The Confederacy was different. It wasn't a couple hour attempted takeover, it was years long, a separate, if traitorous, country.

I've been seeing similar posts here, and all of you who support this, need to think really hard. If we start stripping citizenship, it will happen to us down the road.

There's a reason we like to think of this country as a nation of laws.
