When, if ever, a state(s) actually decides to secede legally by an act of the state legislature and the approval of the Governor of that state(s), I will go there and join their military. If your empire declares war on this state(s) then you will be the enemy and I would not hesitate to follow the orders of an officer of non-commissioned officer of the Army of that State(s)to cause harm or destruction to NJ, DC or anything else in enemy territory.
Until that time, if ever, I will remain a tax paying subject of the Federal Empire. Hopefully the republic can be restored without war, but you Yankees have a terrible track record. Do I make myself clear.
