"First they came for the Communists,
and I didn’t speak up,
because I wasn’t a Communist.
Then they came for the Jews,
and I didn’t speak up,
because I wasn’t a Jew.
Then they came for the Catholics,
and I didn’t speak up,
because I was a Protestant.
Then they came for me,
and by that time there was no one
left to speak up for me."

Secession Talk in Tucson
“There's talk of part of Arizona seceding from the state and forming a new one. Those looking for the exit are -- wait for it -- leftists.” Well, I think this is just theater on the part of the Arizona lefties, just for show. However, I think it is a great idea, especially for leftie collectives… let them form their own little groups and tax the hell out of themselves to finance their Big Mama State dreams. It is their right to do so and I am in perfect agreement with them being able to set up their collectives if they want to, as long as they don’t try to force me to be a part of it. I wish them the very best of luck in that scenario. Alas, I suspect that they won’t be able to fund the typical left desired level of government care, which is why they’ll never really be satisfied with their own little non-mandatory collectives. They need our money to afford their desired level of government care, so they’ll never leave us alone, they’ll always try to legislate our forced participation.

G'day Sharon Secor,
I give your intro to this TEN BIG STARS! However, we need to keep in mind that only a "collectivist", (as opposed to an "individualist"), would wish to force their fellow citizens, who are against secession, to secede with them.
Thanks for the generous praise and the well made point regarding collectivists.
Best Regards...
Well deserved. Notice that one of their spokespersons, Paul Eckerstrom, said this, "We actually want to stay in the union." Of course you do; after all, who would support your socialist programs if you didn't, Paul, you?
Have a great day, Sharon Secor.
