“The BIG question lately - CAN STATES SECEDE?”
Of course they can. I think the question is, can they secede “legally?”
Ultimately, whether they can do it legally or not is really not the issue, however. The ultimate question is can the states secede morally, and of course they can. Everyone knows this is true, unless they believe the American revolution was immoral.
