The thought of liberty in America, well let me say the United States, is a false one. The country was founded on GREED, THEFT, GENOCIDE, BIGOTRY, HATRED AND SLAVERY. Where is liberty or any kind of freedom found in any of those things?

@AdjutantWatkins Secession is a reserved right of the states since it was not _specifically_ prohibited by the Constitution as in the power of the federal government.

The Union is no longer a voluntary union, and has not been voluntary since Appomattox!

I dont know why people make such a fetish of the Constitution.It is not constitutions that define a people's right to declare their independance,but the principle of Self-Determination.

@AntiVenomFangX You are interjecting conditions of 150 years ago into a discussion of current events.

@AdjutantWatkins The Constitution is a compact amongst States and the people to define their associating together within one border.
When this compact departs from it's purpose and usurps it's limitations, what basis is there for pretending to honor it? Better yet, what legitimate basis is there to bind the States together?

the "days of liberty" were days when women had no liberty, when blacks and other colored people had no liberty.
you're a psycho if you think the days of liberty was when liberty was onyl for white males.

@AdjutantWatkins That's what the British told the Colonists. Every central regime tells people under its subjugation this. Those of us who yearn for liberty, self-rule and cultural preservation don't care what some piece of paper the government waves in our face says. They can keep their constitution, their taxes, their expanisionist wars around the planet, their endless regulations, their Third World immigration, etc. All we want is to be free and be rid of Washington, DC.
