My ancestor served under Sherman. He was in Atlanta when it burned.
Any family notes, journals, memories passed down?


He wrote a journal in his later years. He started with a lot of gusto and wrote a lot about the first few years in Tennessee and Corinth, MS. He petered out towards the end and glossed over the Atlanta campaign and March To The Sea. Sherman's army (and his regiment) paraded down Washington DC before going home but he doesn't even mention it. I do love that journal and have read it many times. When I retire I plan to road trip his path. He came close to death at Parker's Crossroads and if he had you all wouldn't have dajo9 to kick around.

No photo but he wrote about a guy who was executed by firing squad for going awol and then fighting with Confederates. There are pictures of that scene on the interwebs. Cool to know he was there (for me at least).

Funny - you are currently hooked as much on Razing the South as I am on Razing Mar a Lago.
But, hey, that's in the South, too, right?

Good article on all the idiots being arrested.

Psychologists have long observed how individuals in frenzied crowds seem to lose their sense of individual responsibility and become willing to engage in anti-social behavior they'd never contemplate on their own.


https://www.yahoo.com/news/capitol-riot-suspects-apologize-consequences-100425147.html

a judge who denied Chansley's bid to be released from jail had questioned whether the Arizona man was still under Trump's spell, pointing out Chansley said in a CBS "60 Minutes+" interview that he didn't regret his loyalty to Trump.

Police officers sue Donald Trump for injuries resulting from Capitol riot


https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/mar/31/police-officers-sue-donald-trump-injuries-capitol-riot?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other


Tough civil case for tRump. The standard of proof is less and unanimous jury verdict not required. Add to that the fact he cannot afford to have his deposition taken because it can be used in any criminal case. He is basically f'd. He will have to use campaign contributions to settle it.

Breaking: Trump's current position that the election was a fraud directly caused someone to ram into two cops outside the Capitol with their car. Florida man arrested.

With regard to the attacker, it looks like someone just saved the taxpayers a lot of money.

As usual, Republicans have been proven wrong. Clearly, security at the Capitol needs to remain beefed up.

No matter.
Henceforth, all violence will be assigned to Trump and Fox.
(precisely as they assign all violence to radical BLM Antifa protestors.)

Oh, so you're telling me that we can raid the capitol so long as it's not with guns???









Oh, but wait... what about the storming of the Michigan capitol?
Plenty of guns there:




How bad does it need to get before you.... Oh, never mind. You're name is Anarchy - you're just waiting for it.

A little 60's.
A little psychodelics.
A little old age conservatism.
A little nostalgia.
Maybe that's the recipe?

If the black extremist had a MAGA hat in his car, would that make you feel better?

MSNBC had a really good recap of what happened at the January 6 insurrection on Sunday night. Highly recommend if you can watch it.

It's more fun watching Republicans turning on each other. It makes it that much harder for the GOP to get control of legislative bodies.

I believe there should have been audits with signature verification. There was no reason not to do them. Unprecedented amounts of mail in votes should have made that mandatory.

I mean you're already pals with ex-heads of CIA and FBI, add the progeny of dick cheney's tumor to your party. There's no turning on each other, Cheney has been censured in Wyoming already and by months end will be stripped of her committee assignment.

Kevin McCarthy, yet another Republican that has "mediocre man" etched on his face and in his words like Jim Jordan, Mitch McConnell, Rand Paul, Ron Johnson, Devin Nunes and Louisiana's own, John Kennedy. These are men, that if they approached you as salesmen in a used car lot, you would not trust doing business with them. These are men that you can envision interviewing for the job vacancy left by Jerry Falwell Jr.....and then getting into similar trouble if they were hired.

A true Cal fan NEVER calls another Cal fan a weenie. If you don't know why, then you suck as much as a Cal fan as you do as a patriot.

It's May 2021. Reminder that this couple is representative of a majority of Republicans -- and all the Republican posters in Off Topic, with maybe one exception.
