Dear Editor:

I don’t hate anybody! I love all people and all races! I do have righteous anger when radical Islamic terrorists kill innocent people. The American Civil War was fought for many reasons. The freeing of black slaves was just one of them. Ninety percent of the Southerners who fought and died in that war didn’t own slaves. Back then people looked at their states as their countries. Many southerners fought because they felt their countries were being invaded by the North. Many good men & women on both sides died because the hot heads North and South ruled the day!

I’m not a violent person and never have been but I’ll fight to preserve the resting places, memorials and memories of my ancestors who fought and died in that war!
