If Washington shuts down and the good ol' boys are refused entrance into Fort Sumter and the other National Parkss, there will be mutiny in the South. :D

Fort Sumter again? That place is a pain. Last time y'all got the Indians allotted with that crap.
Just bring in the State Militia, or whatever militia you can find. Militia-ize the State Park Rangers. They can look after the place for a day.

Well, with all our troops overseas, if we want to try to take the fort again, now would be the time to do it, lol.

Announce there's going to be a powwow. It'll be taken over.

It would be quite interesting if our the state government actually took over operations of Fort Sumter for the 150th anniversary.

Wonder if your governor has even thought of this. Surely she has that much sense?
Too bad it isn't N.C. Then Gunny could introduce a resolution on it...

Intrade has shutdown now at 68%. I don't really care much, but it's kinda funny because it illuminates the hilarity and theater that is our political system.

Well, since In-N-Out Burger is already spreading in Texas, and now this, now's the time for a new secessionist campaign.
