fucking marshall island niggers, I hate those niggers
I love how AFTER the civil war secession was illegal. Not before, not during, AFTER.
The U.S. Constitution did not explicitly mention whether a state could leave or not. The Confederacy was wrong because it lost.I love how AFTER the civil war secession was illegal. Not before, not during, AFTER.
Which then begs the question, was the south right all along?
Well yeah I'm not gonna say it was right. Like no shit the Confederacy was wrong. I'm more talking legally.
The legal matter was settled by guns.
You know that Israel's economy globally ranks 25th in nominal GDP, 3rd in macroeconomic performance according to The Economist, and roughly 14th to 21st in nominal GDP per capita...right?
I have two of those niggers in my back yard RIGHT NOW! COFA doesn't want you to know but you can just take them. They're free.
Specifically looking at the matter on a legal level, there were two camps, one believed the Constitution was a contract among independent states and the other believed that the union was perpetual. To back up their arguments, the former used early state ratification documents referencing sovereignty and the latter would bring up the Perpetual Union brought up in the Articles of Confederation.
one of the reasons the leadership of the confederacy (specifically Jefferson Davis) were not charged was because the Johnson administration feared that SCOTUS would rule against the federal government on the matter of secession, so they did not chance it.
Isn't the ginger the "comedian" from YouTube who turned on Trump over Iran?
I kind of just accepted that fate after the muslims swarmed in.
So what were they charged for? Murder? Terrorism? Can't be treason right?
You know what decade came after the 1920s? The 1930s. (also known as the HITLER DECADE!!!!!!) Fuckin Nazi.
Nah, nigga. We ride till we're dead. If you're an American, you better give me a real sneed when I pop up over the hill.
I like how the platform sports the most successful ideas that actually secured American economic and cultural health during the Great Depression, shit that eve historic economists agree is basic goddamn sense.
He was charged with treason in 1866, but a lot of factors, like Andrew Johnson's impeachment, led to his actual trial being delayed. On Christmas in 1868, they blanket pardoned all the Confederates, but it seems like they still considered trying him until February 1869, then dropped the charges.
Everything was codified in federal law to allow a province to secede in order to appease Quebec and simultaneously define terms that guarantee Quebec would never vote to separate. Stuff like paying back 10 years of federal government payments would utterly destroy Quebec.
It cannot be understated that if Andrew Johnson hadn't been Abraham Lincoln's Vice President then post-Civil War America would've been very different. Hannibal Hamlin, Johnson's predecessor, was a committed ally to the Radical Republicans and they were not so fond of the idea of being lenient to former Confederates.
