don't attend the "civil war"

are you aware that sending "supplies" to Ft Sumpter was negotiated as part of this ?
Never was.
The people there were running low since supplies were stopped once SC ceased being part of the US.
US troops should've withdrawn instead of trying to maintain a military base in a foreign country against that country's will.
It was actually negotiated twice as the first time they tried sending troops as well. CSA were not ones to starve the guys so they agreed to a second try.
Never was.
Lincoln intentionally invaded a second time.
Nope. Just once.
Abe not so honest after all it seems.
He was in many respects. He knew that slavery was theft. It is indeed one of the worst forms of socialism.
He openly declared his intention to force the States of the CSA to rejoin the USA. He openly declared his intention to end slavery.

The disaster came because of the way he did it.
 
South Carolina never "ceased being part of the US," and the rest of your claim is equally specious.
Yes it did. It became a State of the CSA.
In a letter delivered January 31, 1861, South Carolina Governor Pickens demanded of President Buchanan that he surrender Fort Sumter because "I regard that possession is not consistent with the dignity or safety of the State of South Carolina."

Attempts to resupply and reinforce the garrison were repulsed on January 9, 1861 when the first shots of the war, fired by cadets from the Citadel, prevented the steamer Star of the West, hired to transport troops and supplies to Fort Sumter, from completing the task.

After realizing that Anderson's command would run out of food by April 15, 1861, President Lincoln ordered a fleet of ships, under the command of Gustavus V. Fox, to attempt entry into Charleston Harbor and supply Fort Sumter. The ships assigned were the steam sloops-of-war USS Pawnee and USS Powhatan, transporting motorized launches and about 300 sailors (secretly removed from the Charleston fleet to join in the forced reinforcement of Fort Pickens, Pensacola, FL), armed screw steamer USS Pocahontas, Revenue Cutter USRC Harriet Lane, steamer Baltic transporting about 200 troops, composed of companies C and D of the 2nd U.S. Artillery, and three hired tugboats with added protection against small arms fire to be used to tow troop and supply barges directly to Fort Sumter.

The first to arrive was Harriet Lane, the evening of April 11, 1861. On Friday, April 12, 1861, at 4:30 a.m., rebel batteries opened fire on the fort, firing for 34 straight hours. On Saturday, April 13, the fort was surrendered and evacuated.

Oh come on now.
You NEVER (that I have yet seen) post ANY source to backup ANYTHING you claim.
So you have NOTHING to bitch about here.

And your wikipedia excuse is nonsense - and surely you know that.

If wikipedia has a quote and a link to a corroborated source.
Then it IS - in that case - an authoritative source.
