I don't know where you get any of these ideas from my post. I was trying
to calmly and rationally discuss a real possibility. The Southern United
States democratically decided to seceede from the Union; It lead to one
of the bloodiest civil wars in world history. The former Yugoslavia claims
to be fully democratic, but look at what the division there has lead too.  
Ireland is a democracy, but that hasn't stopped the bloody divisions there.
Are we to follow our political masters, and hide our heads in the sand to
the possibility of war? As your knee-jerk post shows, this is a very
emotional issue, and emotions often boil over. We need to discuss and
prepare for that possibility. As a father, war is the last thing in 
the world I would want to see. But I do not believe that talking about war 
makes it more likely. It is usually a lack of dialog that leads to war.
But let us try to keep the discussion above name calling & personal attack.
