The joke was that after the North told the Southern farmers to release their slaves & put them off their farms the blacks had no way to feed, cloth or care for their family's & no where to go, it's no wonder they had to turn to crime just to live, North never thought of that, then again they never really gave a shit about the slaves in the first place, political.

"Lee surrendered his Army of Northern Virginia on April 9, 1865, at the McLean House in the village of Appomattox Court House. In an untraditional gesture and as a sign of Grant's respect and anticipation of peacefully restoring Confederate states to the Union, Lee was permitted to keep his sword and his horse, Traveller.

On April 14, 1865, President Lincoln was shot by John Wilkes Booth, a Southern sympathizer. Lincoln died early the next morning, and Andrew Johnson became president. Meanwhile, Confederate forces across the South surrendered as news of Lee's surrender reached them. On June 23, 1865, Cherokee leader Stand Watie was the last Confederate general to surrender his forces."

*This is just a small number of photos available for the American Civil War. The focus of this thread was the soldiers that died. Non-gore pictures were intentionally left out for another thread.

Many have seen these photos, some maybe not, and I am sure that a few of them are here on GG somewhere but none are in a dedicated US Civil War thread. DH.

Love history of warfare and I truly believe the true horror of war should be shown to the masses as maybe then it'd stop some of it 🤔 maybe 😂... Great wee collage 👍💯 thank you

Ending slavery was an after thought as you said a "political" gimmick to give legitimacy to Lincolns war, the slaves were shit Aw over again after the war ended 🙄.... Politics n religion are evil lies !!!
