1. Very pretty. What the hell does it mean?

It doesn't seem to indicate electoral politics or anything. Is it the spread pattern of the virus released by the Umbrella Corporation in the "Resident Evil" kill-crazy game? Explanation, please!

5. You'd be better off fighting Umbrella Corporation zombies.
Which is about as real as seceding from the United States. The Soviet Union's breakup taught nothing to you?

Besides, if you did secede, I'd bet the South would conquer you in a couple of years and reinstate slavery. Only not against black people. Against Libertarians. You guys don't want a federal government or the rule of law? Cool. Meet the Gauleiter of Vermont, your boss for the rest of your life, Dale Ernhardt Junior.

4. Right to Secede


There is absolutely nothing in the Constitution or any other legal document which precludes any state or group of states from seceding from the United States. This was true in 1861. Today, countries are split and otherwise reconfigured almost daily and the United States has evolved as the world's moral leader in supporting rights of peoples to declare themselves independent. This is a comfortable position for U.S. politicians ... as long as secession occurs in Europe, Asia, South America, or Africa.
