Right War, Wrong Reason

So the southern states hold up the constitution and say it gives them the right to secede, and the North better get their armies out of the South. The federal government replies, "No it doesn't," and refuses to leave. So the South starts shooting.

What a stupid way to settle a constitutional disagreement.

Shouldn't they have consulted the Supreme Court? It's the court's job, after all, to settle disputes of this nature. There's no need to resort to violence. We had a political process in place and they all threw it out the window so they could go get some rebs/yanks.

Maybe it's a good thing the liberals don't have guns. If they did, a new civil war would be a fair fight. . .
