they were fighting for the same things the Unions fight for today...exactly what they fight for today...and you and yours want to stop them.

They were also fighting for the same things Occupy was fighting for.

And yes the Civil War was a labor dispute to those in the South, but it was the North that saw it as a civil rights dispute...
