It’s the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine.
What would FR have to do with it?
It’s not the SHTF scenario I worry about so much...it’s the slow, almost silent death of a culture, of a nation, of a way of thinking. That’s how most nations, empires end....they just sort of crumble slowly from within.
That’s about it unless Putin gets Texas to seceed.
[ There is still the chance that a Convention of States can bring the government under control.
Question: If all three branches of the federal government refuse to obey the existing Constitution, why would they obey an amended Constitution? ]
At this point the real reason for Article V is to place clear concise limits on the Fed-Gov complex that if they Ignore it completely, this creates a situation where the states are fully justified in either banding together and sending troops to DC in order to dismantle the machine by force or they are fully justified in banding together and just leaving the Union. That way they can point tot he Constitution and point toe h blatant violations the same way the colonists could point out the violations that King George III did.

Leonard Bernstein!
why do you always have to say something stupid?
You are probably very annoying to be around in person
me too
If I ever get out of this place, gonna give it all away to a registered charity.
I’m not even American, but the way your country has been heading is getting to me as well. I think it’s seeing how stupid people have become. Not only stupid, but immoral and disgusting. I don’t watch the news like I used to, I only check on of FR, Drudge and Breitbart. Even then, I am so sick from what I hear, I just want to move to the farm, help my daughter and son-in-law raise their 3 kids and help out as much as I can.
Before you go, who would be your ideal ticket for 2016?
With ya.
Great, one less looney of FR.
