A quote from (Battle From The Start, Brian Steel Wills, Harper Collins, 1992) "Through painstaking research, two scholars, John Cimprich and Robert C. Mainfort, Jr., have studied the 'Fort Pillow massacre' in great detail. These men found that the garrison of 585 to 605 men suffered deaths or...

Quotes from (First with the Most, Robert Selph Henry, Konecky&Konecky, 1992). These come well into the fight and after the Confederates had gained much ground and position. "In this state of affairs when, as Anderson wrote, 'it was perfectly apparent to any man endowed with the smallest amount...

Yes, emphasis on your words, "I personally don't know much about it". As can be seen by your many posts. Your obsession with the illumanati, and Mylee Cyrus, doesn't fit in here. Go start your fantasy elsewhere. You and the bird can chirp together. I am talking about history. Of which...

The majority of Americans are ignorant of what the War between the States was all about. Then you have a large percentage who believe the commonly used phrase that it was over slavery etc. etc. Then there are those who when they are shown things about that war, that go against their so...

First of all, the 'sworn testimony' you give is hearsay. It is given by one who was apparently on one of the River gun boats and troop transports near by. It is given by one who 'heard' this or that. He is reporting what was told him after the fight. Second of all, what exactly in the...

Only in your imagination. "During this sojourn within the territory held by the Union a part of Forrest's command stormed and captured Fort Pillow....The 'Massacre of Fort Pillow' became the 'atrocity' of the Civil War---which had atrocities, North and South, quite in the modern manner of the...

Your ignorance speaks volumes. Stranger

Do you? Well learn and teach this. I was being nice in just using the word 'yankee' by itself. But that is really a partial word. The complete word, which demands capitalization is 'Damnyankee'. That is one word and not two...understand. You never were a teacher. You simply inhaled...

Predictable Mary You have nothing so you turn to the ever so powerful accusation of 'slavery'. My gosh. If it isn't Hitler, it's slavery. Stranger

Oh yes they would swear on the mother's grave. yankee swearing means nothing. yankee swearing is another term for 'lie'. Stranger

Well show me your quotes from other's who are not yankees or who do not hold to the yankee lies. Stranger

I read your post. Where did the sworn testimony come from? Stranger

Other yankee men. The victor likes to write....or rewrite...the history. Do you agree? Stranger

Well, if I give you quotes from the Southern soldiers who were there, what would you say? Yet you only give quotes from yankee's. Stranger

Where did the sworn testimony come from? Yes it matters if the Fort surrendered. If it didn't surrender the fight was still on. That is the way it is in war. Stranger

Sorry Mary, I don't believe you. I don't believe you can twist history as you do and still pretend to have a love for me. Stranger

Oh gee...from the union army. My oh my how the tables turn. When the yankees kill any southernor it is just 'total war'. But man, when the rebles kill the yankees, it is a massacre. You are so predictable Mary. Stranger

Where did you get this quote Mary? Why do you believe the quote? Did the Fort ever surrender Mary? Stranger

But, you know you baled when you bailed. Sure you are. I am sure I am the first on your prayer list every night when you hit the hay. Please. Stranger

What massacre? Go back and reread Mary. I never denied Forrest was the first leader of the KKK. Why do you ask? I will tell you. Because you don't pay attention and when it is said it doesn't resonate with you. But, do yourself a favor and go back and reread, or just read. Stranger
