There was no non-trivial secession efforts in NY. I have repeatedly stated there was no “tyranny” justifying ANY secession efforts. I am a old man and can be expected to forget things but you must be older than I am.

I mocked the whole idea.

You said: “I mocked the whole idea.”

It's obvious you thought you did, but you were showing your ignorance.

I note that you still do not know what I am talking about. There was a massive meeting in New York designed to develop and organize the secession of parts of the area into a “free trade” area and to align with the South. It was done in anticipation of the secession and the implementation of the Morrill tariff.

So, was this the result of tyranny?

Do some research and get back to me.
