“LOL. See Texas v. White.”

Oh, I am very aware of Texas v. White, and that was a ruling that came several years AFTER the War (it was handed down in 1869). Thus, it is wholly inapplicable to the events of 1860-1865, except as an after-the-fact opinion.

Amazingly, all Supreme Court opinions are after-the-fact. Do you really think the court should simply sit there and make pronouncements before any cases are brought?
