THE SOUTH SHALL RISE AGAIN!!!

Neither is secession.

Discussing secession is illegal?

[Dinner]

The United States Supreme Court ruled unilateral secession unconstitutional

They're traitors attempting to over thrown the duly elected constitutional government. Time to get a rope.

Yeah, except they are asking the federal government to let them go. What is unilateral about that?

No, discussing illegal activities is legal.

Let me get this straight.

10 states want to secede. They go to Washington and get the federal government and 16 other states to agree that they can go (majority of states for a constitutional amendment, right?).

What's illegal about that? They just changed the fundamental law to make it legal.

Secession isn't necessarily illegal. ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU ARE ASKING PERMISSION!

Constitutional amendments require approval of three quarters of the states. In that case sure, they can leave.

Jeez, Oerdin, buy a little perspective.

Now dab it behind your ears. It'll make you so much more attractive of a poster.

So you admit that discussing it is not a legal problem?

I am scratching my head here. In the land of the free and the home of the brave I have citizens standing up and saying that expressing preferences is illegal.

Rather skimpy dress being worn by that harlot, I say,

[giblets]

Theoretically we could also have a constitutional amendment to exile *******s and revoke their citizenship.

[notyoueither]

And would it be illegal to propose such an amendment?

No? I didn't think so.

No? I didn't think so.

Did I ever say it would be illegal? No? Didn't think so.

[notyoueither]

I misread some of your posts.

However, you did say that secession is illegal. I would say it is not when the federal govenrment and a sufficient number of states say it is.

Other than that, you jumped into a discussion about expression as treason and are on a bad side of a line.

[giblets]

Yes, I did not make it sufficiently clear that I don't agree with Dinner's assessment that these people are "traitors".

I rather liked that map.

From the city limits to the state border doesn't have quite the same ring as from the mountains to the pairies..
