Correct, this notion that leaving the union means violent civil war is one of the dumbest mindsets to have. However, public schools have lied about mostly everything else, so why not lie about lincoln and the civil war. People also have this backwards thinking in which if a state seceedes or even region leaves, that somehow they cant work with neighboring states or form defense alliances. Insanity. The country is too big to be ruled by DC. There were 13 colonies when we were created and even after 1803 we still had 1/3 of the country's land not owned by the US yet.
