"Secession belongs to a different class of remedies. It is to be justified upon the basis that the States are Sovereign. There was a time when none denied it. I hope the time may come again, when a better comprehension of the theory of our Government, and the inalienable rights of the people of the States, will prevent any one from denying that each State is a Sovereign, and thus may reclaim the grants which it has made to any agent whomsoever."

President Jefferson Davis.

Pvt. Bailey Rice, VA 2nd Regiment; Revolutionary War

The man lies in eternal repose in a vale on the West Virginia side of the Ohio River. He gave blood, sweat, and toil to the formation of this Constitutional Republic. His blood is my blood, and I aim to make his sacrifices STICK; to act in all ways humanly possible to preserve the Union he risked everything to pull from the white-hot forge of war.

I do not dismiss secession; I simply do not prefer it as the FIRST best consideration. It beats resorting to the cartridge box by a long shot, but there is one far better option still, and I would, since The Founders established its viability, that we not permit the one option they coded into The Constitution to be the one option we leave untried.

The globalist/leftist cabal has done everything within their power to destroy state sovereignty for the same reason that they are obsessed with destroying American superiority and bringing us down to the same level as the average s##thole country: They must make sure that when they fully implement their one-world government, there will be nowhere to run to escape it. Whether ensuring that American citizens can’t move to a more conservative state to escape an out of control federal government, or making it impossible for citizens of other countries to escape globalist tyranny by fleeing to a relatively free U.S., the goal is exactly the same.
