The Union Army, in specific,

The Union Army, in specific, the Sherman March to the sea and through South Carolina, should have been restrained. There were many excesses, like killing civilians, rapes and burning of public buildings and private homes.

The problem I see with this argument is people get on here and say dumb stuff, like the South wasn't fighting for slavery, when it was the top thing most of the southern states seceeded for. It makes our movement look silly.

I believe a total history of Lincoln should be taught, including his many racist comments. But we shouldn't do what the Lincoln did no wrong crowd does and not acknowledge he had an evolving opinion and favored voting rights for some African-Americans before his death and other things, which he didn't favor back then in some of the comments shown in the video.

I don't like biased history, rather it be this video or the Lincoln did no wrong crowd.
