Reply to comment by wakko666 in Constitutional Convention ballot question by niateratez

This is the thing I think a lot of the pro-secession crowd seems to forget. The United States dealt with the question of secession once before, and whether or not you like the answer, it was determined that secession is not allowed unless you overcome the might of the military, the Federal government, and the rest of the States.

Exactly.

It's funny how so many of those folks don't bother to learn any parts of this nation's history that happened after 1790.

It's almost like they're trying to return to a time when it was acceptable for certain humans to only count as three-fifths of a citizen.
