“: We fought one war over secession and would fight another.”
Who is this “we” you speak of? “We” meaning the rest of the American populace are not going to willingly spill a drop of American blood to keep the bathhouse republic in the union. They have no militia, no leverage to speak of. Any “independence” granted will be on terms that are extremely unfavorable to them. If that’s what californication wants, then so be it.
