DOWN WITH THE UNION!!!

>They had their own sovereignty

Go away Scalia. I thought you were dead.

>the South had legitimate sovereignty over the Union they were previously a part of
>because they said so

I don't think you know how sovereignty works.

You would only live in the south by choice pre-1950s if you were a complete retard or owned a Plantation. It gets so fucking hot and humid in the south that living there makes you go fucking crazy.

Which is why the South is today composed of business owners (sociopaths), the religious (dumbfucks), and blacks (ancestors brought there against their will).

The only reason the south is urbanized today is because of air conditioning. Period.

I live in the midwest and I fucking love humid ass southern climate. Shame there's no jobs there outside of maybe Atlanta, otherwise I'd move there already.

It's you that don't know. It's the people, not a State, who owns the sovereignty. The people give it to their representatives, who use it. The representatives of the people of the South were the ones who, while holding the sovereignty of the people of the South, choose it's independence.

So it should be valid for someone to build a drug lab in their house as long as they state their house is it's own sovereign nation?

Federal sovereignty trumps state sovereignty. And the people didn't give a shit about the Civil War. It was entirely manufacturered by the southern aristocrats.

The civil war was manufactured by the North.

Explain what a red state is.

Red = republican voting.
