Confederates in North Dakota Earlier this summer, while on a road trip through the northwestern United States, I was tickled to see the Confederate Bar and Grill, proudly displaying the Confederate Battle Flag, in McClusky, North Dakota. Confederates, and Confederate sympathisers, are not confined to the Southern states. In my travels I've seen many other businesses and individuals proudly displaying the Confederate flag throughout the United States and even in many other countries of the world.

I would have enjoyed talking to the owner of the bar to hear the story of how the establishment got its name, but unfortunately it was early in the morning and the place was not yet open for the day.

Interestingly, McClusky is the county seat of Sheridan County, North Dakota, named for the notorious Yankee war criminal and Union General Philip Henry Sheridan. After the War Between the States was ended, and Sheridan couldn't slaughter any more innocent Southerners, he still had a sadistic, unquenchable lust for blood. He turned his attention from the Southern States and directed his sick fury against the Plains Indians, being credited with the saying, &quot;The only good Indian is a dead Indian.&quot; Sheridan had first gained notoriety by raping, robbing, and ransacking Virginia's beautiful Shenandoah Valley and its inhabitants Now he continued his infamy by committing genocide against Native Americans - most of whom, like the Confederates, only wanted to be left alone.

As a reward for his murderous deeds, all done in the name of &quot;defending&quot; the United States of America, Sheridan had several towns and counties named in his honor by the grateful European settlers who were only too eager to help steal the Indian's land from them - treaties be damned. The Indians that couldn't be killed were imprisoned in internment camps called &quot;reservations&quot; where many of their impoverished descendants live to this day. Since so many Indians from various tribes joined in the noble Confederate cause, it wouldn't surprise me to learn that a freedom loving Native American owns the Confederate Bar and Grill.
