“I must attribute the discussion of it to a loss of education and lack of knowledge of history on all sides.”

You’ve got to be kiddin’ me turkey! Most of us have enough education to know that history is written by the victors, had the colonies not won the Revolution Wahington, Franklin, Jefferson and all the others we Revere would be considered traitors, likewise had the South won the, “War of Northern Aggression”, Jefferson Davis would have been a great hero and Lincoln would be listed as one of history’s great losers. It has naught to do with wrong and right but rather who has the might.
Nations have been forming and dissolving from the beginning of recorded time and they will likely continue to do so. I would prefer it not happen to America but if the alternative is a communist hellhole let it happen. I know what it is like to have only the very basic necessities of life and that plus freedom equals a vast fortune compared to having great material wealth without freedom or the hope of freedom. If we continue on the current trend we will become another Cuba but on a much more massive scale.
I am not only directing this reply to you there were lots of pro secessionist posts. Never in my life have I read such offensively idiotic rationalizations in my life. I don’t understand history because if the South had WON the civil war it would have been considered ok?? The Patriots were just the same as secessionists only the Patriots won? The country is now “communist” so IT seceded from US???
Sorry but you should all blow it out your rears. The argument about the revolutionary patriots is EXACTLY the argument the left uses to give moral equivalence to the terrorists.
There is one good solution for traitors and secessionists. You arrest them or kill them whichever is necessary. Anyone stupid enough to think they will “save” the United States by destroying the United States, has earned themselves a good hanging.
Forgive me but I thought it best if I tone down what I really think.
