I believe you misunderstand my statement. We can by agreement with our entry into the United States, divide into 3 states, but we can secede as a separate issue.

Secession occurred once because of the federal government running roughshod over the states, and there is no reason that it can’t happen again.

Peacefully. It is not necessary to have bloodshed because the citizens of one or more states says the h**l with the Federal Government, and choose liberty and freedom over the induced serfdom that becomes more onerous daily.

Actually it's five states, but that isn't going to happen and neither is secession.
