    Brexit didn’t involve the central government bringing in armed forces to quash the rebellion, so this will definitely be a thousand times worse at the least. Texit would be the start of a civil war because the government won’t let them leave, and I’m sure some other idiot governor would try to send their local guard detachment to ‘help’.
