Thank God our founders had no such difficulty with the legality and moral obligation for seceding from a tyrannical government. Or we would still be slaves of Great Britain.

We're lucky no states saw fit to secede during any of the wars of the last century, as that would have made for a very ugly situation.

Imagine fighting at Iwo Jima or Normandy and hearing that some state back home had pulled out of the country and the war effort.

I find it interesting that Lincoln did say succession was lawful back in 1848 but then changed his mind when in power, thought we all knew he used slavery too as a political ploy to keep Europe out of the war and recognizing the confederacy.

Also what if a few states today said that is it for us we’re leaving the union. states like FL,SC,GA,TX,OK,AK,UT,LA,TN could all join and go it alone today quite easily and so what would DC do?
Send troops down here to kill again.

That would not go down too good for up north and lets face it parts of the north east is like going to another country compared to down here.

I find it interesting too that some up north will say traitors etc and yet those who fought the British were classed as traitors but because they won back then it means it was OK to leave but when you loose it is not.

All those saying we do not have a right to leave the union must also have the am view when a breakaway area wants to leave Russia or another country then. So the next time we hear there is no right then I take it those other areas have no right either because of say Russias constitution.
