Could Minnesota break away from the United States due to a violent overthrow of the state government?

could the Somalis in Minnesota resort/revert to their tribal beliefs and conduct a coup of the Minnesota state government?

Why would they need to, the Minnesota government is already on theor side.

I think if they even tried to do that, the citizens likely mightt rise up to defend themselves, and that would give them justification under the law as well.

Without question the Federal Government would react.

Is it possible to remove their status as a state? Make it the territory of Minnesota and appoint a territorial governor. The Army could then ride in and clean house.

I will defend with my life the right for any state to secede.

I think they won’t.

The foundation of their fraud is their existence as a US state. WE — YOU AND I — fund them; they can’t live without us.

“Is it possible to remove their status as a state?”

That’s a much better idea than secession.

We really don’t need those people on our border, supported by a separate government.

Somali ovberthrowing a state government is not succession. So, your statement is way off the mark. Apparently, you did not understand what his restless sleep led him to wonder if Somali had the power to overthrow the State of Minnesota’s state government.

“Minnesota is a good sized state that is a sea of Red Americans with islands of Blue.”

Minnesota is next door to us (ND) and we occasionally travel there. The state was homesteaded by similar peoples such as the Nordics, Germans, Russians etc. Lots of blonde blue eyed people there that are quite devoted to the American way. It’s a shame to see our neighbors get sucked into the communist sewer by importing third world trash.

So yes, I fully agree with your comment: “Those islands won’t survive long in a Rebellion.”

Not sure what should be done with Minnesota but rest assured that there are many decent Republicans there. Other states with a lot of Republicans are having similar problems.

Do they even know who is a refugee or just an ordinary troublemaker?

Obviously there are not nearly enough “decent Republicans” in Minnesota.

Minnesota won’t secede...there’s too much federal money to be had.

Even though Minnesota is a loony bin, if they seceded then I am on their side because to me, the issue of secession supercedes all others.
