Even when Texas tells you why they did it, you reject it. They left BECAUSE THEY LOVED SLAVERY.

Right back at you. FlT-Bird posted further details on Texan's feelings on how the United States short changed them after they joined. Did you read it? They had more gripes than just Slavery, but you appear to be the sort that was only upset about states with slavery that were trying to get out of the US, and not terribly concerned with US slave states that were trying to remain.

You do know that Missouri, Kentucky, Maryland, Delaware and West Virginia were UNION slave states?

They left BECAUSE THEY LOVED SLAVERY.

And of course you are still missing the point that they could have had all the slavery they wanted just by staying in the USA.

You are just too brainwashed by 160 years of propaganda. You believe things that just don't make any sense, but it makes you feel good to believe them.

Even when Texas lays out multiple causes to you, you reject it. Texas left because the federal government failed to provide protection against the Comanche, because the federal government refused to secure the border, because the Northern states violated the fugitive slave clause of the Constitution, because the Northern states imposed economic policies which enriched themselves at the Southern states' expense, and because the Northern states refused to prosecute those who committed acts of terrorism against Southerners. They lay it out in their declaration of causes which I went through for you clause by clause last time.
