You do know and comprehend the difference between the who and the what and the where, do you not?

The causality, the causation ... the relation to the actual event and the effect, do you not?

Civil Wars rarely begin when the first shots are fired or the first blood is drawn ... they begin long before.

Civil Wars are often necessary ... it sometimes takes a mess to fix a mess, one way or the other.

Yeah, we're proud to claim the first shots here in SC. We may actually fire the first shots of the second one as well.

No, please teach me about the Civil War, master.

When you're done, go read the OP, wherein he claims they "lit the powder keg." Better yet, read the part of my post you didn't quote.

Killz is extremely clever with his Civil War distraction thread.

While the rest of us fans are nervously waiting the rematch of the Gamecocks and the Tigers. Should be a very good game.
