Sometimes a relationship gets so toxic that is best to cut one lost and separate otherwise you wind up destroying each other. Yugoslavia for an instant. The leader of the Serbia ethnic group used nationalism and ethnicity as a rallying cry much like those within the Republican base are doing now. Freedom of speech is used for sedition. The right to bear arms to stockpiled for violence.
Let them go if it comes to that or deals with domestic and political terrorism. I am taking them seriously about violently taking back the government. Another group of racial-centered folks tried to secede in the past when they thought their vision of America was threatened. They will never be happy in a diverse society where they don't dominate the issues and what is considered American. Diversity of thought and lifestyle is toxic to them. Exposing their children to it is unbearable for some. Let them go, with no federal aid and a bill for half the national debt. Their mindset has been a thorn in America's side since its creation. Clean the wound and get rid of the pus, good riddances. I wouldn't fight for them to stay, the cost would be too great if they are serious. Instead of states going after each other, it could be counties within the same state. Idaho and Illinois are two states with a mixed strong political leaning that could be sparked. BLM marches being attacked with weapons is easy to imagine. Then we have a pandemic and possible economic downturn going on too? volatile emotions, discontent, and loss of faith in the government are running high.
This talk of breaking the Union is so short-sighted, moronic, and self-destructive that we probably will do it.

There are three kinds of men. The one that learns by reading. The few who learn by observation. The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence for themselves.
