The Terror of Reconstruction

by Lew Rockwell, Lew Rockwell:

In last week’s column, I warned that brain-dead Biden and his gang of neocon controllers want to use illegal immigrants to join the armed forces in order to suppress patriotic rebellion against their plans. If we want to know what suppression would be like, we have a good precedent. After the War Between the States, the Union’s “Reconstruction” tyrannized the South.

Under the Constitution, the states are supposed to retain all powers not delegated to the central government. The fact that the South lost the war did not change that. The states were back in the Union, even though they didn’t want to be. But they hadn’t lost their rights under the Constitution.
