Freedom, not an overthrow

Posted

To the Editor:

I want to vent about a bald-faced lie going around and I am tired of hearing it. In April 1861 the Southern States were NOT traitors trying to overthrow the government. The Southern States just wanted the freedom to leave the Union. Northern narcissists decided they had rather murder those who lived in the South instead of granting them the freedom to leave the Union.

Once again the Southern States are losing their freedoms. Someone or some organization is deleting the South’s freedom to the South’s Civil and Constitutional Rights to their History and Historical Monuments while using the bald-faced lie that in 1861 the Southern States were traitors.

It looks as if those deleting the Civil and Constitutional Rights of those who live in the South are also trying to delete the Civil and Constitutional Rights of ALL the fair-skinned school children in the U.S. by using something called CRT (Critical Race Theory); thus, punishing fair-skinned school children for what people did over 100 years ago.

With all the other countries working against us, one would think we would work together to make the United States the greatest and safest nation in the world. Because, if the U.S. is finally destroyed we will have nowhere to go. The other nations hate us and would not want us, nor would they send us food. We need to stop the lies and work together as a nation. We really need to make this the greatest and safest nation in the world for ALL Americans.
