4 widows made it to year 2,000. I can’t find data about 1990 but that’s like what 7 women?

The war ended in 1865? How are there any Confederate widows in 1990?

I’m not in any way trying to defend Mississippi on any level, but imagine being an old woman in a cohort of less than 50 and having a whole fucking state vote to take away your income. What a shitty indefensible position to be in. Last confederate war widow dies on the streets of Biloxi, is kind of a wild headline, while perhaps satisfying, is kind of ghoulish.

Lol there’s no way that the ballot measure didn’t cost more to propose, approve, print, count, and legislate that the vale of those remaining pensions
Seems kinda late for that kind of ruling, but I also am conflicted on the idea of Confederates getting any kind of military pensions or benefits regardless.

They could pay pensions to veterans and their widows but no reparations for the slaves.
