There is not a state in the nation where this could be done “peacefully.”

Our divisions today, unlike in 1860, are not regional. They are ideological and cultural, and they’re mixed across America. Even the most conservative state has a great many liberals, and the reverse is also true.

Any civil war in America today would not be a war between regions like the WBTS, it would be a true civil war, and would be much nastier.

Yep. I've reminded some of that very fact. Physical secession would be extremely problematic.
