Yes, Bryan, I removed a couple of postings that were completely off-topic and a little over the edge. I really would like to have a discussion about Unionists in Arkansas. My family was especially effected in Western Arkansas, most of them fleeing to the Indian Territory, and I know how complicated and dangerous the area was from about December of 1862 till the end of the war. There were many atrocities and families and communities were horribly divided, but for some folks, even 145 years later, they want to fight this thing out again, as though, there are Bushwhackers and Jayhawkers still at large. Hopefully, as I know you do, we can look at it a little more dispassionately and give the benefit of the doubt to people, many of whom were in helpless and hopeless situations. It's really interesting history, if you can read it without becoming personally involved.
