons were fired at the Battle of Fort Jackson and Fort St Phillip.

And yet the Yankees still couldn’t capture Shreveport.


After the Mansfield/Pleasant Hill/Alexandria route they knew what the price would be. Shreveport would have been just as difficult as Vicksburg if not more so because of the distances involved. They would have taken it the same way. But it would have been a horror show.

Highland / Broadmoor would probably be a national park now.

Always fascinates me the amount of TD posters that say "we" when referring to the Confederacy.


It’s a song lyric, dumbass

What's funny is that, if you cross referenced their other posts on here, I'm sure they are the same people who are telling the libs to leave "their" country if they don't like that Trump won.

It seems as though you are a tool that thinks all Trump voters are racist…

Someone paid attention in Louisiana History class when we taught about General Order 28.

We didn’t go quietly. but instead of using guns, our ladies dumped chamber pots off the French Quarter balconies onto the heads of Union soldiers before going to Antoine’s.

It's the Pensacola FL cowards fault. When Ft. Sumter was attacked and taken Ft Pickens in Pensacola was also to be taken but the locals in Pensacola chickened out. By the time they got around to trying the Fort was already reinforced. The Yankees used the good harbor at Pensacola as a base to blockade all the Gulf ports and a spring board to take New Orleans and eventually Mobile.

Union occupation the ladies

Union “liberation.” The so-called Confederacy was the occupier. And most of those “ladies” were common whores, which Butler rightly ordered treated as such. Read more about it: Butler-True Blue
