I'm sorry to burst your bubble, but America is not yours to have or give away. Just so you understand where I'm coming from, my American ancestors directly participated in the American Revolutionary war against the British and the American Civil War against the Confederacy and the American war against the Axis Powers during World War II.  Yes, I agree with you, the American side won the last time and the times before it as well. I expect that to continue/prevail against the quasi socialists of our time as well. So, how much of the country are you able to lose and still be able survive and adequately maintain liberal government with all its liberal policies and programs these days. Your state could on the verge of splitting and seeing its tax revenues significantly reduced by a bunch of self righteous fools who have this crazy notion in their heads that have the same power as the government of New Zealand or Australia.

As far as I know, there are no warmongers itching for blood and soil on my side of this tiff. Antifa is a pale antithesis of the white power types, and I actually see them around in my own community. Rebel flags are both common and intended to be provocative. And no one on my side is trotting around carrying assault rifles everywhere. Can you say the same for your side? And btw, why the need to go about armed to the teeth? Is this nascent cowardice or simply old-fashioned paranoia?
