This dude was a brutal war criminal who murdered and burned innocent towns, farms, women, and children. He gave weapons to blacks to try and start a race war, but the slaves refused because they loved their masters. They considered their white masters like family to them. His soldiers destroyed the Southern economy and railroads by tearing up railroads and tying them around trees. They burnt bridges and killed livestock, as well as destroying crops. His soldiers were also known rapists and were called Hell-Hounds for a reason.

IMHO, he was up there with Stalin and Mao. In the South (amongst good conservative folks), he is still infamous for being a genocidal war criminal and people will be offended if you mention him. Don't compare his atrocities with the current situation. His actions were entirely unnecessary and did nothing to end the Civil War sooner, contrary to popular narrative. It was just brutal torment and prolongation of their suffering.

You should seriously question a man who does this to his fellow Americans, innocent civilians no less.

I understand why we had to burn Atlanta to the ground 160 years ago now.

Damned yankees that moved to Atlanta ruined Atlanta. Well, that and the MASSIVE corruption since at least Mayor Maynard Jackson's era.

What a disgusting piece of shit this evil murderer was. He was a war criminal and anyone from the north that praises him has no idea of true history of this era.
