You said you'd explain why you disagreed but didn't.

“”Domestic insurrections” could refer to Tory activities as well as slave uprisings.”
But it didn’t.
Thomas Jefferson called Tory insurrections “treasonable insurrections.”
Then Congress “struck out” the reference altogether. Look it up.
As a friend, I encourage you not to start a new year tethered to your losing argument from last year. Just let it go quietly and slip out the back door.
Taking Thomas Jefferson at his word on this matter does not mean you can’t continue to defend Lincoln’s War which killed over 600,000 people and stood the Declaration of Independence on its head.
