No, no, no, no. Are you just a troll? Those soldiers didn't fight for slavery because they didn't own any slaves. Very few people in the South did. They were fighting for something else, but not for slavery. That's a myth. From their perspective, it was a 'moral war' to defend their homeland from a foreign invasion and defend their rights. One can deny that these people were 'right' in their thinking. What one can't do is deny what they thought.
