If you were right, you could quote the article, section, and clause of the US Constitution that prohibited State secession. Because you can't, you (and supposedly "others ;>) are obviously wrong.
;>)
To usurp power in order to violate the rights of every United States citizen is treason and that is what the confederate democrats did.
In fact, there was no 'usurpation' of powers involved - as the Tenth Amendment makes plain:
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
Because the Constitution nowhere prohibited State secession, that right was reserved to the States and their people.
In other words, you're wrong again.

Traitors then and still traitors today is the democrat party.
Wrong again. In the mid-1800's, the Democratic Party was the conservative party; the Republican Party was not. Although the names have remained the same, the political philosophies have reversed.
"Learn to read you moron."

Of course the left-wing libertarians join hand in hand still with Marxist traitors on issues today.
And you're wrong yet again. More often than not, in my experience, libertarians side with modern-day Republicans, not D@mocrats.
"Learn to read you moron."

I am glad though that you admit that secession is illegal today.
Then you contradict yourself - you had previously stated that you "hope that you and your fellow traitors try to unilaterally secede from the United States again." Gosh - were you encouraging treason? Not very patriotic of you...
;>)
It was illegal then as well.
And wrong again - care to quote the article, section, and clause of the US Constitution that prohibited State secession? Of course not, simply because it didn't exist...
;>)
But at least you are not claiming as another poster did in this thread that secession is still legal today.
Actually, you're wrong again. State secession would be entirely constitutional today, under certain circumstances.
"Learn to read you moron."

Again the only argument you have is to completely deny what has already been proven to you. The Tenth Amendment prohibits secession as it states clearly that it is powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution that are reserved to the States. Article II clearly delegates the power of Commander-in-Chief to the United States executive branch and the States had no legal power to assume it in rebellion against the United States as they did.
To deny this as you do and support treason is not a conservative principle at all. The democrats were treasonous then and still are now. That includes libertarian democrats who try to act as if they are conservatives but really are not. The libertarian movement continually sides with the most extreme left-wing Marxists. The libertarian party was even formed in order to join side by side with the Marxist anti-war, and anti-American movement of the counter-culture.
Secession is just another of the anti-American left-wing stances that libertarians take. The left-wing love libertarian useful idiots that take the stance that you do.
