The blacks here in Alabama are proud to be called Southerners..we all live together and work together and to continue to misrepresent what that war was originally started over is wrong....as I have said before,slavery was evil and wrong but the whole truth of that war is not told..just myths and lies. Why do people not acknowledge the other slaves of those times? Anyone with info on the Irish that immigrated here and were kept as "indentured servants"? Another fact: Birmingham,Alabama made the top 10 list of the most dangerous cities to live in..that city is run completely by Black leaders..the same ones that say they can do nothing to stop the murder rate from climbing everyday..the same ones that take taxpayers money (the folks that work) and fly to BLACK ONLY Conventions? Is this not wrong to be allowed to continue? All in the name of PC'ism? Sterotyping does no good for anyone. Oh and one more thing..try talking to the families of three Birmingham Police Officers that were murdered for trying to serve a warrant in a neighborhood that is controlled by gangs? They were set up to be murdered and it was made out to a racial issue? That is wrong..and things like that will continue until people are accepted for who they are..not skin color..there is good and bad in all heritages.
