“Not really, but you are right -partially. In areas like the mid west and most of the south there will be almost zero sectarian violence. The “normals” will rule via state houses and suppress the tiny crazies who will emigrate anyway.”
The south is more divided than it appears. There is a large African American population allied with the progressives of the urban northeast and urban leftist west coast. In addition the white professionals in the large cities (Atlanta, Charlotte, Raleigh, Richmond, Austin, Houston, northern Virginia) are allied with the progressives of the northeast. These progressives, allied with the African American community have already turned Virginia into a red state and are in the process of turning North Carolina and Florida. The urban minorities are well armed and many are organized in gangs. If there is sectarian violence in the future it will intense in the south.
There are strongholds of liberalism in the red states. In the south a lot of the blue areas are heavy African American.
Southeast Florida is heavy Hispanic and retired northerners.
Southern Texas, NM and AZ is heavy Hispanic.
Three tribes to deal with right there.
This doesn't even begin to address the most basic of all issues: Food and Power.
Whether we like it or not a lot of our food is grown in CA. In a CW, that goes away for the Red States. All those blue counties in the south....a lot of food is grown there as well.
Think electricity is going to continue to flow in a CW?
Let me ask you something. If a state secedes and becomes an independent country then why would the people of that new country revolt or riot? What would cause the sectarian violence? What would they be rebelling against? Everything is the same except the governor is now president.
