The more the left continues to lose, the more radicalized they will become.

Let some of these states leave, so they no longer rule the rest of us. Vermont, Oregon ...

Oh heck. Nuke Portland, Seattle, San Francisco and L A. and the entire problem would go away.

There’s a novel entitled THE PEOPLE’S REPUBLIC based on the leftists exiting the U.S. Fun book.

The UN and China don’t want control over Oregon or Vermont. They want California with its resources and ports. Screw them.

The problem is multiculturalism, diversity, and illegal aliens. Complicate this with an education system that is anti-American. My kids school for example this week, one boy was simply told Columbus was bad, another got zero mention of Columbus all day. A previous year they were told Columbus Day was simply a banking holiday!

FIRST, let’s see some NINETY TO TEN PERCENT VICTORIES IN SOME STATES.

Before everyone here gets all “the south shall rise again!!”, remember that 40 percent is a pretty big ####ing number, so if a state even goes 60 to 40 for a president, that’s not a state that wants to break away.

As usual, people here care what one IDIOT is saying in an article.

Besides CA, which is NUTS, and i bet it doesn’t pass THERE, the proposition, no one wants to “secede”.

I think too much winning around here is making people lose their minds and look for truth in nonsense.

There are two nations in the country with seemingly irreconcilable differences. One wants freedom, industry, and a guiding constitution. The other wants control, dependence, and subservience to the state.

That’s a divide that defies unity.

I would prefer to just physically remove the socialist vermin from the country and put them in full-fledged socialist countries that already exist. And then never let them back in ever again.

And if they dont want to go peacefully I have a plan for that too.

Hey...wait till after my kid leaves Ft Lewis-McCord sometime next year.

Then you can have at it.

"It's long past time to allow Kansans to live as they see fit..."

Kind of the point of states, no? Let states make their own laws without the constant interference of big fed telling their residents who they have to bake for or what kind of firearms they can own? It shouldn't take a civil war, or secession to allow states to live as they see fit.

Has no one considered the security problems that would arise if CA becomes independent?

Another 1,000 mile border to protect, Chinese troops, a few million SA illegals....

A nightmare.

Much better to send in the troops, seize the state government, put Moonbeam in jail, declare martial law, suspend the right to vote and forget about letting CA go.

Are these people completely screwed in their brains and living in their own fantasy world? Yes and yes. You secede and you die until such time as the survivors give up. That’s been settled.

...and when our Communist friends visit the shores of fairy dust break away coastal states, who will they turn too?

Not me.

It wouldn’t have to be the entire state of California. Just LA and SF. While we are at it let Portland and Seattle go, too, but not the rural areas of Oregon and Washington. Let’s see: Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland, New York, Philadelphia, all of Massachusetts and Burlington, Vermont could be kicked out. That would leave south Florida and I’ll bet a bunch of Yankees could be persuaded to go HOME if the proper incentive were offered.

“physically remove the socialist vermin from the country and put them in full-fledged socialist countries that already exist. And then never let them back in ever again.”

Excellent idea. There are many socialist Petri dishes to choose from. They just need a kick in the @ss to go try one. And after realizing how full of steaming crap the dream is, sorry, too late. No return. Live with the consequences.

All these efforts, including CA, would seem approval from Congress

They can have it!!!!

We DO need to keep up on what the enemy is up to.

And I MAY be getting fat and lazy from winning.

But some here want to go to war with me when my people (Italians from staten island AND from upstaet) are JUST as patriotic as them!!

Hell, I would know Italian MUCH MORE fluently if my parents hadn’t decided “we’re in America now, no more speaking Italian!!”

So what I did pick up came from my grandparents.

BTW, I don’t see the crime in my parents having taught me Italian on the side.

It’s nice to know a second language.

Half my Italian friends speak fluent Italian and half don’t speak a word of it.

Two separate groups of friends.

And what the #### does this have to do with the original topic!!!???? :)

I need a robot friend.

I would not mind one bit if we had a friendly separation. Neither side can stand the other so why continue with the misery.
