Y’all remember this when a bunch of families are mourning publicly because the mother dies because of ectopic pregnancies.
Apparently america was great in 1864, in that halcyon third year of the civil war. Who knew these idiots wearing these hats were asking for cholera, starvation, and losing to the north.
Aren’t they the ones responsible for it in the first place?
