War doesn't decide who is right, just shows who is left.

Gettysburg is also one of the most haunted places in the world. 👻💀👀

Bex6942, actually I think Gettysburg had the most casualties over 3 days but Antietam was the bloodiest single day.

Sistien50, advice from our 16th President "Sometimes it is better to remain silent and appear a fool than to speak and remove no doubt"

Luanna3353, so sad. if we dont learn from history we are doomed to repeat it. history is history, not to be re written torn down, or ignored.

PEPPER 520, I have lived minutes away from the Chickumaga battlefield my whole life and it is also the most screwed up paranormal hotspots I've ever seen soliders walking down the "downtown" area I have no doubt Gettysburg is extremely haunted bit no one has ever investigated Chickumaga and they seriously need to check out green eyes and all the other stuff

Does this total also include civilian casualties? There was 1 women killed in Gettysburg, and the bullet holes are still in her home. I used to give tours there. Great place to go for visit, or move to.

It saddens me to know that to most people these casualties will only ever be viewed as numbers and nothing more. They were many men who died doing what they in their hearts felt was right and believed that God was on their side. War just breaks my heart period.

PEPPER 520, I visited Gettysburg and I had a tour of the land where the actual water place and all the killings. But I didn’t learn that although it makes sense. I wonder if we wouldn’t have experienced anything haunted during the day. I wonder if it’s more at night? Nah - that doesn’t make sense.

Sistien50, unfortunately it makes big corporations RICH. I don’t agree with that - just sharing what I was told.

I hate to say this but I believe we r going to find out that leaders who start wars are playing both sides because it's about money.

goingaltheway, It freed the enslaved in the North. War gives us nothing but death and misery.

God-is-AMAZING!, Yes. Unfortunately, in the eyes of white people (elites, AND the “lower” classes) Black people (slaves) were NOT classified as “people”.

MadGemini46914, I knew there was something significant about Antietam. For a minute I thought ‘Gettysburg’ was the wrong answer. But thanks to you, I know why I believed Antietam was the correct answer. Lol

Princess_Kitten, ...What breaks my heart 💙 and it sounds cold but is true, more people have been killed in the name of God (what ever that is to you, world over) than any other cause. What hurts my Vietnam ❤️, is the arm-chair warriors told us 😢 20 something year olds, the only way we know you're winning are body counts.!. However my Delta Force Company B tried to limit our kills to limited hills and hoped to win some of that limited ✌️ ☮️ 🕊 Peace...

sleepy Mama llama, we use to visit Civil War battle fields but i always end up crying so don't anymore. Such a sad waste of human life.

DPC, It started over not wanting to give our bank power back to Britain! Slavery was added the last year. I would like to think slavery was added for good reasons. And on the long run, it was. BUT for what I know about the US and my own Native heritage, I just doubt it. I think it was more about getting more bodies to fight on the Union side. That's what my grandpa always said that his dad said, and his dad said, etc. and I'm inclined to believe it. They still don't care. We are all equally cash cows now. Why is it you think we need a social security # for anyway?
