I have no problem at all with limiting or adjusting the roles and responsibilities of the Federal government but, I firmly believe that without a central government our country would soon fragment into 50 independent states, 5-6 regional confederacies, or some combination of the two, and we would soon be on a path to bloody and perpetual interstate conflict that would make the American civil war a mild argument by comparison. So, to prevent that, like my ancestors before me, i'd fight to preserve the union.

*My country* is from the rocky coast of Maine to the sunny beaches of Hawaii and everything in between. I'll not stand by and let some group of malcontents change that and i'll sacrifice my life and those of my family to stop them.
