Ping!
Thanks for the ping.
I live in Houston - there is an all-out shooting war raging in the 1000-mile stretch of land from here to the embassy in Mexico City, and the feral goobermint has not noticed.
The border is a myth.
In historical terms, we are living in the era of war-lords, for example as in the Hundred-Years’ war after the Battle of Potiers. Maybe a better analogy is in the time of the Russian Civil War, when the Red/Petrograd/Moscow government only controlled part of the territory, while White Russians held Omsk and Rostove...meanwhile Free Territory Anarchist Makhno and Nikiforova held Ukraine, the Cossacks held some areas, also Urgen Sternberg the Bloody White Baron dictator of Mongolia who robbed the White’s supply trains and dominated the drug trade.
This is what happens when borders and national culture disintegrate. It is a civil war already.
Thanks for pinging your list SwinneySwitch.
I am retired.
I did live in California all my life.
My whole family moved away from California.
We did not move to Arizona, either.
