Didn't you get the memo from Washington? "Nationalism" has replaced "Patriotism," hence, you may exercise your right of free speech to criticize your government only in peacetime. Remember, loose lips sink ships, long manes down planes, itchy buns jam guns, and so on. And to bring up an issue like secession at a time like this? Tsk, tsk, tsk. At least wait until we have finished bombing Afghanistan from the Mesolithic Stone Age back to the Paleolithic Stone Age before you start debating a subject like imperialism.
