Re: 150th Anniversary

My point was not to diminish he efforts of recent immigrants. My point was to diminish the "more Americans Died" statistic. That's like saying in WWII, more people died in the world. Duh, because Both Allies and Axis were fighting.

At the time, the Confederates were not considered a Part of the USA, thus saying more Citizens of the USA died in the Civil War then in any other war combined is not a true statistic. In all actuality they were 2 nations at war.
