Player #12643099, they still aren't opposed to "slavery", it's just modified as "government dependents"

Gator, Vallandingham's home still stands in Lisbon, Ohio....the second oldest town on Ohio.

great info..let's hope it doesn't get censured or 'evolve' like so many 'definitions' on Wikipedia, which are only a collection of opinions..anyone can contribute so the meaning can change drastically..🤔😬

Vallandigham was court-martialed for his views. His prison sentence was commuted by Lincoln to banishment (or exile) to the Confederacy.

Looks like player Olivia and Player #12643099 are tied for "most ignorant player of the year"!

Doesn't that draw parallels...
On a tangent, strange that the article never mentions "slavery!"

Several hundred copperheads were arrested with zero due process in the state of Maryland during the war, little was done about it or protested by the “free” press

I recently watched a movie titled Cooperhead . I found it quite informative, and well acting for a period piece.

As big a history buff I am, did not know this. Democrat snakes. That's even more descriptive today!

Democrats are opposed to everything except socialism and now apparantly slavery.
