Happy 150th birthday, Confederate Flag
Posted by: TJ Jackson ()
Date: March 04, 2011 01:53PM

Today marks the 150th birthday of the original Stars & Bars.

Can't wait until September when Fairfax can celebrate the 150th of the battle flag. The marker at Main & Oak Streets, Farifax:

Inscription: During the First Battle of Manassas, amid the smoke of combat, troops found it difficult to distinguish between Union and Confederate flags. Generals P.G.T. Beauregard, Joseph E. Johnston and Quartermaster General William L. Cabell met near here in September 1861 and approved the first Confederate battle flag; a square red flag with blue diagonally crossed bars, and 12 stars. This pattern was adapted for use in other battle flags and was incorporated into the Confederate national flag in 1863. Beauregard's headquarters also hosted the 1 Oct. 1861 Fairfax Court House conference, during which Confederate President Davis and his generals plotted strategy.

Happy Birthday to the most traitorous, anti-American thing a person can display. Come salute a foreign flag symbolizing slavery and the deaths of more than 300,000 American soldiers.

Slavery existed for many, many years under the American flag. 300,000 American soldiers would not have had to die if Virginia was not invaded.

The state's rights to own slaves and take up arms against the United States.

Robert E. Lee should have been hung like a terrorist the moment he was captured.

State's Right?! Slavery, was the driving force behind the war. Sure, most of those who fought in the war, owned little to no slaves (a rich man's war fought by the poor), but come on. If State's Rights were the case, when California came into the Union as a free state, it would not have set the wheels in motions for a Civil War. California being a free state (state's right) put a physical limit to how far west slavery could spread. This didn't sit well in the south.

If police surrounded a hostage-taker who later comes out and surrenders, and reports say "police captured the suspect", the story would be correct and accurate.

You aren't arguing semantics, you are arguing historical facts, which is really dumb. At no time was Lee in the command and control of Grant - hence, he wasn't captured. At no point di Grant put the cuffs on Lee - unlike your failed analogy above.

And I suppose all those Japanes guys wearing top hats and tuxes surrendering on the USS MO were "captured" too? LOL

Robert E. Lee should have been hung like a terrorist?

I'm a Yankee and proud of that. But I now live in Virginia and have learned a lot about the history of this great state. Robert E. Lee was no terrorist. He was an honorable man with conflicted loyalties. His decision had little to zero to do with slavery. Hanging him would have made the South all the more bitter and would have delayed the start of a (long enough as it was) healing process. You must be an idiot to think he should have been hung. He was no threat at all to the US after the war. What would have been the purpose of killing him?

Hatred like yours leads to more hatred. It does nothing good. We need to put this chapter behind us. I don't especially like seeing the "stars and bars" displayed just because the people who display it seem to do so for divisive reasons. As a historical symbol, I have no problem with it. But, unfortunately, it is often displayed with other intentions.

Dear Yankees,

If the South WON....
Our country would have been a better place to live than it is now. The war between the states was a war of states' rights vs. a strong federal government.
Our country would have been more in line with what the founders had in mind if the South won. Our founding fathers never intended the intrusive and confiscatory system of big government that we have now. Laws, as they should, would be made at the local and state level and a weak federal system could not inflict itself on the people. The founders were smart. They knew that strong centralized government was not good for the people. The very reason the right to keep and bear arms is in the constitution is not to protect you from grizzly bears but to protect you from the government. They even advocate the overthrow of the government if it becomes oppressive. Of course our government schools would never teach that truth. As far as the army is concerned, the federal government could do that with money collected from tariffs, not personal income taxes. But alas, we did not win. The Lost Cause (State's Rights) was lost and now we have a form of democracy (mob rule) that little resembles the Republic that those Founders birthed so many years ago.

The Battle Flag was adopted by the segregationist movement in the 1950s. The real Confederate Flag was the Stars and Bars, not the Battle Flag. In fact, many Confederate leaders of the day disparaged the Battle Flag, even referring to it as "suspenders."

The Battle Flag rose to prominence as a symbol of racism, not as some icon of Southern Heritage.

The flag of failure. It's right up there with British Honduras, Rhodesia and Zanzibar. Totally irrelevant and an icon of history.

If the South has almost won, it would be a symbol of antagonism. But the South failed big time so it's nothing more than an amusement. Today, it is the flag of Civil War hobbyist and those who have pride in being from the South.

Actually, everytime I see the confederate flag, it makes me think of that sweet '69 Dodge Charger (General Lee) on Dukes of Hazzard.

I completely agree,

I'd like to add that if the CSA had in fact won they'd probably be a third world shit hole by now due to their rejection of the industrial revolution.

God Bless the Confederacy and God Bless the Battle Flag. The Southerners of 1861 did precisely what Southern slaveowners like George Washington and Thomas Jefferson did in 1776;they declared independcence. More importantly, had their vision of America materialized, their country (the CSA) would be a safe haven from the filthy, corrupt, drug-infested, prostitute-filled, crime-ridden influences that permeate Norhtern cities like Philadelphia, Chicago, Detroit, New York,Boston, Cleveland, Newark and Pittsburgh. And in the CSA the negroes would be disciplined and productive, and not murdering, pimping, whoring, thieves. Illegals would be non-existent. And it is an absolute shame that that stupid, quasi-literate, ignoramus bumkpkin, lawless, mass-murdering tyrant Lincoln became President. He was, however, properly executed by John Wilkes Boothe, a hero if there ever was one.

Some good points raised here. Another one is that the southern negro agricultural laborers(slaves if you insist) had a far superior quality of life when compared to the quality of life of the northern negroes. The agricultural laborers were better fed, clothed, housed, and also had acess to quality medical care that northern negroes never had.

Yeah, and in the same alternate universe northern negroes were all stockbrokers, lawyers, doctors, architects and lawyers. And the northern negroe were highly paid, with huge mansions, ample vacation time, and health benefits. And there was no slave trading in the northern ports of Boston, New York and Philadelphia, and the nmorthern mills did not buy enormous quantities of slave products, like cotton, sugar, rice, coffee, and tobacco.

You cretins are as useless as you are clueless. I only wish we could ship all the ignorant limousine-liberal pigs back to africa like the northern slave-traders did so long ago.

If America is so bad and whites treat non-whites so badly, why is it that so many non-whites clammor to get here. No matter how people got here, they struggled for survival once they did arrive. Happens even today with immigrants (legal and not) working 2 or 3 low paying slave-type jobs just to get by with most helping family left behind. I know immigrants who were high-level politicians and professionals in their own countries who arrive here and are struggling as security guards, taxi drivers, parking lot attendants, etc. Imagine the mental anguish they must be enduring just with that career swing. People do what they must and thank God this country is large and strong enough to withstand it.

What bothers me is when the decendants of slaves act as if something is owed to them because their ancestors were brought here and worked as slaves. If that ancestor slave was so poorly treated, you wouldn't be here today. This country and the white folks here owe you NOTHING. It is that sort of entitlement thinking that drives prejudice. Get a job and be normal without expecting handouts. Most slaves brought and bought here were thought of as an investment. No one abuses an investment. They feed them well and keep them healthy because they want that investment to work for them a long time - and at minimum reproduce. Certainly along the line there was a hot young lady who got the attention of the Master and I don't blame him for taking a little dip there. I'd probably have done the same thing. Even Mr. Lincoln himself couldn't control that in himself.

Another frightening thing is how black Americans will continue to support this black president under any circumstance. If you must support a black man for president, why not choose one who will do better by the country?

After the war, Jefferson Davis, the President of the Confederacy, was arrested and placed in prison prior to a trial. The trial was never held, because the chief justice of the Supreme Court, Mr. Salmon Portland Chase, informed President Andrew Johnson that if Davis were placed on trial for treason the United States would lose the case because nothing in the Constitution forbids secession. That is why no trial of Jefferson Davis was held, despite the fact that he wanted one.

So was secession treason? The answer is clearly No.

You both need to get a dose of reality.

How can you say the ACW wasn't about slavery? The war would not have happened when it happened the way it happened except for the fact that slavery existed in the south but had largely been abolished in the north. OTOH you cannot say that the war was JUST about slavery. If you'd held an election in 1860 on whether to abolish slavery it probably would have lost even in the northern states, and several slave states, Virginia among them, were reluctant to leave the union.

...it was a time in history when the constitution was very unclear regarding the issues of slavery/secession....the men who wrote the constitution never put much emphasis on slavery because slaves were a way of life and had never been considered more than property..Therefore they never gave it much thought that less than a hundred years from the time they wrote the constitution, that the idea of giving slaves rights and freedom would ever come into question.

the Civil War was simply two sides clashing over their own different ways of life...

both northerners and southerners felt almost equally about the idea of slavery

there were some northerners who hated slavery and there were northerners who supported slavery.....it was the same way in the south...some southerners supported it and some despised it. ..for example Union General Ulysses Grant owned many slaves while Confederate General Robert Lee freed all his slaves and believed slavery was wrong.

Men chose to fight for their states and the rights of their states...not over slavery. most men in the south did not own slaves...and the ones who did own slaves had paid their way out of fighting....

slavery AND secession were both considered constitutional. the constitution only mentions slaves as "other persons" and only considers them as property. There is absolutely nothing in the Constitution or any other legal document which precludes any state or group of states from seceding from the United States.

slavery was found everywhere in the north, but a few years after the turn of the 19th century, most northern states found slavery to be non profitable and abolished it....however four northern states were still slave holding states at the time of the civil war..they chose to fight for the union because they believed keeping the seceding states part of the union was more beneficial to their state and the USA..... but of course slavery was very beneficial to the way of life to many southerners...therefore they didnt want their way of life threatened and didnt believe the federal goverment had the right to end slavery..

Not so fast on the morality issue Robert. Remember, it was the Northerners, from states such as New York, Masachusetts, Rhode Island, and Pennsylvannia, that brought the negroes, bound in chains, to the United States to begin with. The North was equally responsible for the institution of slavery. And don't forget that while the war was being fought, slaver was perfectly legal in the Union States of Maryland, Kentucky, Delaware, Missouri, and West Virginia.

Um, we were talking about States Rights, I thought

not FUTURE States - what sorta bullshit is that?

Lordy, y'all grasping at straws

and I love the comparison of the traitor-states to the Colonies.

The Colonies were being taxed without representation in English Parliment . ALL the traitorstates had representation in the US Congress, they just were just all butthurt things werent going their way, werent mature enough to work with the system they AGREED TO, and decided to become terrorists instead.

Gordon-

They signed the constitution shoch does NOT say that it cannot secede. They were acting within their rights. You continuous analogies show that you fail to grasp simple concepts. I have never heard of the Civil War being compared to a lease agreement, probably because it is such a shit argument.

BULLSHIT! You sign a contract, you cant break it unless it says you can, or when you can, or when it is over

and that's what the US Constituion is, a CONTRACT

the traitor-states didnt like how the game was being played, so they opened fire with guns INSTEAD of playing politix like grow-ups do

It's not like they didnt have Congressmen in DC, or not know how to be Senators.

They couldnt play the game, so they tried to change the rules, plain and simple

Fucking traitors

You are thinking about this in 21st century terms. The Federal Government was not as strong and all-encompassing as it is today (mostly thanks to the outcome of the Civil War). The right that most commonly violated was that of nullification - I will let you research that on your own so I am not accused of having a slant one way or another.

I have given you an example of a state right being infringed, please point me to the section in the Constitution that says it is forbidden for a state to secede. You at least owe us that as you keep asking others to defend their position. Defend yours.

The Civil War happened because of Coulda-Shoulda-Wouldas

The South was so afraid they couldnt LEGALLY argue slavery as a way of life, they decided to become traitors instead. They had PLENTY of time, and all the LEGAL REPRESENTATION that all states had at the time

And they couldnt do it, so they resorted to guns

same as any common thug would these days in a drug deal gone bad

Slavery was the South's crack rock ROFLMAO!!!

about 'valid' arguments - y'all hillbillies still havent answered Robert's orignal question about what state's right was violated. And you act like it's legal to break a contract when there are no stipulations on when/where that legally binding contract can be broken.

I cant teach law to ppl too stupid to understand basic 11th grade logic, much less figure out why you are so upset for me calling you out for yr traitorism, when you are SO PROUD OF IT IN THE FIRST PLACE!

I mean, that's what started this whole thread in the first place - pride over the Confederate Flag

So if yr proud of the Confederacy, be proud of it - just dont act like it's part of the United States - cause it HAD A FUCKING WAR WITH THE US - and did so in an act of traitorism, plain and simple

Damn, for a peoples so allegedly proud of themselves, you really do end up sounding like a bunch cry-babys - I'm really stunned by how easy this has been.

I wonder if any of y'all will scrap up enough gray matter and actually be able to answer Robert's question, and not resort to hypothetical "future states"

or just mimic my comments back to me - that's so 3rd grade o_0

You know you win when they cant come up with an original post, and just copy what you say, Meeper

I'm not too sure what Tully is trying to prove. The Confederate states "suck-seeded" (LoLz) from the United States to form their own country. That's kinda fact.

they fired on the United States like Al-Quida, and kinda just went from there.

and you act like that's all lickety-split fine. Ok, that's yr right (as an American, which is REALLY kinda funny, but neither here nor there) to believe what you want.

But those states were committing acts of TREASON against the United States at the time, cause they A) STARTED THEIR OWN COUNTRY and B) MADE WAR WITH THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

Has nothing to do with the reasoning, or how anybody feels about slavery, states, rights, what have you

You come off sounding like a coward. Instead of being proud of the actions of the Confederacy, you want to hide behind the VERY SAME LAWS AND PROTECTIONS that the Confederacy betrayed when it turned against the US.

A TRUE CONFEDERATE PATRIOT WOULD ACKNOWLEDGE WHAT THEY DID and then debate the merits of why it was done, not hide behind the very same Constitution they betrayed

you prolly have Confederate soldiers rolling in their graves all up and down the coast right now LoLz

They're arguments are filled with much irony and LOLs.

Their heritage wound up on the wrong side of history and most of the unintelligent ones can't handle that. I'd be embarrassed about that too. To cope, they've invented this fantasyland defense-mechanism in which Lincoln was a mass murderer, slaves happily worked for free, blacks were racists, traitors are patriots and the Union were traitors, the sky is purple, etc. It's something that makes no sense to anyone but a tiny percentage of people living in the southeastern US.

Incorrect. Texas v. White decided things that took place before, during, and after the war. Specifically, treasury bonds that southern states owned before they "seceded".

Agreed, but once again it's 'after the fact'. There was no Texas v. White in 1860, so there had been no court decision making secession illegal when they seceeded.

And I didnt say rednecks - cause rednecks at least are PROUD of who they are, and dont HIDE behind stuff like y'all seem to be doing

it is funny as shit that you want me to prove something in the Constitution that says "oh, you can shit all over this document all you want"

Most legal paperwork doesnt say "oh, you can break these rules whenever you feel like it". Some actually do, though. And THATS WHEN IT"S LEGAL TO DO SO - WHEN IT ACTUALLY SAYS THAT.

The real question is: "show me in the US Constitution where it says secession is a legal recourse of the states who agree to become a part of the United States"

that's the common sense approach - but since y'all seem to only see it backwards (all hillbilly backwards LoLz), that way of thinking (we grown ups call it LOGIC) seems to escape you.

Seriously, why do you care what I have to say anyways? I know the Confederate States of America and her supporters were traitors to the United States. I know this cause the states that were the Confederate States of America were the VERY SAME STATES that agreed to the Constitution.

So if you are proud of the Confederacy, that's fine, that's yr business. The United States of America is such an EXCELLENT COUNTRY, that we wont hang you for the traitors you are. That's just one of the things about the US that make it Number 1

the comment I made about wife beaters has nothing to do about the Civil War - that was directed to the mentality of those who claim to love somebody (or in this case something) that they CHOOSE to attack.

Nobody forced the Confederacy to "suck-seed" (LoLz) or start a war. They ahad legitimate representation in Congress, they choose to fight. And I'm not even arguing the what's, why's, etc. I'm just saying that to be loyal to a Country that declared war on the United States is an act of treason, being a traitor to the United States, plain and simple.

We over here are all kinda surprised at the fact ppl who are so allegedly proud of their country cant get over the fact that the someone from the Country they fought is calling them out on their treason - I mean, this WHOLE THREAD started by praising the flag of a nation that made war with the US so it's not like I'm making up stuff, y'know?

we dont hate you because of the way you feel on this subject..
we hate you because you approach this so child like ...anyone past the fifth grade that still does "Yr mom said the same thing to me last night LoLz " type of jokes...is an idiot.

and most of us here are debating the legality of the civil war (wich is an interesting debate)...both sides make great arguments....im sick of you saying everyone who argues for the confederacy is all traitors....these people simply believe that the south had a right to secede(AT THAT TIME)...i believe the south had that right...however im not going to argue it here, because im dealing with you, GORDON BLVD, and your response will be something totally irrelevant or about my mom."LOLz"..

also none of us are saying we support slavery or secession from the United States in THIS DAY AND AGE....we are simply saying AT THAT TIME in history it made sense for the Southern states to secede..or as you would like to call it "suck-seed..Lolz"..

life was different in the 19th century..politics were different...the country was so much younger....slavery existed since the beginning of time, but the times were changing....industrialization vs plantation system....old way of life clashing with the new way of life....the people back then were more loyal to their state rather than their country...it was a different way of life....you have to put that into perspective...

I (personally) side with the confederates' belief that they had the right to succeed and fend for their rights/way of life....but the north had well intentions and preserving the union was justifiable. both sides make good arguments....but to each their own....

also please learn to spell....and since you are such a patriot...you should learn that the united states was attacked by al-Qaeda...not Al Quida.....

All I said is that the act of starting a new country and declaring war on the US is an act of treason, and traitors

then everyone started getting all butthurt, defending the Confederacy like the act of Treason is comparable to violating HOV rules or something

and still, nobody ever pointed out one thing that other dude asked about how the Feds infringed on the rights of the Southern states before they decided to abandon the US and turn traitor

GORDON, i never understand what the fuck you are trying to say man. its funny cause the way you come across, i imagine you as some ignorant redneck...perhaps you are an ignorant Yankee redneck...i s'pose....how is debating the legality of a war "kinda stupid" ?? because it was so fucked up and a lot of people died, you rule it uninteresting topic to discuss and neglect it to debate?

GORDON, a history lesson for you.. READ THE FOLLOWING....i hope this clears up everything for the rest of you too.


Following the Declaration of Independence, each colony established by law the legitimacy of its own sovereignty as a state. Each one drew up, voted upon, and then ratified its own state constitution, which declared and defined its sovereignty as a state. Realizing that they could not survive upon the world stage as thirteen individual sovereign nations, the states then joined together formally into a confederation of states, but only for the purposes of negotiating treaties, waging war, and regulating foreign commerce. For those specific purposes the thirteen states adopted the Articles of Confederation in 1781, thus creating the United States of America. The Articles of Confederation spelled out clearly where the real power lay. Article II said, “Each state retains its sovereignty, freedom, and independence, and every power, jurisdiction, and right, which is not by this confederation expressly delegated to the United States, in Congress assembled.” The Article also prohibited the secession of any member state (“the union shall be perpetual,” Article XIII) unless all of the states agreed to dissolve the Articles.!!!!!

dun dun dun!

Six years later!, the Constitutional Convention was convened in Philadelphia, supposedly to overhaul the Articles. The delegates in Philadelphia decided to scrap the Articles and to propose to the states a different charter—the United States Constitution. Its purpose was to RETAIN the Sovereignty of the States but to delegate to the United States government a few more powers than the Articles had granted it. One MAJOR difference between the two charters was that the Constitution made NO MENTION of “perpetual union,” and it did not contain any prohibition against the secession of states from the union!!!!! The point was raised in the convention: Should there be a “perpetual union” clause in the Constitution? The delegates voted it down, and the states were left free to secede under the Constitution.

Some people like GORDON BLVD see the Confederates as traitors to their nation because many Confederate leaders swore to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States when joining the United States Army. However, at that time people were citizens of individual states that were members of the United States, so that when a state seceded, the citizens of that state were no longer affiliated with the national government. Remember, the Constitution did not create an all-powerful national democracy, but rather a confederation of sovereign states. The existence of the Electoral College, the Bill of Rights, and the United States Senate clearly shows this, and although it is frequently ignored, the 10th Amendment specifically states that the rights not given to the federal government are the rights of the states and of the people. But if states do not have the right to secede, they have no rights at all. Lincoln’s war destroyed the government of our founding fathers by the “might makes right” method, a method the Republicans used to quash Confederates and loyal Democrats alike.

After the war, Jefferson Davis, the President of the Confederacy, was arrested and placed in prison prior to a trial. The trial was never held, because the chief justice of the Supreme Court, Mr. Salmon Portland Chase, informed President Andrew Johnson that if Davis were placed on trial for treason the United States would lose the case because nothing in the Constitution forbids secession. That is why no trial of Jefferson Davis was held, despite the fact that he wanted one.

So was secession treason? The answer is clearly No.

if you want to ignore the FACTS

Rule 3.3: Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.

Just cause they didnt go thru the motions (geez, maybe it had more to do with the fact they didnt want another Civil War over it) doesnt mean he didnt do the acts.

But per yr own words:

"many Confederate leaders swore to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States when joining the United States Army. However, at that time people were citizens of individual states that were members of the United States, so that when a state seceded, the citizens of that state were no longer affiliated with the national government."

which means they were attacking the United States of America, the VERY SAME UNITED STATES OF AMERICA THEIR STATES DECLARED WAR ON. If their states agreed to the Constitution, then left it - that would be one thing - but THEY DECLARED WAR AND SET UP THEIR OWN NATION, CONSTITUTION, ARMY, etc. and THAT'S what makes them traitors


I mean, treason is one of the few laws mentions specifically in the Constitution - still unsure why those who'd pledge Allegiance to another country would try and hide behind the US Constitution, but whatevers - that's what makes it so awesome - it still will protect you LoLz

Oran's Dictionary of the Law (1983) defines treason as "...[a]...citizen's actions to help a foreign government overthrow, make war against, or seriously injure the [parent nation]." In many nations, it is also often considered treason to attempt or conspire to overthrow the government, even if no foreign country is aided or involved by such an endeavour.

They just choose to abandon the United States cause things were going there way, kinda like a buncha spoiled-ass cry babys

It is HILARIOUS that the same ppl who are defending the Confederacy to me, are doing so by claiming ownershipe of the VERY SAME CONSTITUTION THEY BETRAYED!!!

GORDON,

you know i hate you...and i believe your rebuttals are worthless and lacking intellect....more like random blabbing and using "Lolz" too much because you think you are really comical...(you are not, by the way)

BUT...you bring up a great question

Gordon BLVD says---
"""and how and where was that happening from the Federal Govt before the Civil War?
cause in case you didnt notice, slavery was legal in the United States until AFTER the Civil War """

let me explain (this also answers GORDON BLVD's idea that the south had equal representation in Congress..)

Correct, slavery was legal until after the civil war..in fact the civil war wasn't fought because Lincoln wanted to end slavery all together in the good ol USofA...he wanted to LIMIT slavery....When new territories became available in the West the South wanted to expand and use slavery in the newly acquired territories. But the North opposed this and wanted to stop the extension of slavery into new territories. The North wanted to limit the number of slave states in the Union. But many Southerners felt that a government dominated by free states could endanger existing slaveholdings(also here is where balance of power would be disrupted if all future states were non slave owning states, then the south would be at a disadvantage in govt). The South wanted to protect their states right... when lincoln was elected, the South felt that expansionism was being threatened, and because expansion was vital to the survival of slavery they also felt their way of life was being threatened. Because slavery was such an important part of Southern society, the South felt that they could not survive without it. Now they felt there was nothing more they could do. They were convinced that they should make a bid for independence by succeeding rather then face political encirclement!!!


well again, i did my best to explain this to you, ya knuckle head.
also i dont hate you...i just dont really like you...hate is such a strong word ya know LOlz.....im sure ur gonna come back at me saying somthing like"treason! spoiled ass cry baby confederate traitors!" but come on dude...i already explained to you that the CSA's secession from the union was clearly not treason...


THANKS,
JIMMY Mo'fuckim JAmes.

Where does the Constitution prohibit secession? There's certainly no express prohibition, and it's difficult to argue that a prohibition is implicit in the text.

The strongest argument for the latter was made by Lincoln in his inaugural address. http://lincoln.thefreelibrary.com/Abraham-Lincolns-First-Inaugural-Address

He argued that the purpose of the United States Constitution was "to form a more perfect union" than the Articles of Confederation, which were explicitly perpetual ("the Articles of this Confederation shall be inviolably observed by every State, and the Union shall be perpetual." AOC XIII); thus the Constitution too was perpetual.

The obvious counter to this, however, is that the elimination of the "perpetual" clause from the Constitution is clearly indicative of the framers' intention to obviate that provision.

In the same speech, Lincoln advances the further argument that even if the Constitution were a simple contract, it would require the agreement of all parties to rescind it, and therefore any ordinances of secession were "legally void".

But again, there is an obvious counter to this: in the case of a breach, a contract can be rescinded at will by the non-breaching party.

In August of 1856, BEFORE the Dred Scott decision, Lincoln had stated the following:

"Do you say that such restriction of slavery would be unconstitutional, and that some of the States would not submit to its enforcement?

I grant you that an unconstitutional act is not a law; but I do not ask and will not take your construction of the Constitution.

The Supreme Court of the United States is the tribunal to decide such a question, and we will submit to its decisions; and if you do also, there will be an end of the matter.

Will you? If not, who are the disunionists -- you or we?"

However, AFTER the Supreme Court rendered its decision, the northern states REFUSED to submit to it; northern legislatures passed laws that said no person in the state should be considered as property, and set free every slave who came into the state.

Therefore, by Lincoln's own word, the northern states - by refusing to submit to the decision of the Supreme Court - breached the Constitutional "contract," thus empowering the non-breaching southern states to rescind it.

I doubt that you've read the opinion.

As Justice Grier's dissent rightly observes, the question of secession was decided in battle, long before it reached the Supreme Court. http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/historics/USSC_CR_0074_0700_ZD.html

Further, Justice Chase's summary conclusion as to the indissolubility of the Union, as noted by leading Constitutional scholar David Currie, "hardly seems an adequate treatment of an issue on which reasonable people had differed to the point of civil war" (David P. Currie, The Constitution in the Supreme Court: The First Hundred Years, 1789-1888 (Univ. of Chicago Press, 1992), p. 312)

Specifically, Chase's brief argument rests primarily on the "perfect union" language of the Constitution, which arguments fails, as discussed above.

Texas v. White, 74 U.S. 700 (1869) was a significant case argued before the United States Supreme Court in 1869. The case involved a claim by the Reconstruction government of Texas that United States bonds owned by Texas since 1850 had been illegally sold by the Confederate state legislature during the American Civil War. The state filed suit directly with the United States Supreme Court, which, under the United States Constitution, retains original jurisdiction on cases in which a state is a party.

In accepting jurisdiction, the court ruled that Texas had remained a state ever since it first joined the Union, despite its joining the Confederate States of America and its being under military rule at the time of the decision in the case. In deciding the merits of the bond issue, the court further held that the Constitution did not permit states to secede from the United States, and that the ordinances of secession, and all the acts of the legislatures within seceding states intended to give effect to such ordinances, were "absolutely null".

let's see: Chase wrote that the original Union of the colonies had been made in reaction to some very real problems faced by the colonists. The first result of these circumstances was the creation of the Articles of Confederation which created a PERPETUAL UNION union between these states. The Constitution, when it was implemented, only STRENGTHENED and perfected this perpetual relationship.[14]

Chase wrote: The Union of the States never was a purely artificial and arbitrary relation. It began among the Colonies, and grew out of common origin, mutual sympathies, kindred principles, similar interests, and geographical relations. It was confirmed and strengthened by the necessities of war, and received definite form and character and sanction from the Articles of Confederation. By these, the Union was solemnly declared to "BE PERPETUAL." And when these Articles were found to be inadequate to the exigencies of the country, the Constitution was ordained "TO FORM A MORE PERFECT UNION." IT IS DIFFICULT TO CONVEY THE IDEA OF INDISSOLUBLE UNITY MORE CLEARLY THAN BY THESE WORDS!!!!!. What can be indissoluble if a perpetual Union, made more perfect, is not?[15]

The dude said the Union was perfect, made CLEARLY in the Constitution.

Chase ruled that the state's relationship with White and Chiles "was therefore treasonable and void."[17] Consequently, he ordered that the current state of Texas still retained ownership of the bonds and were entitled to either the return of the bonds or the payment of a cash equivalent from those parties who had successfully redeemed the bonds.[18]

Considered therefore as transactions under the Constitution, the ordinance of secession, adopted by the convention and ratified by a majority of the citizens of Texas, and all the acts of her legislature intended to give effect to that ordinance, were absolutely null. They were utterly without operation in law. The obligations of the State, as a member of the Union, and of every citizen of the State, as a citizen of the United States, remained perfect and unimpaired. It certainly follows that the State did not cease to be a State, nor her citizens to be citizens of the Union. If this were otherwise, the State must have become foreign, and her citizens foreigners. The war must have ceased to be a war for the suppression of rebellion, and must have become a war for conquest and subjugation.[15]

Texas v White is an excellent pro-secessionist case. To wit:

1. The case was decided in 1869, nearly ten years after the various southern states had seceded. This means, of course, that at the time of secession, secession had not been considered by the courts and accordingly, it was, as of 1860 and 1861, perfectlly legal.

2. The decision actually endorses secession. In his decision, Chase acknowledges that the states seceded from the articles of confederation in order to establish the constitution. And this despite the fact that the articles of confederation, unlike the constitution, was explicitly declared to be a perpetual union.

3. Nowhere, and I mean nowhere, in the entirety of the decision, did Chase use language from the constitution which prohibits secession. That, of course, is because there is nothing, and I do mean nothing, in the constitution which prohibits secession.

meaning, succession is ILLEGAL, as written in the Constitution of the United States of America.

But again, even without that, TAKING UP ARMS AGAINST HER WHEN YOU WERE BORN UNDER HER FLAG IS TREASON ENOUGH!!

you can try and forget about that all you want, but that was kinda the ORIGINAL POINT OF THIS THREAD!

Today marks the 150th birthday of the original Stars & Bars.

Can't wait until September when Fairfax can celebrate the 150th of the battle flag. The marker at Main & Oak Streets, Farifax:

Inscription: During the First Battle of Manassas, amid the smoke of combat, troops found it difficult to distinguish between Union and Confederate flags. Generals P.G.T. Beauregard, Joseph E. Johnston and Quartermaster General William L. Cabell met near here in September 1861 and approved the first Confederate battle flag; a square red flag with blue diagonally crossed bars, and 12 stars. This pattern was adapted for use in other battle flags and was incorporated into the Confederate national flag in 1863. Beauregard's headquarters also hosted the 1 Oct. 1861 Fairfax Court House conference, during which Confederate President Davis and his generals plotted strategy.


And this is what makes America such a GREAT NATION! We allow these traitors to enjoy their Confederate flags, etc. We dont hang them like the dogs they are like they would in other countries! USA #1 :)

so legally, they agreed that this "union" was "perfect" - and since the Feds at the time of the Civil War had NOT TAKEN ANYTHING AWAY FROM THE SOUTHERN STATES, then this whole argument about lawful succession is complete bullshit.

If slavery had been outlawed against their rights, maybe you'd have and argument - but that's not the case.

The Supreme Court decided that succession is illegal in Texas vs. White - so the matter is legally closed

The Southern states had legal recourse to address their greivences against the Feds - and CHOOSE instead to attack with force against the United States in an act of treason, plain and simple.

whatever you say, Tully, whatever you say
in reality:

Section Ten sets LIMITS on states, reserving certain powers exclusively to the Congress. States are prohibited from coining money or making anything other than gold or silver coin legal tender for payment of debts and are prohibited from entering into treaties or alliances, although compacts with other states are allowed with the permission of Congress. States are also not permitted to lay duties, keep troops or warships in peacetime with Congressional approval, or engage in war unless actually invaded or in imminent danger. States also are barred from laying imposts or duties on imports or exports except for the fulfillment of state inspection laws, which may be revised by Congress, and any net revenue of such duties is remitted to the federal treasury. Finally, states, like congress, may not pass bills of attainder or ex post facto laws, nor grant any title of nobility.

You put them down by force if necessary!

Also, non of the southern leaders were prosecuted after the war for treason was because the nation had to be rebuilt with their help, Reconstruction.

Driving the south and its leaders into the ground after the war would've helped
no one. 1864 - time came to rebuild strong USA! A crippled and crumbling south
leaching off the north is no good for both. Prez. Andrew Johnson has southern
leaders take oath of allegiance and admit they were wrong in exchange for special
presidential pardons. Reconstruction Begins! First step in healing process.

"...And when these Articles were found to be inadequate to the exigencies of the country, the Constitution was ordained..."

This is exactly where Chase acknowledges the right of secession. In order to adopt the US Constitution, the states had to secede from the articles of confederation. And so they seceded, thereby setting a legal precedent in favor of secession. It is also why the constitution was not declared to be perpetual. More specifically, it was a huge embarassment to secede from the articles of confederation only seven years after they were "solemnly declared to be pepetual".

2. In 1821 Mexico seceded from Spain

3. In 1836 Texas seceded from Mexico

And yet in 1861 secession is suddenly treason. What rot.

North burned the south and now y'all are unfortunately still part of the United
States.

The south has a long proud legacy of being the brunt of many jokes; embarrassing
the rest of the united states on the international stage (I.E. I dont see anyone

Apparently it's beyond your grasp that it is not at all difficult to convey the idea of indissoluble unity more clearly than by the words "to form a more perfect union."

To wit: "to form an indissoluble union" or "to form a perpetual union."

However, the framers of the Constitution dropped the despotic "perpetual" language of the Articles of Confederation -- thus, indeed, forming a more perfect, non-perpetual union.

In particular, it should be noted, first of all, that the right to secession is rooted in the Declaration of Independence, which announced a lawful secession by the colonies from Great Britain based on the right of the people to alter or abolish their form of government.

Second, the union established by the Articles of Confederation, in spite of its exhortation of perpetuity, was terminated by secession.

The proposed Constitution provided that it would take effect upon ratification by nine states. On June 21, 1788, New Hampshire became the ninth state to ratify.

On that date, a new union was formed that seceded from the union formed by the Articles of Confederation -- this secession, however, was in express violation of Article XIII, which barred any alteration in the Articles save by *unanimous* consent.

Third, and most significantly, the exhortation of perpetuity found in the Articles was stricken from the text of the new Constitution.

Nor does the word “secession,” "secede," or any such word appear in the Constitution.

Thus the Constitution in no wise prohibits a state from leaving the union.

Nor does it authorize the federal government to forcibly retain a state that has seceded.

Fourth, when they originally ratified the U.S. Constitution, at least three states – New York, Virginia, and Rhode Island - included clauses asserting the right to secede from the Union at a future time.

Fifth, Federalist #45 states: “The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government are few and defined. Those which are to remain in the State governments are numerous and indefinite.” This principle was in turn enshrined in the 10th Amendment.

Thus Thomas Jefferson in his First Inaugural Address said, "If there be any among us who would wish to dissolve this Union, or to change its republican form, let them stand undisturbed as monuments of the safety with which error of opinion may be tolerated where reason is left to combat it."

Fifteen years later, after the New England Federalists threatened to secede, Jefferson said, "If any state in the Union will declare that it prefers separation ... to a continuance in the union .... I have no hesitation in saying, 'Let us separate.'"

Consequently, the Constitution's silence can in no way be understood as an implied abrogation or nullification of the right of secession, which was firmly established in 1776 (in our secession from Britain, and the grounds articulated in the Declaration of Independence) and 1787 (in the secession from the Articles of Confederation), in the ratifying conventions of at least three states party to the Constitution, and in Jefferson's remarks.

Lincoln's argument to the contrary, discussed in detail in my first post, fails. Chase's argument in Texas v. White - which you repeat no less than five times - merely regurgitates the "more perfect union" portion of Lincoln's argument, and thus similarly fails.

You are obviously a babbler - aka fool, nincompoop, imbecile, chowderhead, ignoramus and/or brain-dead - who is incapable of framing a clear rebuttal or counter-argument, and so resorts to lame jokes with multiple exclamation points.

If an intelligent interlocutor is willing to step in and pick up the flag,* as it were, I would be willing to continue this colloquy, but your craptastic cap-locked comments are unworthy of further response.

Here is what we need:

1. the section of the constitution which prohibits secession.


We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more "PERFECT UNION" establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence,[note 1] promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.


2. The language from Texas where Chase uses that language.

Texas Vs White:
Chase wrote that the original Union of the colonies had been made in reaction to some very real problems faced by the colonists. The first result of these circumstances was the creation of the Articles of Confederation which created a PERPETUAL UNION union between these states. The Constitution, when it was implemented, only STRENGTHENED and perfected this perpetual relationship.[14]
The Union of the States never was a purely artificial and arbitrary relation. It began among the Colonies, and grew out of common origin, mutual sympathies, kindred principles, similar interests, and geographical relations. It was confirmed and strengthened by the necessities of war, and received definite form and character and sanction from the Articles of Confederation. By these, the Union was solemnly declared to "BE PERPETUAL." And when these Articles were found to be inadequate to the exigencies of the country, the Constitution was ordained "TO FORM A MORE PERFECT UNION." IT IS DIFFICULT TO CONVEY THE IDEA OF INDISSOLUBLE UNITY MORE CLEARLY THAN BY THESE WORDS!!!!!. What can be indissoluble if a perpetual Union, made more perfect, is not?[15]

MLK,
While I do, of course, agree with most of what you write, there is nevertheless an issue I would like to take uo with you. You write;

"In particular, it should be noted, first of all, that the right to secession is rooted in the Declaration of Independence, which announced a lawful secession by the colonies from Great Britain based on the right of the people to alter or abolish their form of government."

The secession of 1776 was, according to British Constitutional law, quite illegal and accordingly, the founders were all regarded as traitors. The Declaration of Independence was a political document that merely advanced a noetic and and natural law metaphaphysic. Ultimately the right of revolution, as promulgated by the Declaration, had little or no impact on the positive law dynamic. It is therefore the case, that the secession of 1776 was, as I said originally, quite lawless.

Okay, so here's the deal. Admittedly, I have been jerking Gordo around, in part because it is positively hilarious to see how foaming-at-the-mouth hysterical he becomes. But on a more serious note, I have repeatedly challenged him to find a prohibition against secession in the Constitution(there is none). Gordo has, quite predictably, and as only that semi-literate miscreant could, frantically relied on Texas v White and, and hilariously, the PREAMBLE. Here's where it gets really fun; the preamble is merely a declaration and has no power. Here is the language of the Supreme Court, Justice Harlan for the majority:

"...The United States does not derive any of its substantive powers from the Preamble of the Constitution. It cannot exert any power to secure the declared objects of the Constitution unless, apart from the Preamble such power be found in, or can properly be implied from, some express delegation in the instrument..."

So we are back to square one:

Needed:

1. The section of the constitution that forbids secession

2. The language from Texas where Chase uses that section.

p.p.s I think you are right - that the succession of the Confederacy may have been allowed - BECAUSE THE UNITED STATES WAS GRACIOUS ENOUGH TO ALLOW IT!!!

During the four years of its existence, the Confederate States of America asserted its independence and appointed dozens of diplomatic agents abroad. The United States government, by contrast, regarded the Southern states as states in rebellion and refused any formal recognition of their status. Thus, even before the Battle of Fort Sumter, U.S. Secretary of State William H. Seward issued formal instructions in April 1861 to Charles Francis Adams, the newly appointed minister to Great Britain:

You will indulge in no expressions of harshness or disrespect, or even impatience concerning the seceding States, their agents, or their people. But you will, on the contrary, all the while remember that those States are now, as they always heretofore have been, and, notwithstanding their temporary self-delusion, they must always continue to be, equal and honored members of this Federal Union, and that their citizens throughout all political misunderstandings and alienations, still are and always must be our kindred and countrymen.[80]



This is why the United States is awesome - as I've said before - cause we wont hang you like the traitorous dogs you are :)

p.s. The government of the United States (The Union) regarded secession as legal, becasue it was founded on the right of secession and openly recognize the Confederacy when it blockaded, rather than closed its ports. Every European or other foreign nation officially declared neutrality, and gave full belligerent status to the CSA.

WELL (THE UNION) ALSO BROKE IT'S CONSTITUIONAL CONTRACT WITH THE STATES
IT GOVERNED SO IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT THE FUCK THEY RECOGNIZED AS LEGIT
OR NOT, BECAUSE THE STATES CHOSE THE PATH OF SUCESSION AS A RESPONSE.

Civil war was great, we got a chance to kill a lot of northern white boys thanks to Grant and those other northern generals. They were running out white boys so the enlisted the negros and we killed a lot them too, I love that movie Glory, if it wasn't for the northern officers killing the negros there almost wasn't enough left for us. Did Col Shaw make it back to Boston? Hell no.

We did win the reconstruction, the south rose again, it didn't take long for north to realize how Lincoln fucked them and saddled them with a bunch of worthless negros, even until today. Now they want give the negros back...we don't want them.

Hey Cleburn, your map is slightly off, I'm a country boy from the Empire State (New York) and its NOT just gay people, in fact, about 75% of New York State is country, mainly dairy farms, corn farms, and a shit load of deciduous trees. The other 25% is the shit-hole that a lot of southerners think all of New York State is. That 25% is New York CITY, at the very southern part of the state. Assholes come from this place, yes, and these are many of the New Yorker's that live in the South today, but there are a few that are normal (I'm one). Plus, God bless the Confederate Flag; it is a symbol of Rebellion, (What America was formed on), as well as a symbol of those fighting for what they believe in and protecting their home from the destruction of war. And I'm a rebel above anything else behind a proud American

If the South rises again, hopefully it is with the north as well; against the assholes in the government who are the real enemies to this country.

God Bless America, and God Bless the South!!!!

I'd have to agree with you about Wisconsin though, lol.

There has been a lot of confusion on this thread, which I shall now proceed to correct.

Where does the Constitution prohibit secession? There's certainly no express prohibition, and it's difficult to argue that a prohibition is implicit in the text.

The strongest argument for the latter was made by Lincoln in his inaugural address. http://lincoln.thefreelibrary.com/Abraham-Lincolns-First-Inaugural-Address

He argued that the purpose of the United States Constitution was "to form a more perfect union" than the Articles of Confederation ("AOC"), which were expressly perpetual ("the Articles of this Confederation shall be inviolably observed by every State, and the Union shall be perpetual." AOC XIII). Thus according to Lincoln, the Constitution, too, was perpetual.

The obvious counter to this, however, is that the elimination of the AOC's "perpetual" clause from the Constitution is clearly indicative of the framers' intention to obviate that provision.

In the same speech, Lincoln advances the further argument that even if the Constitution were a simple contract, it would require the agreement of all parties to rescind it, and therefore any ordinances of secession were "legally void".

But again, there is an obvious counter to this: in the case of a breach, a contract can be rescinded at will by the non-breaching party.

In August of 1856, BEFORE the Dred Scott decision, Lincoln had stated the following:

"Do you say that such restriction of slavery would be unconstitutional, and that some of the States would not submit to its enforcement?

I grant you that an unconstitutional act is not a law; but I do not ask and will not take your construction of the Constitution.

The Supreme Court of the United States is the tribunal to decide such a question, and we will submit to its decisions; and if you do also, there will be an end of the matter.

Will you? If not, who are the disunionists -- you or we?"

However, AFTER the Supreme Court rendered its decision, the northern states REFUSED to submit to it; northern legislatures passed laws that said no person in the state should be considered as property, and set free every slave who came into the state.

Therefore, by Lincoln's own word, the northern states - by refusing to submit to the decision of the Supreme Court - breached the Constitutional "contract," thus empowering the non-breaching southern states to rescind it.

We may regret that the end of slavery could not have been accomplished without the sacrifice of so many hundreds of thousands. Still, we cannot give credence to Lincoln's - or Gordon Blvd's - inane ramblings by labeling them an enlightened interpretation of Constitutional law.
