I lived in California for about 11 years . I know Los Angeles really well . I also know this whole exit thing is unrealistic and wish we could foster better strategies to get the power back to the states instead of dividing our country . Enemies divide to conquer , we ' re stronger as a nation . It ' s obvious no one is happy where the country is going though , and that ' s why I want a discussion on why it could or couldn ' t work or what freedoms we CAN get California backas well as all the other states , you know ? Secession just isn ' t legally plausible without a civilwar , or is it ? Hopefully , someone can show me some legal precedent or really explain how possible this really is . <| sep |> That was Barbara Billingsly
