The Secessionists

Lindsey Graham’s challenger in the South Carolina Republican primary gave a speech in the state Senate on Wednesday in which he likened the American Civil War to a domestic dispute that escalated to murder.
…
“This was a war,” he continued, in which “basically folks in the North decided that — kind of like a marriage, the South had decided it wanted to separate, and the North said, ‘We’re not going to separate, and if you want to separate, we're just going to kill you."

That's the way they see it in the confederate states of Republican Dumbfuckistan.

The civil war was about southern conservatives taking up arms against the United States in order to preserve slavery.   They obviously haven't gotten over it.
