Well, George Washington helped lead an armed rebellion against George III. How do you feel about Washington?
Great question. And no Southerner would have made a statement like he made. The ability to secede from the Union was NOT a revolution, it was and still is a part of the Constitution. We, as citizens can rebel against a tyrannical government. The problem for the South was that the North beat them. There was never a settling of the concept of states seceding.
