idiotic secession

By your non-dismissive attitude, it appears that you seem very adept at making "friends", have you considered a move to Boston? It might befit you....

Have you ever read the 10th ammendment?

That statement makes no sense. Had Lee believed secession was illegal he would not have resigned his commission from the Army to fight for VA.
