Does that mean if we gave 'er another go, you Yankees would let us peaceably go our way this time?
Or would you wage war upon us and slaughter the equivalent of 7,000,000 Americans like the last time? "No blood for oil", right? There's a lotta oil in Texas, although the dude doesn't seem to be too enthralled with taking Texas along for the ride.
Lotta automotive plants down in the South, too. We've got Honda, BMW, Toyota, Nissan and Mercedes scattered around here. Even VW! You've got "Detroit" (well, what's left of it) -- GM, Ford and Fiat. I like our odds.
Hmmm...now that I think about it, we might be able to pull it off. Since so many of the good folks up there are anti-gun, most Yankess probably don't possess the skills to wage a war like Mr. Lincoln did the last time. We've got Beretta moving in, Remington ammo plant over in Arkansas....give us a few more years and a few more rounds of Yankee gun regulations and maybe we'll have the whole of the American gun manufacturing capability south of the Mason-Dixon line......then how would they stop us? Throw rocks?
We even got FedEx and UPS down here. They could smuggle anything we need from up there to down here.
I may have to give this some thought.
