When the "Righteous Causers" (RC) bring up the Secession statements and that they read them all and "RC" says it was about slavery, that's your 1st clue they are lying.
Ask them about the Corwin Amendment. 99% of "RC" have no idea what it was.
More likely they will dismiss it as nothing but it's huge blow to their myth.
Bring up the fact that WV was admitted (illegally) as a slave state. Remind them that NJ, DE, MD had slavery during the War of Northern Agression. Remind them that slavery was still allowed in Union territories. See John Fremont and how he was reprimanded by Lincoln.
If they bring up Sherman or Sheridan, make it a point to expose their thoughts about Natives. Point out the Psychotic Sherman and how he loved Genocide.
As an added bonus if they call us "losers" point out the Native American losers, the failure of the D.C. Imperialism in the last 70+ years, the crumbling of the Lincolnian society, and the corruption of Politics.

And Kentucky.
Follow @NBForrest83 for history lessons.
When the "RC" speaks of slave ships point them to the Northern Shipbuilders, the Banks, and Insurers that funded that industry.
The book Complicity: How the North Profited from the Slave Trade will enlighten them.
