South Carolina seceded, and the first shots fired were by rebel forces at Ft Sumter, so how does that make the Civil War (as most people refer to it) a war of Northern Aggression (led by those damn Republicans).

If you pre-emptively seceded before Lincoln was even inaugurated, encouraged other people to join you in open rebellion, fired the first shot, and then refused his personal offer to send representatives back to Congress to work out your disputes like sane adults, calling it a War of Northern AGGRESSION is simply "Mything the Point!"

Sounds like you wish slavery was still around...damn Northern aggressors.
