Good to see the quality indoctrination taking place at our finest institutions of higher Ivy League learning.

Creating a Southern Atmosphere.   

Souf dum

muh history is a little hazy but I'm pretty sure Kentucky fought for the Union during the civil waaah.

[Beavis in KC]

Kentucky contributed significant numbers of troops to both sides.

I'm pretty sure their official sttate government stance was pro-unioin.

Maryland did the same thing.     In fact that's why Georgetown University's colors are gray and blue because that part of the country basically 1/2 left to fight for the Union,  the other for the confederacy.

Either way,  Kentucky hardly qualifies as "Deep South."    Freaking libtards.

The article in the OP says they were neutral during the war

Why haven't BLM protestors gone after Lady Antebellum concerts. They have Antebellum right in their name!!!!!

[testudo]

They started out neutral.  But it didn't end that way.   Like bavis said,    they fought for both sides.    The  point being,   if Dartmouth is going to put the kibash on the Kentucky Derby,   they need to do the same for the Preakness.

Union fielded about 75 official regiments to the Confederates about 10 infantry and a random assortment of various official/unofficial cavalry. 

Probably not terribly indicative though of where the balance of loyalties of the whole state lie as the amount of troops raised by the Union was much higher because they actually controlled the state for the vast majority of the war.
