Okay, so the CSA stole land from the USA, how is this not a good reason to declare war?

[UScalvery]

not only that , but there is more to it as well, i believe it was also Grant's part in it as well, with all of the information he got from canada, that was benifical to the yanks, there is a journal that explains the whole thing, what did what whos to blame, etc, etc, etc. that brings up the world we live in now, it is all controlled.

@Luigi84289 That's what state's rights means. The nationhood of all the states, their Sovereignty.

@egosdark003 The only reason the USA cared was the loss in tax revenue from the south. Lincoln was banking on that money for his term. The whole war was fought over "internal improvements" and resulted in the destruction of what used to be an EU style union and conversion into a single nation or Empire however you want to look at it. The states are countries just suppressed by the Feds. Like if the EU members were forced to give up their nationhood and sovereignty to form one big nation.

[stealthgerm]

white persons generally like to be seen shaking hands and talking familiarly with blacks in the streets." - James S Buckingham English abolitionist

"this is only among the many proofs I had witnessed of the fact, that the prejudice of color is not nearly so strong in the South as in the North. In the south it is not at all uncommon to see black slaves of both sexes shake hands with white people when they meet, and interchange friendly personal inquiries: but at the North I do not remember to have witnessed this once: and neither in Boston, New York, or Philadelphia would
