Hey, I went to that school.

And my 4 yearbooks were called Kepi too. Kept waiting for a new name.

Surprised they're still the Rebels.

Well, I think they are.

It was about both, but mostly slavery per the declarations of secession.

Do you wear any other clothes to honor other relatives or just the ones that went to war against the US?

I find the fixation on this 5 year period of history perplexing.

As someone who grew up in Louisiana, that notion was so odd to me as a kid and then as I grew up, I just realized it was because of not-so-closeted racism.

Pineville Rebels up in this bitch. We probably hung out together. Or at least Eiffel towered a few skanks once or twice.

I have a VMI officers cape that would accessorize well with that cap.

Yeah the state's rights to own slaves

It was literally about whether or not any new states should be able to have slaves or not

Through out this past football season I have worn my LSU #7 jersey and a traditional grey Kepi (example pictured below)




I think a grown man wearing a Jersey (unless he's on a team) is probably worse than the 'Kepi', but it sounds like you got all your teams covered with that attire.

Pretty much, no idea why some people are so obsessed with some rich racist assholes wanting to be able to enslave people.

Is there anything wrong with what I did?

Besides clinging to erroneous old south arguments about the causes and controversies of the Civil War, no. Sweet hat baw
