South Carolina:

1860 - first state to secede from the Union due to an overreaching federal government
("But, but. but, slavery" remarks certain to be incoming)

2015 - first state to kowtow to those seeking to erase our nation's history

You make a good point, 'Tide.

If only we had a way to figure out what was on their minds at the time...

Oh, I bet there is. A number of states wrote out there articles of secession and listed the main problems as they saw it in their own words.

That way history would be unambiguous about the root causes. But these articles aren't discussed now. Ever wonder why?

Research their own words and people might be surprised.
