re: First Battle of Civil War was Battle of Blackjack b/t Missouri & Kansas Forces

when we moved here I never considered this to be a yankee state (MO)and for those that I know here(southern MO) They don't either. After following the rant for some time now it appears some things have never changed even after 150 years. There are still many yankee sypathisors in this state just as there have always been. Truth is there were such in many more confederate states as well but nobody seems to bring that up much. I am proud to be from the south weather you call it the south or not. And I love me some sec football. And if we ever have to go into battle with the rest of the union on the grid Iron I'm glad them missourians are on our side.
