Southern reason for secession: States rights.

Sure. What state's right was being denied?

northern reason for initiating hostilities: Politics.

The North did not initiate hostilities, the South did.

Up till now, the South has never started a war...

Other than 1861.

...but we've shown that we won't back down, even in the face of overwhelming odds. We're still like that, so, tread lightly.

Sure. The South gonna rise again. Someday. Maybe. Sooner or later.

Like I've told you before, you yankees should be thanking us for remaining in the union, otherwise, the north would be flying the Hammer & Sickle.

ROTFLMAO!!!! You protected us from the commies but still gave us Clinton and Carter and LBJ. Thanks a lot.

Born in the red states, elected by the blue states.

Undeniable.
