No Wreath This Year?

Confederate Monument In Arlington National Cemetery

Apparently two guys (whose names I have forgotten) wrote a letter to the current U.S. President Barack Obama wanting him to NOT send a wreath to the Confederate monument at Arlington.It has been done every year since Woodrow Wilson was president. I would like to say that as president he should honor all soldiers from all wars that have died fighting on U.S. Soil. I would Like to say that if the U.S. doesn't want to honor the Confederate soldiers, then the U.S. Government needs to give all of the land C.S. soldiers are buried on back to the former Confederacy.In my mind Not sending a wreath would be Discrimination and Discrimination should NEVER be tolerated. Sending a Wreath Will help the nation and in NO way can it hurt....if you agree with that or not feel free to speak your mind because I won't delete your comment unless it is extremely inappropriate.

Symbol of slavery and inequality

Many people wrongly believe that the union fought to abolish slavery.However the union still allowed slavery in the border states during the War for southern independence.If the Union fought to free slaves then why didn't the Emancipation proclomation free any slaves? Why were slaves (in the NORTH and south not get freed until after the war between the states.Did you Know that THE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES REPRESENTED A NATION THAT ALLOWED SLAVERY FOR ALMOST 200 YEARS? I believe that the Union flag represents Slavery and Tyranny.What do you think?

Artillery

Union artillery superiority was often times matched by excellent positions held by Confederate gunners.Had the union artillerists held beter or equal positions would Confederate artillery have been decimated or could they have held their ground,also did the types of projectiles and their use apply to their successes or downfalls?
