Holding a statewide election and voting to leave the existing government is not "rebellion." As the left will conflate Voter ID with "RACISM", so too will they pretend it is "rebellion" to separate from a nation founded on the right to separate.
That to secure these Rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the Consent of the Governed, that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these Ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its Foundation on such Principles, and organizing its Powers in such Form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
Sounds like "Rebellion" is holding people against their will.
Statewide elections? Don’t you mean commissions of wealthy plantation owners?
