The Firing on Fort Sumter

I knew this day would come since the election of President Lincoln and so close to the celebration of the resurrection of our Lord. This is not my war to fight but I strongly support the Northern regiments in their struggle against the Confederate States of America. Our Founding Fathers did not intend for a divided nation. They "did not vote themselves into a people; they recognized and declared that they were a people" whose bonds could not be destroyed by political, social, or economic grievances. God Bless America and be with those families who have lost loved ones at Fort Sumter.

  1. Indeed, "united we stand, divided we fall". Let us hope the South soon sees the error in its decision to secede from the Union.
