Good luck with that “secession” thing. Several of us tried
it in the 1800’s. Dead bodies (both Union & Rebel) lay
strewn all across the South. LINCOLN did WHATEVER IT TOOK
to keep our cotton-picking tax money in the union.

“Slavery” was on the way OUT anyway with the new inventions
that were in the offing. CALIFORNIA can go for my part in
it; but don’t try it while Emperor Obama is in power.

Secession talk sure brings out the chickenhawks.

The term (chickenhawk)indicates that the person in question is hypocritical for personally dodging a draft or otherwise shirking their duty to their country during a time of armed conflict while advocating that others do so. Generally, the implication is that chickenhawks lack the moral character to participate in war themselves, preferring to ask others to support, fight and perhaps die in an armed conflict.

Slavers clearly did not believe slavery was doomed quite the contrary since the clueless ruling class provoked a war which destroyed the region for nearly a century. Lincoln had done NOTHING to take away their slaves.
