I'm still waiting for a response from you as to why you think a secession movement would be unjustified.

We have a precendent for not allowing secession. So even if it were justified, it's not to be allowed.

Should the American Revolution have been allowed? If yes, then why that revolution and not secession? You still have not answered the question. You apparently have not thought this through very carefully.

If you are suggesting revolution, that is one thing, if you are suggesting secession it's another. Which is it? They are profoundly different.

Wrong. In the American Revolution the colonies DID secede from the British crown. Nice try, but you need to think this issue through more carefully before responding. Again, why was the Revolution justified?

I will only respond with the same question to any more of your posts since it is the heart of the issue and you refuse to think it through and at least offer a difference.

I've answered your questions. That you don't think I did is interesting. Besides being an accomplished citizen, and patriot, I'd have thought your well-honed debating skills would have led you to the conclusion that your questions had already been fully answered - and that we disagree.

I don't think you should waste any more time with me. I hope they sentence you to community service, say, cleaning latrines at Ft. Sumter or something - maybe then, on your breaks, you'd gain some appreciation for the country that God gave us.
