Clearly people have the right of secession. It's called moving to a different state or country.

Or FORMING a different state or country by secession!

"Or FORMING a different state or country by secession!"

Article IV section 3:

"New States may be admitted by the Congress into this Union; but no new States shall be formed or erected within the Jurisdiction of any other State; nor any State be formed by the Junction of two or more States, or parts of States, without the Consent of the Legislatures of the States concerned as well as of the Congress."
