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

No, Walt, that's one man's opinion, show the actual text of the bloody document where it forbids it.

Since James Wilson was beaten half to death for supporting the Constitution, -his- opinion has more value than -yours-.

His being a Justice on the Supreme Court also makes his opinion more valuable than yours.
