I know facts rather than your revisionist history. I know the South had no plans to attack or invade the north. I know that the north claiming ownership of part of the harbor of a Southern state that had left the union was a direct provocation to force a war. South Carolina had every right to defend itself after it was no longer part of the United States. I know that slavery was NOT the determining factor for the secession because slavery in the South was legal and in no danger, in fact the north had offered an amendment to the Constitution enshrining it forever as legal. I know that the north invaded and laid waste to the South resulting in the deaths of 750,000 young men from both sides for financial reasons rather than moral, high-ground reasons, and then since that time has tried to continue the lie about wanting to free the slaves, etc. I know that the north spent another 12 years rubbing the South through the dirt in the name of “reconstruction”. Yea, those pure as snow northerners. I know all about them. Must be some of your ancestors for you to lie so much about them and what they really did. I know that.
You seem to know a lot of things. Some of them are partly true but most of them are not true at all.
You keep running on about SC legally seceding.
You are wrong:
The Preamble of the Constitution states, “We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union…” As a result, the Constitution was a direct creation of the body of people in the nation themselves.
Thus, the states have no prior claim, via the compact theory, to sit in judgment upon any federal acts.
Only the people themselves, through the federal government, may do so by voting any state out of the Union.
Each state in the confederacy asked the Federal Government to be admitted into the Union.
The Federal Government, afterwards then agreed, and states were admitted and became part of the Federal Government.
Only the Federal Government can undo itself.
The war that followed and all of its consequences are the responsibility of the confederacy, they caused it.
It is time for confederacy supporters to accept that they were wrong and that they lost. You are a part of the United States of America. Deal with it.
