and you are going down if you don’t fight fire with fire. I don’t live there, I don’t know local situations.
I would say this is a Tbilisi story in the making, and if peaceful you can have an enormous effect. Actually more in US than there.
The feds cannot ignore you and anyone who stands up for states rights will have their say.
California is leading the way, and Texas has been hit hard on some fronts. Even though that state has the constitutional right to secede from the Union it will not come to that. Noises will be made, however.
But be careful , your “ United States” may not stay so united near term. We’ve never had that here so it’s hard to give you any experience of ours to look at.🇨🇦
