The Civil War almost began in 1832 when Jackson sent ships enforce the unfair tariffs in South Carolina.
A good case can be made that the war was in fact a war of aggression.
BTW, one of the selling points to get the constitution ratified was that states could withdraw from the union.
Are you suggesting the Founding Fathers lied?
