What do you think of the War of Northern Attrition?

Lincoln was under no obligation to allow the southern slavers to help themselves to US government resources, and nowhere in the Constitution is it stated that the President is obligated to sit back and let the country dissolve.

And here we have another vote for the curious opinion that the Tenth can just be put aside if the ruling class doesn't like it. Ho hum.

And here we have the ridiculous idea that it’s okay for slavers to launch repeated attacks against the United States, but if the government defends itself that “violates the Constitution”.

Nobody thinks that your one trick pony inputs lead to a good debate.

Unless you're over 150 years old, it ended long before you were born. Either way, what's the point dwelling over something that ended over a century and a half ago?

Picking at long healed scabs....they need something to be outraged over.

Except, of course, that nothing was “healed”.

That is true. The “citizens” of the South held on to their apartheid society for another century, to include regular criminal acts of arson and lynching. Must make you very proud.

Why do you think it’d make me proud bud? Congrats on humiliating yourself again.
 
When a reporter asked China Joes thoughts on the war of attrition he firmly responded that he will sign surrender orders asap!

Come back when you have a better understanding of the timeline pertaining to the Civil War.

The timeline shows that the people behind the Confederacy predicted that when Lincoln took office, he would be a hardass about secession, and their prediction was completely correct. They certainly didn't secede in reaction to the outgoing Buchanan.

Doesn't matter if they're slave states or free states; all states had the right of secession, and anyone who abrogates that right violates the Constitution.

"Nobody thinks"-- is the only true part of your sentence as regards you and your fellow one sentence wonders.

The South seceded because Lincoln was going to take office.

Therefore Lincoln could not have violated the Tenth Amendment as you stupidly claim.

Your line is BS with a side order of ignorance.

Please lie again.

The South feared Lincoln would be hardline about slavery. The number one reason for secession.
