The ratification of the Constitution.
The ratification of the Bill of Rights

I tend to agree. BUT, 20+ years ago I'd never have argued that the right would become the party of tolerance either while the left became facist, but I would have been wrong.
Humans are cyclic.

The government was allowed to keep people from going to school based on their race. That’s definitively way more intrusive than today’s government, and you’re insane if you disagree.

Really? Examples please?
I don't want to destroy capitalism, I don't want to squash your liberties, and I definitely don't hate freedom and OMG, I'm a liberal.

Protests for politicians at dinner.
Antifa riots
Censorship from silicon valley
Hollywood elites speaking vile and displacing threats in a one sided fashion
MSM being grossly left leaning
Protests that shut down Shapiro or others that have different opinions etc
I could go on.

1) Any and all forms of income taxes, which crush my ability to save money, have a better standard of living and more secure future. This one affects me, and my employees, most directly.
2) The war on drugs, which has made crime way worse than it would otherwise be.
3) The loss of life and growing list of casualties because of the constant military adventurism.
4) The insane amount of debt and off the books liabilities we taxpayers are on the hook for. frick that.
Those are just off the top of my head.
Look around you; What isn't regulated by the federal government?

1 fits the description, but you get pretty conceptual at 2-5. I need direct instances of gonvenrment overreach warranting secession .

Should I be able to opt out of Social Security?

Why does someone who disagrees with you morally and politically have to prove to you that their reasoning is OK with you before they call for secession? What kind of warped thinking is that?

Laugh all you want. But todays liberal has become tomorrow's conservative for decades now. at least a couple decades. and while the left cant sprint faster towards a more aggressively liberal and progressive mentality, the right stays largely unchanged in their ideals... but mostly want to live anand let live.
There is no equivalent on the right to the actions of the left. I do truly believe in TDS.

Yes
You should have the option to waive what you have put in to date, and continue to pay 50% of SS taxes, in exchange for the option of putting the other 50% (tax free) into the investment of you choice.

I'm not "talking tough on the Internet". I'm trying to bend my brain to see how any of this would make sense to a normal person.
Posted on 11/14/18 at 10:57 pm to G The Tiger Fan
How what would make sense? Secession or questioning secession?

Explain to me how Cortez just got elected. How Gillum nearly did. Why the youth of America are 60%+ in favor of socialism. Why the googles/twitters/fbs of the world sensor so openly?
