Literally ever last sentence out of your mouth is a lie.
John Brown was stopped by the US military.
He was hanged.
His plot was uncovered in literally hours,and stopped within a few days.
And Brown's six abolitionists who funded him didn't know he planned an uprising. He told them in advance funding had to be given "no questions asked." That's why the six were never charged.
Even if they had known, so what? No one should mourn the death of slave owners any more than that of mass murderers and serial rapists, both of which many slave owners were.
If Brown's plot had gone farther and he'd launched a slave uprising, we'd remember him like Toussaint Loverture and Denmark Vesey and Vicente Guererro.
And I'll bet you don't know a single one of those.
Man, the yankee hates to lose his money. They didn't care if the South went broke in freeing the slaves with no compensation. But now they are so afraid of the 'debt'. What hypocrits. Glory, glory, hallelujah.
Quantrill
Actually the slave owning elites were all about money.
Abolitionists were all about princinple, godliness, and Christian faith.
And antislavery southern whites knew that this war the slave owners started because they were too lazy to work for a living was a rich man's war but a poor man's fight.
The political gulf between Austin and Washington has been growing for decades now.
Washington D.C (aka The Federal Government of the US) has interferred with the States self governance by;:
Stopping Texas from pursuing reforms of the welfare system into a work fare system
Failing to provided adequate and functional border controls
Forcing the State to comply with the racest and sexist policies of the collection of laws know collectively as Affirmative Action
Disallowing Texas to redistrict itself based upon it's own desires and has forced the unpopular redistricting based upon the racest policies of Minority Representation
Directing the State to fund, through it's budgetary processes, items which the State has chosen not to fund
Causing finacial harm and hardships through the actions of the EPA
Taking jobs out of the State based upon the States belief in Right to Work
Funding corporations and supporting market segments in other States that directly compete against existing Companies in Texas that do not receive Federal Tax funding, including segments of the market such as the production of alternative energy, which Texas is the largest creater of
etc, etc
It is very clear that the Federal Government is progressing towards a Political intity that is oppressive to the beliefs and desires of the Poeples of Texas. As there is no treaty between the Republic of Texas and the United States of America surrendering the sovreignty of the Republic of Texas, and that Texas, after accepting the Joint Resolution of Congress of the United States retained it's debt and continued to do business as the Republic of Texas for a time after joining with the United States, then the Republic of Texas has not been truely desolved and that Texas status is that of a Independent but joined sovreign Republic in it's own right and therefore has the inherent right to remove itself from said joining with the United States as it's citizens see fit.
It's best to not paint one side or the other as righteous in the civil war.
The war was won four years before. Any suggestion that it caused the decision four years later is purely wild speculation created by you. I provided you with the decisions as written by Chief Justice Chase. It said not a word about victory being the deciding factor.
Anyone considering the Independence of Texas should also understand what the Republic of Texas was and the territories it covered.

Nor did it cite any constitutional prohibition against secession, which means that, per the 10th amendment, the power to secede was reserved to the states.The war was won four years before.

Even with the reality that one side was fighting to preserve the enslavement of a race of people!?!?!?!?!?
Even when the reality is that one side was fighting to destroy the USA?!?!?!?!?!?
Sorry, but most can recognize the good guys in all this and it sure is not the ones fighting to keep their fellow man in chains.
I'm sure in 51 pages this has already been answered, but here's the FAQ's on Texas secession: Texas Secede! FAQ

On the other hand, you don't own other people, so should feel no sense of loss when they choose to exercise their right of self government. I get the impression that your bitter lashing out at those who wish to govern themselves is akin to the plantation owner lashing out against "his" people that wished to be free.
You don't own the people of Texas.
Habit.
Murdering? I thought you called it total war? Oh I get it. Its total war when the yankee does it. Its murder when the Southernor does it.
How does it feel?
Quantrill
Oh were Americans. Just not yankees. Southernors.
Quantrill
Correction, we are home. Indicating your the one that needs to leave.
Quantrill
No, you are not. Traitors do not get to call themselves Amerians, certainly not loyal ones. And traitors is what every Confederate, neos too, are.
Except for the many draftees forced into the CSA army of course. Naturally they showed how little they thought of the CSA by deserting.
So an American patriot punishes people when they practice their freedoms? Hmm..
Leaving the country when you have money:
We are going to tax your ass and you can never come back!
Leaving the country when you are a state:
You have to pay out of your nose and give me everything!
You are such a patriot. :roll:
Neither do you secesionists. You represent a dying crackpot belief, getting smaller all the time.
They didn't leave the union because of slavery, but a series of state rights violations that included ending slavery.
Their own Declaration of Causes specifically said they were leaving because of slavery.
Their own Declaration of Causes specifically said they were leaving because of slavery.
It's not "freedom" when a small groups of secessionists try to take over the state vs the wishes of the majority of loyal Americans.
You don't even have the support of most whites in the state for secession, much less the whole state population. Latinos, Blacks, Natives, all oppose secesion by 90% or more.
Due to the North's refusal in honoring the protections under the Constitution.
Quantrill
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.
