    Hmmm....I've always wondered what would happen if a state like Alaska or Hawaii seceded from the USA. I suppose if Alaska was really seriously or had some really extremist paranoid leaders in charge, the US couldn't do that much since aren't there tons of nukes there?

    Lots of nukes in Texas as well. Not to mention we have the only company that actually makes and assembles them....thats whats up
    There, but for the grace of God, goes John Bradford

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    Do you hate Drug Cartels? Do You believe that the Drug War is basically a failure? Do you think that if we Legalized the Cannabis market, that use rates would drop, we could put age limits on cannabis, tax it, and other wise regulate it? Join The ORG Marijuana Policy Project!

    In American politics, similar to British politics, we have a choice between being shot in our left testicle or the right testicle. Both parties advocate pissing on the little guys, only in different ways and to a different little guy.

    I can't think of any extremist Alaskan leaders. No sir-ee, not in Alaska.
