    They didn’t just secede, they started shooting. If the south had not attacked the US Army, I don’t know if the USA would have had the political will for the necessary sacrifices.

    I wonder if that was a kind of déformation professionnelle. They were slavers and used to force their will through immediate, massive, brutal violence.
