Not surprising at all.
And,unlike you,I see the spectacle of the 1st Infantry Division and the 8th Air Force attacking,say,Nebraska after their secession vote to be a huge part of the reason why the Royal Canadian Air Force wouldn't have attacked Quebec if they had declared independence or why the Royal Navy won't attack Scotland if they do so next year.
There you go again, mixing different forms of government and different countries. It might help if you stayed in one.
And really, if Nebraska decided to secede and we bombarded Offut into surrender on our way out the door thus starting a war then we shouldn't be surprised if the 1st Infantry or a B-2 appear. Now should we?
Since I've realized that the "United States of America" has passed the point of no return that's been my most fervent dream.I hope to someday soon reside peacefully in the "Respectable States of America" while you,OTOH,are willing to kill me and those like me in the name of the now failed state called,by many,the "Debauched States of America".As we face off against each other in the battle to create the "RSA" I'll be beside many fine people and you'll be fighting alongside Bill Ayers,the descendants of Saul Alinsky and Jerimiah Wright (among other "luminaries").
