So you ignore the part where I agree with the statues being taken down and the clamping down on the groups?
I would be completely fine with making the flag and the groups illegal.
"In 1861 the Confederate Provisional Congress passed a number of laws to create a national army. By the end of the year upwards of 200,000 men were under arms and the volunteer and militia systems provided the bare minimum of men needed to defend a large country. But by the beginning of 1862 it became obvious to members of the Confederacys political and military elites that once the terms of enlistment for the volunteers started to expire, and many men decided not to reenlist, the country would face a manpower shortage. Earlier legislation attempted to address this problem by offering liberal incentives to reenlist, but these incentives proved to be ineffective. In recognition of this problem, Jefferson Davis sent a message to the Confederate Congress on March 28, 1862 recommending the enactment of a system of conscription."
They couldn't even get enough men while offering incentives so they started to use conscription.
That doesn't mean that there weren't plenty of evil soldiers. Or plenty of evil Southerners after the war.
The nazi's had soldiers that would gleefully torture and murder people.
The Russians were the good guys in that war and yet some people feared being liberated by them. Because they would pillage their way through to Berlin caring little for the people they were liberating.
Can you clarify why jury nullification can't apply here?
