"Yes California Independence Campaign, a fringe political group that calls for the state to become an independent nation, filed a proposed ballot measure with the Attorney General's Office on November 21, The Sacramento Bee reports.
If it garners the half a million signatures required to appear on the 2018 gubernatorial ballot, the measure would strike language from the state constitution that would help clear a path to secession."
Because that shit totally worked when it was actually half the country doing it and they had actual guns and most of the best generals in the country.
I'm sure a bunch of troons, loons and buffoons can beat the entire U.S. armed forces.
Agreed. Robert E. Lee was a master tactician who won most of his battles against a numerically superior opponent. In fact, prior to commanding the Confederate Army, Lincoln asked him to take command of the Union Forces. He had numerous upset victories against the Union and the South still ultimately lost. One of my favorite historians, Shelby Foote, (who has on occasion been criticized for being too "Pro-Confederacy") had this to say:Because that shit totally worked when it was actually half the country doing it and they had actual guns and most of the best generals in the country.

Shelby Foote said:"I think that the North fought that war with one hand behind its back. If the Confederacy ever had come close to winning on the battlefield, the North simply would have brought that other arm out from behind its back. I don’t think the South ever had a chance to win that war.”

Plus every red county in California will immediately counter-secede, and could easily handle that shit themselves without the US even needing to lift a finger except to maybe tell Mexico "yeah, don't get any funny ideas".
The rest of the nation won't agree to this because they love our tax dollars.The only legal avenue for California to secede requires the state to win approval by two-thirds of Congress and three-quarters of the states in the country, he said.
