Say a state allows for the legal murder of all left handed people. Plank #2 says the ‘pubs adhere to the Declaration, and I assume that most ‘pubs would think that left handed folks in this state are having their inalienable rights violated. Plank #4 says that whatever a state does is it’s own affair, no matter what, so nothing can be done for left handed folks in this state. Unless an invasion to help left handed folks wouldn’t be lawless because it’s purpose is to stop rights from being infringed?

You were doing fine until the last sentence,remember we are talking about the preservation of the Union,which was Lincolns sworn duty to uphold.

There was no invasion,or hint or invasion,in any of Lincolns speeches or comments that I can find.

I am loath to close,We are not enemies,but friends. We must not be enemies.Though passion may have strained,it must not break our bonds of affection.The mystic chords of memory,stretching from every battlefield,and patriot grave,to every living heart and hearthstone,all over this broad land,will yet swell the chorus of the Union,when again touched,as surely they will be,by the better angels of our nature.
A.Lincoln March 4,1861

And then the war came.

Now,substitute unborn children for left handed people and reread your post,do you think the U.S.Government would invade any state that allowed it?
