Show us where the Constitution forbids secession.

Everywhere.

"Whoever considers, in a combined and comprehensive view, the general texture of the constitution, wil be satisfied that the people of the United States intended to form themselves into a nation for national purposes. They instituted, for such purposes, a national government complete in all its parts, with powers legislative, executive and judiiciary, ad in all those powers extending over the whole nation."

- Justice James Wilson, Chisholm v. Georgia, 1793
