    While I agree that, in general, we are a nation of giant pussies, I still think that you are making a false equivalency, that the difference in scale here is a few orders of magnitude.

      Honoring persecution is stupid.
      Thats true, which of course has nothing to do with what this event is about. Is it your position that there was nothing going on at the time except a slavery debate? Or are you about to point out a source that say slavery is not included in this history month?

          Voting themselves out is exactly what the Confederates did, and then politely and peacefully asked those who wanted to remain with the North to leave. The response was to reinforce their garrisons.

          I doubt the Canadians would respond to such a democratic, legal, and popular initiative in such a fashion.

            And you're completely ignoring that the Canadian violence is both recent and associated with an ongoing separatist movement, while the Confederacy hasn't bothered anyone in America in 7 generations. Why does it matter that the Civil War was bigger when no one alive today has any connection to it?

              Oerdin is in San Diego. He may be a bicycle seat sniffer, but he's not in Quebec.

                Confederate attempts to disguise treason as a legitimate action fool no one.

                    You're going to have to make a lot of ethical backflips to justify the South's defense of slavery, Patroklos.

                      When did Oerdin become a nazi apologist?

                          Why would I do such a thing when I said the exact opposite?

                            You couldn't shoot jack****. Why don't you meet me in New Mexico and we can have us a duel, Mr. Billy Badass.

                              I mentioned Quebec because people were talking about it.
