“If there was any constitutional issue resolved by the Civil War, it is that there is no right to secede.”

No wonder our court is a joke. Wars do not answer constitutional questions. They only answer “Might is Right”. The Civil War did not answer if a State could suceed, and, in fact, answered that it could.

ITA. Let's say a state does decide to secede. There are steps that will happen before any force is involved. And I don't think Americans will accept the federal government moving troops on its own citizens. Of course, that could also cause other states to join in.

Its a very precarious thing.

But if a state did decide, there really isn't much the federal government could do to stop it.
