If that day ever comes there won't even BE an America, it would be so fractured it would be unsalvagable. But if the south takes a pro-States Rights stance, I'd side with it.

And the N-word with bombing little girls? That only happened (the bombing anyway) over 50 years ago in Birmingham, Alabama and not once since that occasion.

Sorry for the confusion.

Call it what you want.

The South formed a gang and attacked America.

Quite the contrary, before the Civil War, the states had a real say in what happened in this country, it's the LACK of oppressive federal ommission or protection that is the beauty of it, with the over-reaching monster that our government has become today, it sure would be a breath of fresh air. It is about getting back to what the founders intended.

After the White House refused to approach Confederate Peace Offers.

But it wasn't "ganging up" like you say.

[LEFT]On 25 February 1861, Davis and Toombs dispatched A.B. Roman, Martin J. Crawford, and John Forsyth to Washington to negotiate a peaceful separation and the evacuation of all federal property in the Confederacy. Two days later, Toombs sent William Lowndes Yancey, Pierre A. Rost, and Ambrose Dudley Mann to Europe to secure de jure recognition of the Confederate States of America and treaties of amity and commerce. No thought was given to establishing permanent missions in Washington or any European capital.
Not surprisingly, Roman, Forsyth, and Crawford—who arrived in Washington in early March—had no success there. Seward refused to meet with the commissioners or to arrange a meeting with Lincoln, which they had requested. Unwilling, however, to antagonize the agents, Seward maintained contact through a third party. He assured the Confederates that the Union would not attempt to coerce the seceded states into returning to the Union and still hoped that a peaceful reunion was possible. On 8 April, after a month of waiting impatiently and distrusting Seward's assurance of Lincoln's commitment to the maintenance of peace, Crawford informed Davis of rumors that Lincoln was committed to war. A few days later the three Confederates returned home.
