California was talking secession a couple of years ago.

And Hawaii has secessionists that Barack Obama supports.

I seem to recall that this subject came up once before in our country's history; I don't recall exactly when, but if I remember correctly, the answer was a pretty emphatic "no" to the idea.

Let me think about it for a few minutes; I'm sure it will all come to me.

Secession won’t work unless all leftists are banned from setting foot in the new free world.

A peaceful negotiation - a mutually agreed divination of the country is NOT succession.

They hate us as much as we hate them... and the differences are irreconcilable...

Both sides would be happier in their own countries.

From what?

How? By states? By counties? By cities? By districts within cities? By political affiliation? By ideological persuasion?

Then what? How do you keep the leftists from moving in anyway? That is what they have done in CO, ID, NM, etc. Barriers? Walls around states?

Passports to get from MO to IL, etc.?

These secessionist entities need a lot more planning and explanations of who they are, what they intend, and how they expect to get there.

It needs to done by counties in the Blue states - I live in WA, in a really purple county. Most of the counties here are Red.

Thirteen replies, and not a one mentions anything about secession being a "Republican" thing.

Just hypothetically speaking, mind you.

The left divided Americ (all why screaming about how divisive the repubs were), and so now I say, let’s go all the way. Break free from the tyranny of the left once and for all, and make sure that any radical liberals that try to infiltrate be sent packing over to some rathole liberal state.

Keep the new liberated Trump republican states as pure as possible. And stop all tis “fair and balanced” crap once and for all, since this is what the left have driven this nation into.

Our nation devolved into the cesspool of liberalism because of compromise which w a s only ever a one way street. Little by little we allowed the left to chip and hammer away at will the ideals and morals that our nation was built on. We tucked tail and cowered everytime a liberal screamed or stomped their foot. That needs to stop. We need SC judges that will uphold the rule of law and uphold our sovereign assigned natural rights ✅ , and we need a system to boot them from their position if they ever fail to uphold constitutional law and if they try to remove, even slightly, our natural sovereign rights. No more free lifetime rides. They fail to objectively rule, then they can look for other employment after a trial to determine their fitness or lack thereof for judicial work.

Oh and make gun ownership mandatory as a deterrent to anyone who thin KS they can steamroll the people. And. MAke it known that the government works FOT THE PEOPLE, not the other way around

In otherwords, we need to create a new nation of God fearing citizens that respect the rule of law, and respect sovereign rights, just like we used to have, only untainted by judicial judges who think they can legislate from the b3nch

Yeah yeah. I know, just a pipe dream

I generally don’t support secession because the communists we want to let depart from us peacefully simply won’t. The moment the new borders are set the commies will infiltrate begin their subversive attack on the new country. It simply won’t work.

I see an endless parade of “Republicans” saying they were planning to challenge the election results “But the riot”.

This only makes me these spineless feckless chumps even more.

So please be clear when you use the term “Republican”.

We may not secede but merely “Shrug”. The epitome of non violent non compliance.

See you at the gulch

I would be satisfied if Republicans simply wanted to succeed and acted accordingly.

No to secession. Yes to ignoring the law.

Basically we need to operate independently inside our own borders without leaving. Ignore and refuse to extradite/enforce any corrupt laws passed by courts, federal agencies, or Congress.

Become a sanctuary for those escaping repression in liberal States exactly the same way slaves escaped to Free Soil pre-civil war. Tell them their law doesn’t apply here.

The path to freedom, if we must, is first thru the establishment of a new ship of state - by way of forming a new, the Third Continental Congress.

- - -

At all times, even in revolution, the construction of our forefathers’ efforts was to ensure lawful process and exercise authority under the rule of law. For example, contrary to the hysteria perpetrated in the “liberal press,” about the militia, the colonial militia were at all times answerable to civilian authority, in a chain of command reaching down from the Continental Congress and down from the Provincial Congresses of the colonies, often times through what were called Committees of Safety.

There is much in our American Heritage, in which we must seek to know and understand the construction of our country and Constitution, so that where we are going, we will ensure that we do so by a lawful process, and always keep upon the path toward our principle objectives: to restore our Constitution and rule of law over government ... instead of embarking upon a sea of rage because of our current unhappiness.

It will take all of our self-discipline, to not wander from the path. The secret of George Washington’s success, according to him, when asked by a correspondent, after the President’s retirement from public office, was this: “...the straight line.”

Sir Winston Churchill, upon the occasion of a visit to an American university after World War II, and feeling the infirmities of his age, was asked to give a speech; but he had to wait out a lengthy introduction.

At the end of this praise, Churchill stood up and approached the podium; and then said, no more than, “Never, never, never, never quit.”

You must not let go of our democratic-republic [principles]. You must not be “rattled.”

The Founding Fathers and Framers set up a structure for a government in waiting, the Continental Congress. During that decade prior to Lexington and Concord, the colonialists absorbed the principles of law, some of which were discussed in the “letters of correspondence.” There is much that the people knew -— enough people -— which is what will be needed if we are to win.

- - -

Edmund Burke said, in his March 22, 1775 “Speech on Conciliation With America”:

Permit me, Sir, to add another circumstance in our colonies, which contributes no mean part towards the growth and effect of this untractable spirit. I mean their education. In no country perhaps in the world is the law so general a study...

This study renders men acute, inquisitive, dexterous, prompt in attack, ready in defence, full of resources. In other countries, the people, more simple and of a less mercurial cast, judge of an ill principle in government only by an actual grievance; here they anticipate the evil, and judge of the pressure of the grievance by the badness of the principle. They augur misgovernment at a distance; and snuff the approach of tyranny in every tainted breeze.

- - -

The Third Continental Congress

To consist of 2 representatives from each state.

Those 2 (per state) are chosen by the RED CONSERVATIVE COUNTIES of their respective states.

The RED Conservative counties of each state, to have themselves chosen 2 representative - who convene with the other sets of 2 representives at the state level.

*That* state level convention for the purpose of choosing the 2 representives, who then proceed to the meeting of the Third Continental Congress.

Hi.

IMHO secession is not a good move. Didn’t work last time.

Then again, this isn’t 1861.
