Please read this observation from the British...then stop you repeated ignorant use of the word "treason" (or answer the questions below which the North never did):

"Assuredly there is no disposition in this country to lean in favour of turmoil; but we cannot realize an act as that of rebellion or treason or piracy, simply because these names are applied to it. We are told that in the United States the people are sovereign. Here is an act committed by many millions of this sovereign people; against whom do they rebel? Can a sovereign, or a large portion of a sovereignty, be a rebel? In the usual meaning of our language rebellion is an act of the subject. Are, then, many millions of the sovereign people of the United States subjects, and to whom? Who is the monarch so supreme that in comparison even the sovereignty of the people may be termed a rebel? Is it the law? But where is the law? Assertions are not laws, nor yet ambitious theories, nor yet conceptions of advantage. Laws are enactments solemn, comprehensive, on known and legible record. Where, then, is the law which the States of the South have broken? And if in America the Government be merely an agent, then, as there exists no law that forbids the secession of a State, against whom or what do they rebel?"

This to me reads like the words of a socialist democrat. It claims that if they can garner the numbers for revolt then it must be moral to overturn the rule of law even though it is not moral.

The acts of the Confederate democrats were treason then and the acts of the Progressive democrats are treason today.

In both cases they want to justify a disregard for the Constitution and the rule of law.

In all of the years up until today from the Civil War onward the democrat party still disregards morality and the rule of law. They are traitors.

Do you not see that the mentality of your post is the same menatlity as the Marxist counter culture?

They as well said who should cast a rule of law on us. We will proclaim that freedom means rebellion. Rebellion against our parents, rebellion against the United States, rebellion against morality as well.

From the Confederate democrats up unto the Marxist counter culture and the democrat party Progressive movement there has always been the mentality that there is a natural right to rebel against God and the rule of law.

Rebellion against God and nature has been the hallmark of the democrat party from the days of the Confederates up unitl today and the Progressives.
