Someone *MADE* it into a force of arms, and that someone was Abraham Lincoln who would not let them go in peace.
They tried to leave peaceably, but Lincoln would have none of it, because his government and it's corrupt deep state influencers and wealthy power brokers would be deprived of the income to which they had become accustomed.

Our fight today is the same fight the Southerners had in 1860. It is a fight against a corrupt and powerful oligarchy mostly located in the North East, and through who's pockets flows trillions of dollars of government money collected from the rest of us.
We have a pretend Democracy. Wealthy Liberal billionaires and influence peddlers in New York and Washington DC mostly control the makeup of our government, and they influence it to serve their best interests, and not those of the people of America.
