King's blog http://archive.thecitizen.com/blog/5908 en The North Was And Is More Violent And Racist Than The South http://archive.thecitizen.com/node/10869 <p>I never said the South was perfect. However the North was and is, in many ways, more racist than the South past or present. In 1741 New York burned blacks at the stake because they feared a slave rebellion. New York had the highest per capita number of slaves in America second only to Charleston South Carolina. Wall Street in New York City was built with slave labor. Northern states had "Black Laws" that prohibited blacks from moving into the state. This included Abraham Lincoln's state of Illinois. In 1863 New York City had draft riots and hung free blacks from the light poles in the city. The white residents did not want blacks to get their jobs while they were in the Union army. They even burned the black childrens orphanage. Even today the North is far more racist than the South. Jessee Jackson even admitted that blacks murder more blacks in one year than occured in 200 years of lynchings in the South. The Yankees hide it with their hypocrisy and the news media does not publicize it. The media hypes any incident that happens in the South and remains silent on incidents that happen in the North.</p> Tue, 10 Oct 2006 01:41:03 -0400 The Yankee Problem In America http://archive.thecitizen.com/node/10867 <p>The Yankee Problem in America<br /> Since the 2000 presidential election, much attention has been paid to a map showing the sharp geographical division between the two candidates’ support. Gore prevailed in the power- and plunder-seeking Deep North (Northeast, Upper Midwest, Pacific Coast) and Bush in the regions inhabited by productive and decent Americans. There is nothing new about this. Historically speaking, it is just one more manifestation of the Yankee problem.</p> Mon, 09 Oct 2006 22:32:01 -0400 President Eisenhower Letter-Honor Robert E.

Nations must evolve to survive. However the problem is they always evolve too much. All change is not for the better. World history records the death of every former empire. Nations evolve to the point that they stray from the foundations that they were built upon and decline until they cease to exist. America has evolved too far and is following the same path to destruction that the Roman empire followed 2000 years ago. The only anomaly is the South's fight during 1861-1865 to retain Constitutional Government. The Confederate States of America fell battling under the banner of "States Rights". Confederate principles are 1. Limited Constitutional Federal Government 2. States Rights 3. Christian-Judaic values. Excess immigration (excess numbers of slaves) and destruction of family values destroyed the Roman Empire and immigration (illegal and excess legal) and destruction of family values are destroying the American Empire. Wal-Mart's recent decision to join and support homosexuals as part of their diversity program underscores the decline of family values. They refuse to adopt Confederate principles and values as part of that diversity program.</p> Mon, 09 Oct 2006 11:03:53 -0400 Causes of Civil War by Capt. Semmes Ship CSS Alabama http://archive.thecitizen.com/node/10858 <p>Keep in mind that the discussion below occurs during the war, August 5th, 1861, between Semmes and a Captain Hillyar, of the British vessel “Cadmus”. It is as good a summary as I’ve seen from a well-educated Southerner of the period who is stating his reasons for fighting.</p> Mon, 09 Oct 2006 10:55:52 -0400 10 Causes Of The Civil War http://archive.thecitizen.com/node/10857 <p>THE 10 CAUSES OF THE WAR BETWEEN THE STATES<br /> Historians have long debated the causes of the war and the Southern perspective differs greatly from the Northern perspective.

In analytical science and weights and measures, comparisons are made against known standards. However, in politics comparisons are never made in a fair and impartial manner.</p> Mon, 09 Oct 2006 10:43:26 -0400
