I thought that Missouri's ordinance of Secession might be interesting. It also, mentions nothing about slaves or the owning thereof. I don't refer to the "Civil War" as such., I call it the Secessionist War, which it was. Niggers and nigger lovers will of course, insist that this is all lies and obfuscation and try to deny what was actually said by people at that time. But it illustrates the importance of studying real history and how it is the Nigger lovers who are "ignorant", mis educated and are liars and obfuscatory about historical facts. President Lincoln only issued The Emancipation Proclamation in the hopes of fomenting a slave rebellion that would weaken the Confederacy from within. A great many Union soldiers at the time, both officers and enlisted, made the comment, and it is very clear in their statements to the press and personal correspondences, That if the war were about niggers, they would have yielded up their arms and returned home. The "Civil War" is just the most glaring example of how our history has and is being distorted to promote niggerism.

Here it is. Please take note of the conspicuous absence of any reference whatever, to niggers;

An act declaring the political ties heretofore existing between the State of Missouri and the United States of America dissolved.

Whereas the Government of the United States, in the possession and under the control of a sectional party, has wantonly violated the compact originally made between said Government and the State of Missouri, by invading with hostile armies the soil of the State, attacking and making prisoners the militia while legally assembled under the State laws, forcibly occupying the State capitol, and attempting through the instrumentality of domestic traitors to usurp the State government, seizing and destroying private property, and murdering with fiendish malignity peaceable citizens, men, women, and children, together with other acts of atrocity, indicating a deep-settled hostility toward the people of Missouri and their institutions; and

Whereas the present Administration of the Government of the United States has utterly ignored the Constitution, subverted the Government as constructed and intended by its makers, and established a despotic and arbitrary power instead thereof: Now, therefore,

Be it enacted by the general assembly of the State of Missouri, That all political ties of every character new existing between the Government of the United States of America and the people and government of the State of Missouri are hereby dissolved, and the State of Missouri, resuming the sovereignty granted by compact to the said United States upon admission of said State into the Federal Union, does again take its place as a free and independent republic amongst the nations of the earth.

This act to take effect and be in force from and after its passage.

Approved by the Missouri Legislature on October 31, 1861.
