Now is the Perfect Time For the North and South to Divide

Let’s face it. These are trying times. The Assault on Reason, as Al Gore calls it, is a war in full bloom on all fronts. One that, sadly, seems to only get worse as the days go by. The more proof that emerges revealing the overwhelming majority of our country’s most powerful leaders are nothing but a bunch of corrupt criminals and traitors, the more their supporters will deny it.

On one side, we have a population that relies on facts, truth, fair play, and common sense. On the other, well, who the hell knows what they rely on? Fox news, fake news, hackers, conspiracy theories, coal mines, fraud, misdirection, racism, stupidity, ignorance, warm beer, Jesus (a Jesus who hates anyone and anything that isn’t Christian), Trump, Hillary-bashing-as-a-sport, and guns. And more guns.

The fight to preserve common sense and rational thought is on. Those who believe in the basic principles this country was founded on vs. those who seek to destroy them and rewrite them as they see fit. All at the expense of those different from them. Be it in the media, on social media, in the classroom, at the grocery store, the office, the neighborhood bar, at the dinner table, pretty much everywhere you look the hatred and vitriol spewing forth, from both sides, has reached epidemic proportion.

Even though those of us who believe in equality, and the ridiculous concept of Live and Let Live, know we are right, trying to convince those who choose ignorance over truth, and hate over love, is exhausting. It does nothing but further twist the knife into our own stomachs, as well as theirs.....

>Secession does not mean war.

It does mean war. It lets them justify murdering us all after we all become “traitors”. You can’t make peace with the Marxist left. Either they go, or we go.

It wouldn’t work. As soon as we split, the psycho weird part of America he likes would start pestering us about our using coal, oil, our cows producing farts, etc. Then they would put sanctions on us, sic the CIA on us to start a tranny insurgency with a few billion worth of support, then invade us in an operation named “operation good neighbor”.

It would never work.

People are not asking the right questions. The guy is jerk and creep but he makes a valid point and draws the correct conclusion. Do you want that guy to be your countrymen if you can ditch him thru secession?

Wow! There's a lot of distortion and hate in this article.

For those currently in the South who may find themselves on the wrong end of the laws in this newly divided two-nation system, you will have 180 days to relocate.

The arrogant fool didn't even mention that an equal number of people would want to go south

And of course in his model he plans to gobble up Virginia, all of it. And what does he mean by South? I'm guessing he means the states of the old confederacy. How about North Dakota? Think they want to stay with the likes of California and New York and NEVER have their person win their presidency? Not likely.

But, I'm not totally opposed to it, he makes some truthful points. The only thing that makes sense though would be to break up along the red/blue states. He should think though, this is going to leave some blue states in a pretty awkward position geographically: CO, NM, MN, IL.

Well, they got that right.  Each side sees itself in the most flattering light. Unfortunately, they think they are describing themselves.
A two-nation, two-government system. Complete with two different Presidents and two different Constitutions. Is it such a bad idea?
It's a great idea.  And when we see whose constitution differs the most from the original, we'll have proof of who were the betrayers.

No secession will be allowed. Spain is a good, present-day example. Man, do you keep up with history or the news?

I wouldn't describe the Trump map as having a North/South divide.

I will go further, it’s time for the country to split up into sections, California on it own, The West as a section, The South, the Northeast, the Midwest, etc..

Since it appears you were born yesterday please read this: Dissolution of the Soviet Union

Basically a secession with zero war.

What happens to a nation that was only together because of a few commonly held ideas, when those ideas are no longer commonly held?

But we are. The geographical differences are still there. There would be period of migrating but the separation makes sense along those lines.

I am not going to argue with you. You don’t know my background, what liberals have done to me and with whom I’ve worked. I know those folks inside and out. Back off.
