They didn't leave the union because of slavery, but a series of state rights violations that included ending slavery.
I know you keep saying the same thing again and again hoping that will make it true, but the "right" to own other people is not Constitutionally guaranteed. It doesn't change that the South seceded to protect a labor system that was based on the enslavement of an entire race of people. In fact, in every post you say that slavery was protected and the North wouldn't let that persist just proves that was the reason.
I'm proud to live in a country that banned this evil practice. If you're not, then get out. Nobody is holding you and the rest of the KKK back.
If you want people to be happy you take steps to make them happy. You don't abuse them and make them want to leave and then punish them when they think of doing it to make them think otherwise about it.
Slavery was contitutionally protected. Article 4 sec.2. Nothing you say will change it.
The Southe seceded because the North did not acknowledge the South as equals under the Constitution.
That the North didn't like it, is immaterial. It was protected. The South was not the traitor. The North was. Until they of course could rewrite the Constitution.
I don't need to get out. You do. I just need to reside in the South and you need to leave. There's a thought. Yankee go home.
Ha ha ha ha ha.
Glory, glory, halleleujah.

The Dred Scott decision was a slap in the face of states rights. It basically threw out a state's right to say that they wouldn't allow slavery. No Southern apologist or states rights advocate wants to talk about it.
It wasn't about slavery is the lie that started with Jefferson Davis, because he didn't want to look like the bad guy, and it continues with people who don't want to seem like a racist when they defend the Confederacy. But, it was, according to th VP of the CSA, the "cornerstone."
I live in a country that ended the barbaric practice of keeping other people as property. I'm proud of that.
If you're not, you leave.
Slavery was protected by the Constitution. If a state wanted to declare that it did not want slavery in its state, by the popular vote, then it could.
Of course not, we should allow people to own other people if it makes them happy.
Because your so good. Because you come under a greater law than the Constitution, right? You and your damnyankees's don't need to abide by the Constitution. Right? Until you rewrite it. Right?
Then you are against abortion. Good to know.
Really? Are you aware of what the Dred Scott decision said?

And you're a "Libertarian" who is in favor of enslaving other people? :lamo
Well, I am better at speaking the English language. There's a difference between "you're" and "your."
There is a greater law than the Constitution. God's law. Which states that it's wrong to own other people as property.

That came from where? :lamo
Your brave defense of people's right to secede to protect slavery.
Oh, that picture determines what the higher law says. I don't see that proving anything. Who tells you what the 'higher law' says?
Quantrill
I posted a picture of the man. It determines who says what the higher law is.
And what did 'it' say? What makes it above the Constitution? And who determines what 'it'says?
That's something aint it. The damnyankee sees himself above the constitution, until he changes it.
Glory, glory....hallelujah!

Must not be me because I couldn't stand the smell of cattle and refineries. Each one is bad enough, together I'd just puke.Correction, we are home. Indicating your the one that needs to leave.

That's priceless coming from a Libertarian.
It would be priceless coming from a 'common' conservative.
So Jesus isn't above the Constitution? Good to know. I guess I should be worshipping Jefferson Davis instead.
