If in your hearts of hearts you think FedGov™ would/could ever pull the nuclear trigger on a city like Dallas, then you should be leading the charge for the dissolution if the USA....

"...selective reduction of the individuals GIVING THE ORDERS and their immediate subordinates in the command structure would cause the oppression insurrection to fizzle out like a badly struck match.

There, fixed it for you.

If you can’t win an election, you can’t win a war.

This is fundamentally untrue.

The moocher class, and the other assorted liberal groups are incapable of fighting a war.

Their power comes from how much everyone respects the vote.

I would suggest the right has far more physical power and could easily stand up and make the left's life miserable enough to leave us alone

It is the endless cowardice of the right which is our Achilles's heel.

I would argue that the time for secession has passed. The only way left open is rebellion and revolution. And we are talking French Revolution, NOT American Revolution.

I don’t claim to have graduated from West Point. I claim to have attended. I also attended Rensselaer Polytechnic and SW Missouri State and Cal Tech (Center for Technology and Management Education).

Evangel College was the name of Evangel University when I attended and graduated, in Springfield. I also graduated from Univ of Arizona and Cal State Fresno.

So nice that you care.

So what is your plan to fund the new Louisiana Sovereign government? How many people in New Orleans do you plan to shoot so they don’t vote benefits for themselves? What will you do to keep the Mississippi from flooding?

How do you intend to protect your people? How do you plan to keep people from the other states out? How do you plan to pay off your share of the national debt? How do you imagine that your agricultural products will sell in the US after they suffer a tax to come across the border?

funny how the U.S. ran on this continent with hardly any taxes until the income tax of the 20th century. People prospered on the North American continent from 1600 to 1900 with almost no government and almost no taxes(especially as compared to now).the U.S. grew into a world power in the 1800’s with very limited small govenrmnent and very low taxes.

Yeah your socialist plan is working so well huh ? what are your socialist programs being funded with , massive exploding debt. how will that work out. collapse that's how. Also you are taxing us at almost 60% of our incomes.

we don't need huge taxes , nor government. but you think we do .why do you trust government? you don't think this huge govenrment is a threat to our freedom and is oppressing us . why are you so happy being a slave of the government and want us enslaves also .who are we to you . leave us alone and go be a slave to the federal government in your socialist utopia

No, just the dissolution of the current anti-constitutional regime, and their progressive enablers in (what used to be) our own party.

A remunerative education, that continued over the years, obtained through persistance, ROTC scholarships, Vietnam Era GI Bill, and company compensations.

Jack Northrop spelled his last name with two “o”s There is a Northrup company but it is different.

Then you don’t have a need for an insurrection. Rather you have a need to win elections.

In that you have my support.

we have a right to secede and you don't worry about us ok just worry about your stupid government blowing up the debt and oppressing you. we can take care ourselves just as people did on this continent from 1600 to 1900 and at other time and don't need socialism nor your oppressive government to take care of us as you believe it to be the case (cause you are a collectivist/statist/socialist you think big government is the solution to every problem

Then you need to win elections to reduce the tax rates.

One aspect of pre-income tax funding of the government was their selling of western lands. Doing that supplemented the government’s income until the closing of the frontier, acting in lieu of taxes.

One Fredrick Jackson Turner wrote about that, and how it would change America.

That may be true. But can the federal government get away with large-scale killing of people in the television, mobile phone, and youtube era?

They got away with gunning down an unarmed mentally ill woman with a small child in broad daylight in the nations capital...they were even congratulated by lawmakers.

All the vilification of the "tea party" is really vilification of those who would "hurt" the government. I don't think anyone would bat an eye if the White House said to kill conservatives...not in those words maybe...but framed the right way.

Oh, and I am not a socialist. They are not my plans.

They were put in place in large part by Democrats from the Southern states.
