So true. Though I feel that the southern States are demonized. What is never thoroughly analyzed is whether or not secession is legal. It is just assumed not to have been since "south was evil and wanted to prolong slavery" etc. Those are not valid arguments. Secession is a stand alone issue having nothing to do with motives for secession.
