And what happens when the younger generations and the following generations slowly turn Red America blue over the next 20 years?
There comes a point where we must fight.
There is no where to run.
There is no where to hide.
The Republic must live.
Many years ago when I was studying martial arts, my teacher taught me an old Chinese proverb: Only use violence for self-defense, or when mind too weak to solve problem.
This is a problem that can be solved without bloodshed.
A peaceful and thoughtful division would solve the problem.
Talk of secession is how conservatives pout.
It was a democratic thing that brought on real secession as history tells it. That's recorded fact not some bloviating bullshit.
Depends on what you mean by 'brought on'. South Carolina shit its pants when Lincoln was elected.
South Carolina's hysteric over reaction was neither necessary nor inevitable. It was, simply, a misguided attempt to preserve the most loathsome institution in our nation's history: slavery.
And there's zero chance that the US will vote to divide into different countries. Which is why we're discussing Protectionsist's elimination fantasy on an obscure message board.......accompanied by a litany of veiled threats from supporting posters.
As there's little chance you'd persuade the nation to do it democratically....as its a terrible idea. So conservatives when they want to pout.....try to get what they want through threats of bloody violence.
