Teen sues over Confederate flag prom dress

LEXINGTON, Kentucky (AP) -- A teenager is suing her school district for
barring her from the prom last spring because she was wearing a dress
styled as a large Confederate battle flag.

Harry, we in the south fought the war of "states rights" not for the right
to have slavery but against special interest that wanted a larger share of
the world market in Cotton Goods (cloth). The export tariff on raw cotton
killed the agrarian economy of the south. The first shot of the war was
against a fort enforcing the tariff.

Lincoln was trying to institute Federal policies that would have eliminated
slavery SLOWLY. Paying for some to be repatriated to Africa and the rest
given land as reparations for being forced into slavery. Much like the
Union soldiers got as a mustering out. He was outvoted in Congress and the
special interests forced a war on this country.

After the war (as a popular president) he had plans to follow thru on his
vision and was killed some say by other special interests who saw an
opportunity to rape the South. In many cases the "Plantations" in the south
were broken up into smaller plots and given to the slaves. You will find in
researching the ownership of surviving "Plantations" that most were picked
up by people or corporations from the north.

True or not that is the prevailing opinion here in the south.

While in the North (N.Y. State) I listened to news reports of a newly
discovered Cemetery where multiple thousands of black children and adults
were found in mass graves. Speculation was that they were from the
"Industrial era" just after the Civil War where blacks including children
were worked to death in factories and buried in mass graves (The Northern
answer to slavery).

While there is enough guilt to go around for both the North and the South,
on neither side did the PEOPLE fight the War for the reasons attributed to
them. The North fought to free the Slaves and the South fought against an
overbearing government that wanted to destroy the economy of the south.
