Only in the wet dreams of idiots and radicals would states secede from the US, no matter how loud the crazies are that make it seem like civil war is an inevitable outcome. For every one crazy, there are at least 100,000 normal people who are, if not happy, then not radical about the current situation and are carrying on with their lives.

Various sources are reporting the number of petitions for secession is around 700,000 throughout the entire country now. So,that comes out to be roughly 1 person for secession for every 450 not for secession.

"That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness… it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security" - Thomas Jefferson

Not saying I endorse what these people are calling for,but I sure as hell dont endorse how things presently are either.
