Well, the Proclamation was about creating chaos deep in the South. Lincoln was attempting to disrupt the war-making ability of the South by encouraging internal rebellion by the 'freed' slaves. This would require Confederate troops to return home for local control thus bleeding troops from the front.

Remember, not all slaves were freed; only those in States in rebellion.

In my mind, the Civil War was fought over whether or not this country will have a Federal Government so powerful it could militarily compel States to not only comply with Federal regulations, but be unable to leave the Republic as well.

You decide who won, the government, or the people.

Carry on.
This is true, but at that point wasn't slavery also illegal in the Union states?

actually no, many northern states had abolished the trade but current slaves in several of these states were "grandfathered in" until the 13th amendment was ratified in 1865.

I'll bet they have dozens of gun books on the shelves, maybe gun magazines, too, so it isn't about guns.

i suspect they have a commercial filtering program that is also sold to schools.

Sadly no. I work at a school district and as of yet have not been blocked by our internet filtering for anything firearm related.

The your district may very well be in violation of federal law.

Nope. The only thing we are required to try and block is pornography.

Some find Pornography disgusting and some find the leftist views being taught in schools today equally offensive.

Can't filter those, can we?

Wish I could just to hear the screaming :lol:
