Seems like I've read the opposite of this. Missouri sent around 40,000 men to fight for the South, but 100,000 to fight for the North.

Not saying you're wrong, just that I remember it differently.

I like Mizzou in the SEC. Stop bashing Southerners. I’ve traveled all over Missouri, you have no leg to stand on. We are more alike than different.

Southerns are normal people. Just assimilate with us.

Missouri was flooded with German immigrants in the 1830's to a region just east of St. Louis. This area was specifically settled to mirror the Rhineland region of Germany....many of these Germans were considered to be the "enlightened" class. This German region bordered the south eastern edge of the Little Dixie region of Missouri. Little Dixie ran from Kansas City east straddling the Missouri River across the state all the way to Mississippi just north of St Louis. When the Civil War broke out the Union sent additional German immigrants into Missouri to push the southern sympathizers/Confederates out of the state, it was strictly a numbers game and the critical number was too many damn Germans. After the war the Germans displaced some of the original homesteaders (hemp plantations) increasing the Rhineland region farther west along the Missouri River.

It's cool you like Mizzou in the SEC, the problem is, your brethren doesn't want to assimilate with us.

There is nothing Mizzou brings to the table that makes up for it being a SJW prog school that no one wants.

Its very clear that Missouri has been a net positive for the SEC. Missouri has brought money and culture to a vapid black hole of trailer park poverty and a paint by number sense of propriety.

You're welcome.


Thank you for all the crystal meth.
