I agree completely with him, but it ain’t gonna happen until things are a lot worse than this. Remember that the Civil War did not bring it to an end.
Was this around the time that the Free State Project was just beginning? It was a great movement until it was hijacked by rabid libertarians/antisemites/bigots/racists.
Let God show us what to do. If you doubt this or think it’s not serious, think again.
Always a good repost.
The economic collapse is way overdue. They’ve run out of other peoples money.
The main problem with the secessionist approach is the assumption that the left will respect boundaries. They won’t. They’ll foul their own nest and move to the freer area to foul that. Look at Florida or any state that has taken in refugees from the Socialist states; Florida would be a solid conservative state except for the hordes of North-Easterners that retired there and kept their socialist politics. The left is a biblical plague of locusts.
Retreat is not an option. Civil war is inevitable.
We are already in a civil war and have been for decades. The liberals use the courts and the media. Occasionally they have used violence. “Can’t we all get along?” “No, you communist, sexually pervert bastards, we can’t!”
If the idiots on the Left keep trying to impose their will on us, without reason, then I wouldn’t be overly optimistic about the future.
I guess the thing I don’t understand is that if liberals think this country sucks so bad and they want to change it to be more like other countries, why don’t they just leave?

Who is John Gault?
I agreed then, and even more so now.
i had a feeling the s would htf back in 2007, bought a fixer-upper sailboat and moved aboard...it was an ideal cheap home during the recession...but with current events i’m getting it ready to move...prob will make a decision about going expatriate later this year
I suppose someone sufficiently perceptive could have called for a peaceful “divorce” when Teddy started, and Woodrow accelerated movement toward “progressivism,” (by whatever name you prefer.) But a hundred years later, most of our blue states are broke. They hold a majority of our populace, but almost no assets or capabilities. They have to dominate with numbers and steal all they can from our red states, or starve. How long do you think we can feed them?
Amen!
I love Walter.
It is my sincere wish he apply his extrordinary intellect and reasoning skills to a rational whereby
California, New York, Massachusets, and Wash DC connect via one of their famous highspeed green rail systems, secede, and leave the rest of us the heck alone.
Btt
A very good question. Let it be said first and foremost in all debates on the subject that this country was founded on the principles of "liberty and a desire to be left alone."
If there's going to be a divorce the party who no longer wants to abide by the original contract should be the ones who packs their bags and hits the road.
I’m too old to run away. I’ll stand and fight.

Once again Walter nails it!
