Ft Sumpter was no more federal property than Yellowstone park is the property of the NPS. such "federal land" belongs SOLELY to the STATES/CITIZENS & is ONLY "administered" by the feds.
once SECESSION was a FACT, Ft Sumter was ENEMY PROPERTY in a FOREIGN country,. (fyi, that's what you DYs are BLINDED about. the CSA was NO LONGER the USA.)
the STATE of SC/the CSA was well within their RIGHTS as citizens to attempt to remove FOREIGN TROOPS from their country, after they had requested than the USA remove them.
fyi, your post to the contrary is SILLY & NONSENSE. nothing more & nothing less than BILGE, too.

Then as such didn't it belong to ALL the states and ALL the citizens?

So we're back to you trying to justify theft by claiming it was enemy proprety. And I note you don't say 'foreign' property but 'enemy' property. Considering you believed the U.S. to be the South's enemy from the very beginning no wonder the South resorted to war.

How else were they going to steal the property unless they got the owners out of it?
