we're talkin' bout people's great-grandparents here who gave their lives, and stupid is an interesting word to use, for someone who couldn't follow the basic structure of a sentence. You are declaring by my reading that it is you in fact that don't understand the war ended since you've adopted the moniker we give to these people who use the flag negatively and believe thusly. Your logic befuddles me so I'm gonna give up on it; a witty retort indeed. Take the time to read words before trying to attack on grounds that aren't even there, Until this paragraph I've said nothing that should've offended you other than to say your Kentucky upbringing was atypical.
on a side note i ask people what kinda coke they want to refer to any carbonated, caffeinated beverage, and if not that ill ask if they want a cold drink
During the War of the Rebellion twice as many white Kentuckians fought for The United States as rebelled against it. When United States Colored Troops from Kentucky are counted about three times as many Kentuckians fought for The United States as rebelled against it.
Loyalty was especially strong in the mountainous eastern sections of Kentucky and Tennessee where there was little slavery; indeed about 25,000 east Tennesseans fought for The United States and the rebel general Morgan from Lexington Kentucky was shot dead by an east Tennessee American soldier who on shooting Morgan declared he'd "killed the old horse thief".
Living in Lexington I don't feel that I'm living in the south at all; the town just seems generic whitebread American for better or worse. Get south of town and it gets feeling pretty southern.
Hmmm, I really don't think I've seen a Mimosa tree around here. Guess it's a Western KY thing?
