No, the South didn't have a right to leave.

You have to show just cause for doing so.

You don't have to show any "Cause" to leave. The idea itself is ridiculous. What sort of "Cause" is going to convince your oppressors that they should let you go?

When the colonists showed their list of grievances to the King, he simply ignored them. He obviously didn't agree that any of them were sufficient to allow them to leave. Showing "Cause" is pointless when someone doesn't want you to leave. No "Cause" that you show, will every be sufficient in the minds of your oppressors.

Are you a F***ing idiot or something? Tell me what "Cause" a wife can show to an abusive husband that will make him say, "Oh well then, since you've proven i'm not fit to be your husband, I guess i'll just let you go." What he will do is beat her for daring to suggest she had a right to leave him.

Once again, are you a F***ing idiot?

NO "CAUSE" WILL BE ACCEPTED AS GOOD ENOUGH TO SATISFY THE OPPRESSORS. The very idea that your oppressors should get to decide whether your reasons for wanting to leave them are good enough is nonsensical.

Humans have a Natural Law right to leave. You obviously see this NATURAL LAW right in the case of slaves, yet you are utterly blind to the exact same concept as applied to the Southern States.

Now, stop posting your idiotic nonsense to me.:

Why should I? You have to show CAUSE, why I should let you go!

Show Cause! Show Cause! Show Cause!

Don't be a hypocrite. You can't leave until you show cause why I should let you leave! Show Cause! Show Cause!

I can already tell you that none of your reasons will be accepted by me, but since you insist that "Cause" must justify me letting you go, I demand you SHOW CAUSE!

Stop trying to use your NATURAL LAW right to leave. Your position is that there is no such natural right, so therefore you must stay and put up with me.

Clearly you have never read the Declaration of Independence where a just cause is laid out for the American Revolution by Thomas Jefferson!

And the South had no just cause to leave.

They didn't like losing an election so they thought they could divide the Union over it.

That is anarchy and has nothing to do with natural law, which they themselves rejected!

So, the one who is an IDIOT is you.
