This is Why The BLM Wants Cliven Bundy’s Ranch Gone (Video)

There were a variety of issues that led to the Civil War, but they all pretty much centered on this theme. The southern states always maintained the position that a strong federal government was a threat to local norms and traditions. This came from the colonial days and the debates that took place with the debate over the U.S. Constitution. Ultimately, the southern states, being less populated, were concerned that the more highly populated northern states would use their influence to force their will on the south through federal influences. The issue of slavery became one of the key issues, not because the northern population in general wanted to do something about it, but because it was the most divisive issue of the time. The federal government began a series of policy changes that the south did not agree with regarding taxation and trade. The southern states, being threatened by this, began to withdraw from the union on the grounds that they had the right to do so under the Constitution and Declaration of Independence. The slavery issue came to the forefront later, and many in the south were discussing the possibility of freeing the slaves on their own. Basically, the south believed that the states should have more control over their own destiny while northern states believed the federal government should have more power to deal with state level issues.

Put in this way, this fight then ties in with all the other things states are doing to defy the feds in D.C. such as nullifying gun control laws or Obamacare as well as gun owners in NY and CT not registering their guns.  It maybe only political and non-violent, so far, but America is at war with itself.  There is a sense of open rebellion inmany states and groups of people against D.C. which I expect to persist into Hillary Clinton’s presidency because she is a Democrat and because she is tied to Benghazi.  Continue to expect defiance and more stand offs.
