That was US territory.
Read the fucking Constitution.
which constitution?
USA or CSA ?![]()
The US one.
The CSA was in violation of the US constitution. Which means they were treasonous traitors.
Nope. Nowhere does the Constitution define secession as treason. In fact, it defines treason this way: "Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them." Note the plural "them." In other words, anyone who makes war against any state of the union is committing treason. Lincoln made war on the Confederate states, so he committed treason, not the Confederacy.
