As with Bobby Lee, my allegiance is to my God and my home state first, the Federal Government last.

the imbecile obviously drew lines based on no knowledge of American history whatsoever-UTAH lumped in with CA, AZ-??? KY and TN , the Carolinas, choosing to go with the northeast rather than the deep south? The American midwest dominated by Canada when we have many times there population? Does the fool not realize that AK has a national guard that possesses high tech weapons and plenty of them? I say this as a person who believes that the secession of the midwest (lower at least) and the south + TX is the only way to preserve *some* American freedom and the Constitution.

Speaking as a Canadian, as far as I know Canada has no influence. I don’t think he knows much about the US or Canada.

We might collapse, but the map sure the HELL isn't going to look like that.

After the gun owners of Tx, Ok, Ks, Neb, S.D, N.D, NM, Wym, Mont, Ark, La, Miss, Ala, Ga, Fla, Tenn, Ky, Ar, Utah and Idaho go apesh@t, the liberals will be confined to the left and right coasts.

Panarin's prediction about the division of the U.S. reveals a lack of understanding of American society, its fault lines, and its demographics and demographic tendencies, and this, in turn, casts doubt on his understanding of the entire U.S. and his ability to make predictions concerning it.

For example:

Why would S.C., N.C., Tenn., Va., et al. be expected to join the northeast but Ga., Fla., Ala., et al. to join Texas? This doesn't make sense.

He evidently thinks that the South is heavily Hispanic.

He evidently thinks the Native American population of the Western states is larger than it is.

He thinks that Utah would ally itself with California but not with, say, Texas.

No way! Tennessee will join Georgia and Alabama.
