**You guys are so thin-skinned, though, that you assume a disagreement about the process of a state leaving the union automatically means we hate you, and then you turn vicious, making all kinds of threats.**

We simply point to that uncivil as a major stepping block to centralization of Power..

Listen, We have a out of Control Federal Government as well as many States that are infecting the whole nation...We must now be careful not to even attend a ‘tea party’ or be labeled a terrorist!Do I want to be a party to this?

This Federal Government is now going after States or Sheriffs for INFORCING Federal immigration laws..They even prosecuted two of their very own..

The Second Amendment was to in one regard to protect us from THEM...Now THEY tell us who may own one or not..Kinda funny how that works

How do ‘we’ fix this mess? If you wish to have a ‘civil’ discussion..Then fine
Let's talk about the 10th Amendment in today's world?

I agree on the first part, but you can't, on the one hand, claim to want a more decentralized, state-dominated federal system, then gripe about what other states do. Or do you subscribe to the theory that states can be expelled from the union?

Organize. Exploit weaknesses in the Democratic coalition. Hold to a solid set of principles and find spokespeople to articulate them to the public intelligently and without anger and rancor, which turns off a lot of swing voters who would otherwise be sympathetic to the arguments. Be positive. What goes around will come around again. I think this country is worth working to save and I'm not ready to see it broken up.
