He allowed them to secede in full accordance with the U.S. Constitution.

Regrettably, Lincoln had to invoke Article 1 Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution after they did so.

And I’m no fan of Lincoln.

The first shots were fired by the rebels, not the union

Declare war, open hostilities, and you get what you get,,,,,
