Here is what Chase wrote in the Texas decision; “The Union of the States never was a purely artificial and arbitrary relation. It began among the Colonies, and grew out of common origin, mutual sympathies, kindred principles, similar interests, and geographical relations. It was confirmed and strengthened by the necessities of war, and received definite form and character and sanction from the Articles of Confederation. By these, the Union was solemnly declared to “be perpetual.” And when these Articles were found to be inadequate to the exigencies of the country, the Constitution was ordained “to form a more perfect Union.” It is difficult to convey the idea of indissoluble unity more clearly than by these words. What can be indissoluble if a perpetual Union, made more perfect, is not?[7]
After "four score and seven years", it is more indissoluble than the over thousand year old British Crown?
From the natural law rights which allowed us to throw off allegiance to the Millennial old British Monarchy, a government of only 87 years should more than meet it's match.
Words on paper written by men should not override natural rights given by God. In 1776, they didn't.
“Here is what Chase wrote in the Texas decision: “The Union . . . and our side won. And I’m not going to let anyone take back in court what we won on the battlefield. So there!” “
Victor’s justice.
