I agree with you. Secession is the only solution. But we're considered extremists.

Yes, even in this forum.

Secession cannot be considered because the Yankee “conservatives” know they will end up trapped in the USSA. So they want all or nothing. So revolution talk is ok, secession talk is not.

I suggest there has been no revolution

There have been an increasing number of incidents where firearms owners rights are obviously being violated. Incidents such as those were supposted to be vindicated by all the chest thumping preppers but they're no where to be found.

My guess is that they're busy with their kid's basketball game or working overtime to pay for their new truck........You know, priorities.......

Secession is surrender.

Only the lawyers would profit as they divide up—and pocket—what we all own in common.

And this is coming from a Southern Nationalist and ex-LoS member.

“I know people who would let the government come into their home and take their last piece of furniture and would pay most of their income in tax as long as they have beer and TV. “

Two-thirds of Americans would stand outside their front doors at night, naked and waiting for an official government inspection of their homes before watching that TV.

A secession makes sense. A divide where there are 2 distinct places to go one socialist, one free.

American leftists preach diversity but their real goal is uniformity under their vision and rules.

We started out with the secession concept, but on a grander scale.

The Founders "seceded" from the old country.

The entire USA was free.

For well over 200 years we remained free while most of the rest of the world was communist, socialist or tending socialist, run by dictators and tyrants of various sorts, or still in the tribal/mud-hut stage of development.

Now half of the US is infested with socialist/communist moochers who believe we, the other half, are their cattle - to be milked for their convenience.

If we now split into two, the socialist moocher half will spend their lives and treaure trying to infest and convert the remaining half that is free.

That's what shark-filled moats are for, silly. ;)

American Idol, DWTS, Walking Dead, a refrigerator full of cold brew, and March Madness.

Back in the day, Clinton got freeped quite a few times and I’m proud to have participated. This is different. This is playing for keeps, not standing on a curb with a protest sign screaming at the pResident to “pull up your damn trousers and, oh yeah, stop giving our secrets to China while you’re at it.”

We’re all 15 yrs older. Some if us must pass the torch. I have much more confidence in Southern Bubbas than i do with others, but we shall see. And Texas Bubba is still mad about Goliad and what the Alamo represented, so factor that in the equation. When/If the younger generation decides they’ve had enough, i expect there will be quite a few dead DHS/whatever people lying around on the ground with unspent magazines loaded with those hollow points next to them. Honestly, they have no clue of what they’ll be up against down here and out in the heartland. Not. A. Friggin. Clue.

The lengths people will go to in avoidance of revolution are amazing. Consider that for most any vicious regime ripe for rebellion against, nigh unto all people just carried on with whatever they needed to for food & shelter. Few indeed will plot a path for revolution, much less a viable one.

Nonetheless, a room may remain filled with propane for some time before one small spark causes catastrophe - and before a demolition crew finalizes their plans.

I suggest there has been no revolution because Obama and his lieutenants have been able to disguise his lack of belief in the legitimacy of the system as patriotism.

It seems he put one over on the Israelis this week, as well, convincing them that he is on their side. To be precise, he said that America is on their side -- which is true. I'm not sure he said anything about himself being on their side.
