'Secessions' only existence is in the minds of those who oppose our Constitutional principles.
Those principles can be applied to the Federal government, by the States, to force the feds to comply, or vice versa.


The people have never authorized any level of government the power to violate our Constitution, nor to secede.

I would have liked to see you explain that one to Southerners in 1861....I bet you would have taken a long fall at the end of a very short rope........

Yep, that's what lynch mobs do.. They hang men for defending Constitutional principles of life/liberty/property.
It's exactly why why had to fight a war to settle the question of 'states rights' over individual rights. - Mob rule over the rule of Constitutional law.

No....they hang traitors to their home, and state.
Your first loyalty should be to your STATE, then so on....

Show me in the Constitution where secession is FORBIDDEN....
