Clara,

I find your thought patterns equally erratic. When the Native Americans 
repaid the colonists with emphatic retribution for their massacres and 
destruction of their lands and property, it is the right of the stronger. 
But, when the north exacted retribution for the treason of the south, it was 
indefensible. There is a lack of logic in your position. The south defended 
their beliefs in their "right" to consider human beings as "property", to 
the exclusion of the beliefs of the growing majority in the nation, that you 
all people have human rights, including the right to gain their own freedom 
from servitude.
