A republic held together at the point of a gun isn't much of a republic.
How is it a state right to be allowed to succeed(sic) from the Union?
The USC is totally silent on secession. If you read what was written at the time, any no out clause for the states would have made the USC DOA, and would have never been ratified by the states. There are some misguided fools around here that would argue the opposite is true, I am not buying though.
The Civil War was never about states rights, it was about a rebellion trying to keep slavery!
Secession is not an act of war, only a fascist war pig and statist piece of crap jerkface would think that way. Not that you would think like that :)
