What state(s) have the milita to face the FED (as in US Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force) when the FED says any secession is illegal?

The Confederate States tried it and lost.

Remember, if a state declares itself a free entity, the provisions of The Posse Comitatus Act would not apply to them, as the military forces lined up just outside their borders.

You don't always have to loose. That said this is what the Russians wanted to happen and worked hard to cause. Jefferson worried that country folk would become slaves to city folk and sure enough that has come to pass.

Big difference between 1861 and now. Then the only industry was in the north. Now there’s no industry or no oil (comparitive) in the blue states. They are just the takers and weak ones at that.

There was no internet, television, or twitter in the 1860s.

If there had been, perhaps the results of the conflict then might have been different.

Doesn’t matter if they win or lose — this time, when the federal government sends troops to crush a state or group of states, the “U.S.A.” will be over. If not as a nation, as an idea.

The modern US military is overwhelmingly rural, southern and/or conservative. It would be a very unreliable instrument for a central government, and very likely to defect wholesale to the secessionists.

The feds don't have the cojones to militarily attack a former state of the union over a purely political matter like secession. The political will to keep any red state from separating through the use of deadly force, just simply isn't there.

And think about this. If (an estimated) fifteen thousand jihadists could tie down our entire war machine in Iraq for nearly ten years, what do you think the odds of success would be against a state of MILLIONS of patriot insurgents?

I'm sorry, but any state that decides to walk, will do so without a shot being fired.

Throughout history many men much wiser than me have come to the determination that it is better to die fighting a free man than live as a slave. If war is our future, then let it come quickly while we still have the chance to defeat the evil leftist cabal and 5th columnists who threaten to destroy the republic. I am freakin Spartacus!! Are you?
