    So long story short… essentially the right they wanted to have was the right to enslave people. Dress it up all you want but a rose by any other name is still a rose.

      No. The states and the Feds all agreed on their right to own slaves and nothing was going to interfere with that “right”.

      It’s not dressing it up. It makes everyone look worse…

        Then why did the confederates specifically say it was about slavery when they surrendered?
