Hmm.... here is a privately owned bar that is being criticized for its decorations
it is not on Campus and these folks will probably be harassed by liberals for offending someone who has no desire at all to enter this theme bar. But, they will fill justified to complain about it. Folks Your in the South, what ? type of theme do you expect of a southern Bar ? When I was a kid when someone mentioned Gen Sherman's name it was followed by quickly spitting the bad taste out of ones mouth
for what the General did to Georgia from Atlanta to Savannah. And Sherman believed all "Southerners" Young and Old, women and children,and black or white were legal targets also.While marching through North Georgia, General Sherman issued orders to..."burn ten or twelve houses of known secessionists, kill a few at random and let them know it will be repeated every time a train is fired upon from Resaca to Kingston..."
General Sherman explained this policy in a letter to Secretary of War Edwin M. Stanton: "Our armies traverse the land and waves of disaffection, sedition and crime close in behind and our track disappears. But one thing is certain, there is a class of people, men, women, and children who must be killed or banished before we can hope for peace and order even as far South as Tennessee.". In his report of the march to the sea, General Sherman declared that he had destroyed the railroads for more than 100 miles, and had consumed the corn and fodder in the region of country 30 miles on either side of a line from Atlanta to Savannah, as also the sweet potatoes, cattle, hogs, sheep and poultry, and carried away more than 10,000 horses and mules, as well as a countless number of slaves. "I estimate the damage done to the State of Georgia and its military resources at $100,000,000; at least $20,000,000 of which has inured to our advantage, and the remainder is simply waste and destruction." After admitting that "this may seem a hard species of warfare," he comforted himself with the reflection that it brought the sad realities of war home to those who supported it. Thus condoning all the outrages committed by an unrestrained army, he further reported that his men were "a little loose in foraging, and did some things they ought not to have done."
Looks like the next time I head up to Athens I will have to ck out the place
