The fear is rational—it is that voice in the back of their heads saying they wish the rule of law still existed, they wish that elections still mattered, they wish that courts treated everyone fairly, etc.

The change will be awful for many folks.

My only point is that pieces of paper will not be relevant.

When the time comes for breakup it will happen—and all the “rules” and “laws” will become quaint reminders of a distant past.

The dirty little secret of human affairs is that they are not rational, they are not predictable, and often they are not pleasant.

So—I understand the fear.

“pieces of paper will not be relevant.”

That is the part folks are not understanding-it is almost denial to believe pieces of paper-no matter what they say-are going to keep order-especially when they don’t keep order now-not even the constitution...
