Agreed. I would just add that state sovereignty was the core issue for the secessionists, as increasing control was to the central government supremacy crowd. All else is revisionist history.

Yeah it's not like Confederates gave speeches laying out their exact reasons that included slavery or anything like that...

As it was then, it is now. The tyranny of the central government is destroying liberty as it prioritizes its warfare on True American Patriots by enacting oppressive diversity measures and outlawing Christianity. Under KKKlintoon and hussein, it's only gotten worse with abortion reaching record volumes.

That's why the next act of secession doubtlessly led by Texas and other states of the old Confederacy will find allies in other states such as the Dakotas. Imagine a renewed nation comprised of Alabama, Kansas, Mississippi, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Texas and other like-minded states. The economic might alone will leave liberal cesspools like California, Massachusetts and New York relegated to even more of a third world status than they already are.

Indeed, to quote from snooter55, BRING IT!
