You can do that yourself and tell us how it goes.

Where did you get this number?

For a video talking for all black Americans, I only saw two actually saying this. I am curious what the racial make up of Kirks fan base is

Idk if I said it before but I will add that I don't think you can't have a day of rememberance for Confederate veterans, my argument is that they simply don't fall under the US Memorial Day. Now...

Ignoring NA's ramblings, I'm still waiting for BBQ's own doozie of a response.

I feel Catholics and Orthodox as well as Mormons, Jehovah's Witnesses and basically every Christian sect would disagree with you, just like how Sunni and Shia Muslims would disagree there's only one...

You would be different kinds of Christians. Do you believe Jehovahs Witnesses are the exact same kind of Christians as Catholics or Lutherans?

If they are part of a group that considers itself a separate entity and wages actual war against the United States, yes. Either way, these other groups also wouldn't fall under Memorial Day anyways,...

Your entire first argument is based on ignoring what it means when one says America and American. Both sides may be called Americans, but that doesn't mean the same for each side. An American in the...

which show told you that? There was a militia unit of about 1200 free blacks in New Orleans, but they never saw combat and only went on parade occasionally. A few thousand slaves were pressed into...

You are absolutely right that every American soldier should fall under Memorial Day. Confederate soldiers do not fall under that criteria.

Sorry, meant morally right and wrong. It doesn't matter if you or i agree with their motives, if what I meant to say.

Doesn't matter who the aggressor was (it was the South, though, who made the initial acts of aggression). I had ancestors who fought in the Civil War too, though mine was for the Union. This isn't...

Same thread, but a very different topic. That also isn't what I said in the first place. They don't fall under Memorial Day because they did not fight for the United States military. They fought in...

Where have I argued about what war is itself in relation to the origins of the Civil War's name? I'm being honest as this entire thread has become a jumbled mess.

You're now trying to argue the correct way to name wars, which is irrelevant to the conversation. It doesn't matter what you think a proper name is when the argument is about what people actually...

Well, I can't speak for your personal experiences, but multiple surveys and studies of literature over the years (newspaper articles, book titles, books from the era) show the term Civil War becoming...

I guess I don't see your point. Slavery in the USA never fell under that definition. It somewhat did in the very early colonial days (I think it was NA who brought up a man that was part of the...

that may be one of the longest stretches to accuse the left of something. Somebody should've told southern slaveholders that they were only allowed to keep willing people's and only keep them for 6...

@BBQ, yes that would clear it up a lot more, actually. @Buford, I literally said in the post you quoted that direct reparations aren't the answer.

and you didn't even answer the most basic question of what debt you were talking about.

You literally asked a question of me about whether or not African slaves were wrongfully captured, not if they were legally captured. At this point I don't even know what you are asking, then. Of...

I'll be honest this feels like a trick question but I'll answer honestly. There are little to no correct forms of slavery. Ancient European, Islamic, African and any other forms are all wrong even if...

Why would you care about the legal standards when they are not tied to religious standards? A lot of people would also argue that the African Slave Trade does NOT meet traditional Old Testament...

It's great that you enjoyed your experiences in life, that doesn't justify playing down the experiences of others that you didn't have. Just like my last post, I will point out that you knew who your...
