...Yeah, different ideas regarding slavery. oOo:
Im not going to argue with you-but you have no idea what your talking about. Slavery wasnt an issue untill 1862. The Civil War started in 1861 when the South seceeded from the Union. The south suceeded because of states rights and taxes.

If you want to talk about slavery as the cause (even though taxes and states rights were) then what can you say. Are you talking about bleeding Kansas? Sure, this involved slavery a little, but it was mainly over the issue of who controlled the house and senate-salve or free states.

I really dont know what to tell you other than the fact that you are wrong.
