I've never violently violated the Constitution. What are you talking about?
I never said you did. I said that there are people who agree with you and are willing to violate the Constitution to achieve their agendas. If one does not like a provision of the Constitution, the choices are either (1) work to change it within the bounds of the constitution, or (2) subvert the constitution. The majority of northerners chose the latter. Regardless of the issue which led northerners to abandon the Constitution, those who opposed them deserve our respect and thanks. Those who gave up on democracy and the Constitution deserve the sympathy and disapproval of citizens of a republic, or the quaking submission of subjects of an empire. Depends on how one views oneself.
