Nah, with 51 stars you can arrange them into a pretty circle, like this
View attachment 6904391

If it did happen, we'd have more than 51. Canada as a whole would be unlikely to want to join (Quebec would want to be their own country) and each province could elect to leave Canada independently. The most likely to break away and want to join the US would be Alberta, Manitoba, and Saskatchewan. Others might join over time, but if Canada collapses it won't happen all at once.

I'm inclined to think that it won't happen at all as the Conservative party is poised to sweep the next election and I expect them to look to the successes that Trump has had and implement similar reforms and policies.
 
An anthem about one half of the country defeating the other half is intrinsically not a "national" anthem.
Nah, I think "Battle Cry of Freedom" is a great unifying song for the current era. It hits all the right beats, and speaks to something globo homo absolutely does not want in the most powerful nation of Earth. Rally around the flag boys. Rally once again. Shouting the battle cry of Freedom!
 
among other things they cause tardive dyskinesia, an uncontrollable involuntary movement disorder that is often permanent
looks like this
Oh jeez dude, I didn't consider how hard TD might make their gooning seshes. You're probably right, we should let them continue to groom minors with tolerance and impunity instead.
 
The new thing we need to tell people enough to meme into reality is that DHS is offering 750 reward for tips that lead to a deportation.
Do they even have a tip line? I am sure there are many patriots willing to do this work for free. I'd happily pay for them to prioritize the beaners causing havoc in my neighborhood.
 
It's a shame Colombia is a thing as it stole the name Columbia from the USA since it would have made for a wonderful unique title. Before there was Uncle Sam it was Columbia who represented the personification of the USA, which if you think about it makes sense since Britannia is the personification of Britain so as a child nation it follows that it would be another woman.

But that's why it would make such a good anthem. It's a song for soldiers marching in war, not for gilded elites in orchestra houses.
You’re forgetting the point of a national anthem. It’s not about being a battle hymn. It’s about reminding the people of who they are and what they stand for.

On the topic of Britannia, Columbia and anthems, there exists an old American version of Rule Britannia.


Here are the lyrics:
[Verse 1]
When first the sun o'er ocean glow'd
And earth unveil'd her virgin breast
Supreme mid nature's vast abode
Was heard the Almighty's dread behest:
Rise, Columbia!
Columbia, brave and free
Poise the globe and bound the sea!

[Verse 2]
In vain shall thrones
In arms combined
The sacred rights I gave, oppose;
In Thee, the asylum of mankind
Shall welcome nations find repose
Rise, Columbia!
Columbia, brave and free
Poise the globe and bound the sea!

[Verse 3]
When bolts the flame
Or whelms the wave
Be thine to rule the wayward hour:
Bid death unbar the watery grave
And Vulcan yield to Neptune's pow'r
Rise, Columbia!
Columbia, brave and free
Bless the globe and bound the sea!

[Verse 4]
Revered in arms, in peace humane:
No shore nor realm shall bound thy sway
While all the virtues own thy reign
And all the elements obey!
Rise, Columbia!
Columbia, brave and free
Bless the globe, and bound the sea!
Rise, Columbia!
Columbia, brave and free
Bless the globe, and rule the sea!
Oh, bless the globe, and rule the sea!
 
Deo Vindice.


Swing punches at the long dead all you want, the only difference between immortal glory versus immortal shame in the eyes of some in in America is if a war of independence succeeds or not. It's not like those descendants of those dastardly Southerners of yore ensure Republicans ever have a chance of winning national elections. The war for slavery is over, now we have the war for how people should be remembered.
You picked out confederate songs but left out literally their best one?
