I'm American too.

in spirit or law, or both?

But when they started, what they did wasn't exactly illegal

Immigrant but I identify as American

who is they in this statement

The south

thats great, now just get it made legal!

I am, im naturalized

Was in 2008

treason is illegal

The constitution was literally reinterpreted under Lincoln to have reason to go to war with the south

lets accept your premise

unconditionally

I don't think they should destroy those statues....as ugly as their history is, they are historical artificats

That's.... well understood?

At least put them in a museum

doesnt matter, the south left the united states, b/c they were losing a constitutional battle

and resorted to war to get what they wanted

The debate comes down to whether people think what Lincoln did was the right thing or not, and it's generally accepted that it was

treasonous

i dont care

to me that siliphism is meaningless

@Reaps linked that news thing from the wire

Okay, greyfag. Go have your hisssy fit elesewhere

sure lincoln was going to bend them over the constitution and destroy their way of life, i get it, they were but hurt

still doesnt justify treason and killing fellow americans in combat over it

@Reaps

forgot the pic lol

It wasn't treasonous at that point

what point?

Itd be like Brexit lol

when they left the uninon

or when they shot american soldiers in the field?

b/c when the shooting started they were in the wrong

With that logic, the Revolution was wrong

and all the us officers who left the union and fought for the south, including lee

it was

from the view of england

@EmEm Is that on the retard server that Franti linked?

it was illegal to spurn your king

No
