Along with the coming crash of the economy there may occur in this country a movement that few have considered. I am not saying that this latest article in my imminent danger series will happen but I think that there is about a 50/50 chance that it will. As the country goes liberal and makes amoral laws and calls biblical expression hate speech, regions of this country may decide they do not want to be part of the United States anymore.
The counter-revolution from the heartland may start as a rebirth of the anti federal Government American Patriot Movement and the Libertarians that all but died out after 9/11. The leaders of the movement will address government circumvention of U.S. constitutional rights and it will gain an increasingly large following when muzzled Christian conservatives also identify with their message and some support the movement.
The federal government will obviously oppose these constitutional militias or whatever they decide to call themselves and overreact against them with Homeland Security directed raids that will dwarf Waco. This will only help enlighten more people in the Heartland to the creeping government fascism that is taking control of government and it will spark secession movements in conservative states.
As with prior federal agendas, they will threaten to withhold federal funds and use other coercion techniques against states that will not fully comply with locally unpopular federal laws. That will only alienate state representatives and legislators who will be under much pressure by the local people and cause them to threaten to cut off sending federal taxes to Washington. At some point one northern mountain state will put secession from the union to a emergency state referendum and it will pass. They will declare themselves a free state (like Kosovo) and invite international recognition. Other northern mountain states and some mid-western farming states might soon join with them and create a new union of states.
Have you ever thought that the decentralisation of power caused by a breaking up of the United States might actually be good for the USA and its people? Of course there are dangers of such an event, but I could see much good coming of it personally, the USA has been far too centralised over too large a jurisdiction for a while now.
I think decentralization will be good. That is really the way the US was set up in the first place, but gradually the federal government has been taking more and more power.
It’s OVERDUE for us to secceed from the union. The Constitution and Bill of Rights have been made charming antiques by the elites who run this nation/the world. Only problem is it’s too late. They’ve everything in place: empty prisons in almost every state (above ground), and we can only guess how many are underground. Blackwater and the like, and our own National Guard, and those of Canada, Mexico and many South American countries are already contracted and treatied and set for martial law to be employed. Pray now for strength of faith, wisdom, endurance, understanding of the length and depth and breadth of God’s Love for you/me as proof and promise through Jesus Christ Our Lord. He said He’d never leave us nor forsake us. Believe it and speak everyday, and “I can do all things through Christ Who strengthens me!”
