Chase,

Drop your shield, you seem tyo have the attitude of let's argue just because we can. Either my post did not come out clear or you mis-understood, let me try again.

About the USCT, I know some died, not doubt, but the point being made, all of them did not see combat, they all were not heroes and the North more than likely would have won without them, all points this poster was trying to force. SHAPE has also protested the placing of monuments to USCT in battlefields where they took no active part in the battle. So you see we try honor your side also, keep history accurate.

In regard to our overseas members and their views and when they developed, I really do not care. What difference does it make? Facts are facts history is history and within these rules they post. That is what I care about.

Now about me arguing 5 or 6 to 1, yes i have been there right here on this board. In fact there have been times the only one posting actual reserached facts and standing up for my ancestors has been me. There are a couple of reason I don't vist many WBTS message boards, time is a major factor, I have so many irons in the fire I just do not have the time, the Yankee attitude is another factor. Thosefolks get insulted when facts are quoted start hollering, screaming insulting and so forth it just becomes a waste of time. I have walked into NAACP Camps and KKK rallies and been surrounded by screaming idiots, so this board or other boards is no big challenge I repeat time is the major factor.

You are welcome to the SHAPE board and read what we are all about. You may not like it we are a bit boring, discuss different issues happening today that threatens our Southern Heritage. We deal with facts as written, and reserach these facts, then we make these findings known to the required persons. Granted a lot of it will be race based because 99% of those who attack us are black.

Nathan Bedford Forrest is at the top of the list now, know very many facts about him?
