Thanks for confirming my point that he did own slaves and correcting my error.  Regardless of whether he whipped the snot out of his slaves every night or tucked them into bed with milk and cookies, the best one can say about old Stonewall, and Lee, for that matter, is that they were not opposed to slavery due to their both having control of slaves.

The southern revisionists always like to say Lee and Jackson opposed slavery and even cite their words as "evidence."   However, their actions, regarding slaves, speak louder, however "nice" they were to said "property."
