    Doesn’t matter. No one reads them. I constantly run into people that say the Civil War wasn’t about slavery. Then I ask them to read the Ordinances of Secession from each state that wrote one up and count the number of times slavery is mentioned as the reason they were splitting. Of course I never hear from them again because either they can’t admit they never read them or can’t admit after reading them that slavery was explicitly the cause listed in every single one.

    For the record the South Carolina one has slavery mentioned 12 times.

    So it will sit there and collect dust because no one is going read it.
