    Why limit it to just "West Coast Liberals"? Let's include "East Coast Liberals" and Mid-America Liberals", too! :lol:

    Do the former Confederate States get retribution and compensation for the losses they suffered when they tried?

    Session, the war was to force them back into the Union not to end slavery, surely you didn't learn otherwise in school did you?

    Of no matter, the war wasn't to end slavery and free slaves. Lincoln said they could not secede and sent his armies there to engage in total destruction to force them back in WITH their slavery intact.

    So if states are now allowed to secede how do the former Confederate States seek just compensation for the hell and destruction the United States reigned down on them telling them they couldn't.

    You and others even call them traitors, wouldn't the citizens of these western states also be traitors?

    They fought an invastion by the Federal Troops the President had sent to force them back into the Union their slavery intact. So if California seceeds shouldn't the President force them back into the Union even using the military to invade and take over removing their government? Would the people of California be traitors?

    The issue is seccession address it. We fought a brutal civil war over it the lives of millions destroyed by the federal government of the United States because secession is not allowed. If suddenly states are allowed to do so then the former states that suffered more destruction than even Europe in WW2 should recieve just compensation for that destruction unfortunately we can't bring those lives back.

    They seceeded because they wanted to form their own country. And the war was NOT about ending slavery.

    Lincoln and the federal government said you can't seceed and then went about their total destruction to bring them back into the Union WITH their slavery.

    So why should California and the western states be allowed when the Southern states were not? Why wouldn't they be traitors? And if they are allowed then what compensations and reparations should the Southern states recieve for the acts of the federal government.

    They make good clerks. Most are very beta and not particularly pushy, and not prone to big errors. They melt when you get mad at them for mistakes. They begin blushing and getting all submissive. It’s embarrassing. When possible I’d sic the wife on them.
    They usually brown bag it, so they stay with their like minded friends.
    It always amused me when I signed paychecks I wasn’t always sure who “Franklin” was.

    it was definitely about the ending of slavery, the Confederacy wanted no part of that - they felt they had a God given right to own slaves

    It was definately about seceesion and keeping the Union intact. American history 101. Slavery was legal in the United States even after those states left.

    So why do you keep dodging my question about California secession which is the topic HERE, and if they are allowed when do those Southern States get their apology and reparations?

    the civil war was due to slavery, can spin it all you like, but that was the root of the issue

    CA won't secede, lol, not even a potential reality

    "Wouldn't you like to be rid of West Coast Liberals"

    are we talking like a Hitler type thing?

    It was ABOUT secession, THAT is why Lincoln started the war to prevent SECESSION.

    So if the west coast states can and do secede how do those former states that tried before and had the entire United States military engage in a war of total destruction against them get compensated?
