Fort Sumter wasn't theirs to give up. It was Federal property. If California decided to seccede today, should the USAF abandon Vandenberg? If Florida secceded, should NASA walk away from Cape Canaveral? If your state secceded and decided to union with mexico, should *you* abandon your home?

The reference was to slaves, an economic asset at the time.
