| HOW TO With "Civil War" being tossed about so nonchalantly, let's play a hypothetical game.

[TerryP]

Which state falls first? This IS NOT meant for serious discussion...let's call it a game of "War."

I'm taking NC.

I’d agree NC 1st to fall

 

[It Takes Eleven]

NC will be there for the taking later, but it shares the same problem as most of the other states except the northeast - vast swaths of their territories are as red as rest of the flyover republic. You can waltz through most of KY and southern Illinois before reaching resistance, and there's enough local resistance in MI, WI and MN to aid in a complete split of the nation with a few enclaves remaining, such as Chicago, Detroit and Minn/St. Paul.

A county-level elections map shows it better than I can say it:

Pardon the crass. From the Mississippi to the 'sea.'

You made me think of Bury Me In Dixie by Riley Green - "God Bless Alabama from sea to Tennessee".

Mount Cheaha is my Everest, and the Coosa is my Nile
Alabama's where I was born and raised and I think I'll stay awhile
Sing about sweet home, and Dixieland Delight
We tell stories about what goes on in Montgomery at midnight
'Cause music row ain't only in Tennessee
Won't you bury me in Dixie

Beneath these Alabama pines
Take me to Tuscaloosa, plant me under the fifty yard line
Put me in an old truck, a four door Chevrolet
Drive me down to Guntersville and park me by the lake
Take me to Toomer's Corner, put me under an oak tree
Give 'em toilet paper till they mummify me
I'll rest in peace, if they bury me in Dixie

Well lay me by my daddy, and my grandpa just the same
I want every headstone next to me to read my last name
Take me back to Jacksonville, drive me up Mountain Street
Lead me into old Paul Snow and show me to my seat
When God decides it time for us to meet
Won't you bury me in Dixie

Where hard work is a plow
I wish Robert E. Lee could come back and take a bow
Take me to the Flora-Bama and set me up at the mullet toss
Everybody drinks on me, I don't care what it cost
Or take me to Talladega, spread my ashes in turn three
Paint my casket black with a big ass number three
I'll rest in peace, if they bury me in Dixie

Won't God bless Alabama from sea to Tennesse
I'll rest in peace, if they bury me in Dixie

Michigan seems to be turning into a middle eastern state. I’ve never wavered on prejudices and am not going to start now but when they get free money and other benefits that law abiding CITIZENS that are struggling don’t “qualify “ for, I’m against it. Sorry not sorry!

MN, Omar, and Somalia have created some interesting reading the last few days as well.

I have read a little about her and she seems to believe in the American constitution. I would like to read more on her though.

Going back to hyptheticals.

Texas moves west, then north west.

It's a split of a battlefield...same thing they did in Iran with Hussien, right?
