In the south, the Civil War is sometimes referred to as the War of Northern Aggresion.

I think I heard that for the first time about 9 yrs ago by someone telling me, being from Philly, that he was still pissed about that war.
Me: What war?
Him: The war of northern agression

I have also heard it was a states rights issue, but have not heard a compelling arguement against it being the right to own slaves, that was what was most important.
