Just like Fort Sumter was in S.C.. 🙂
Yes, of course. My point is that secession is a different issue today, and the means and outcome could be radically different. as long as Texans don;t try to take over federal bases, etc., no firing on the fort, then it has a very different feel.
I would expect the feds to at least put up a token fight, to make things look good. The conspiracy theory material I am familiar with has the US broken into 11 or 12 regions. states retain their ID, but the government structures are aligned differently. I think it would be an easy sell to the perople - get rid of the unnecessary, overbearing, and arrogant overhead that is Washington! You can be "sort of united," common culture, diversity everywhere, etc.
Confusing borders is a bit new to USA, but it is common in Europe and the Middle East. No reason it can't be done in the US, to the benefit of the controlling families.
