Count me as being part of that 25%.But I don’t want *my* state to secede...I want the red states to do so at which point I’ll move to NC,GA,TN or maybe IN.
I’m in! We need Texas to secede and then pull the rest of the south and Midwest with it.
The successionist movement in Scotland is largely leftist
and socialist in nature.
If it was an independence movement based on culture , I would be in favor, but the independence movement is actually about equal division of material benefits among the people , no real capitalist or entrepreneurial ideology.
The very strengths of Scotland , her traditions, military
and innovations are not the basis for the current separation. The basis is more of the UK pie.
I would not support Scotlands independence to put her into the hands of leftists, but a Scottish revival of culture and Scots gaelic as a basis of a conservative Scottish independence movement? That I would support as a Scottish American.
The problem remains—the big city. Big cities everywhere are the cancers. How do you fix that after secession?
i’d not mind. but i’d rather force the socialists to leave and restore what the country is supposed to be.
Nn, but the 25 percent illegal aliens polled definitely did.
Same thing helped the separation push in Scotland, but instead of a close race, the voters in Scotland (most of whom are Scottish, but Glasgow is lousy with “Asians”) rejected it by a margin of ten percent.
wall them off. end welfare. offer one way rides to nearest socialist state.
Yep. Well said.
Well said.
What I love about this country is we don’t have walls.....you aint gotta secede, just walk the heck out! This land aint your land, this land is my land. Grant and Sherman forever!
The American colonial revolution took place with only 24% of the population being in favor of independence from England. As the war was going badly, that number remained steady. Once it looked like we might win the war, the public shifted towards independence, with only a slight majority.
How about ejecting a few states?
The Wall Street Journal published an article about Russian professor and political scientist, Igor Panarin, who 1st predicted in 1998 that the U.S. would probably disintegrate into 6 parts by JUL 2010. "There's a 55-45% chance right now that disintegration will occur. One could rejoice in that process ... .But if we're talking reasonably, it's not the best scenario -- for Russia." Though Russia would become more powerful on the global stage, he said, its economy would suffer because it currently depended heavily on the dollar and on trade with the U.S. He forecasted financial and demographic changes within the U.S. which would provoke a political crisis in which the wealthier states would withhold funds from the federal government. These wealthier states would effectively secede from the Union, leading to social unrest, civil war, national division, and intervention of foreign powers. The break-up would also lead to mass immigration, economic decline, and moral degradation.
one big problem .
private citizens are heavily armed .
i would love to see Mexico or Europe try to invade Louisiana or Alabama or Arkansas or Tennessee or Georgia.or Oklahoma .
.
Gerrymander them out of the new union.
Count me in if the 25% are all Dims. They can go create their own utopia anywhere else.
Brilliant idea dude. So, who gets the Navy, the Coast Guard, the Marine Corps, Army and Air Force?
If you don’t pay taxes you do not vote that year. If you take public assistance you don’t vote for 25 years.
If necessary, you kill the enemy until they agree to these terms.
I am one of them-afterall our nation was founded upon respect for the natural rights that God has given each one of us and the reality that a sovereign people has to give consent to whom is governing over them (and therefore ARE allowed to change political, even governments when necessary and wished for by the same people~)!~
