"Certain Freepers will tell you that our federal government would send the full force of our military against any U.S. state that did the same thing.

It's nuts, I know, but such is the depth of paranoia around here."

Not like the Federal Government hasn't done it before. That little misunderstanding from 1861 to 1865...

This ain't 1861 my friend. Americans, nor their government, are about to go to war and kill thousands of their fellow countrymen (and relatives) over a purely political act like secession.

Are you kidding me? The left would rejoice if Texas chose to leave the union.
