41. Why it can't be "Amicable"

I've been thinking about writing an OP all about this, but short version here.

1. They will want a full share of the assets, but none of the liabilities.

2. People have jobs, houses, families. The Red State Refugee thing isn't going to work out.

3. You can't just sit by while a neighboring nation drifts in full Jim Crow/Apartheid/Fascist mode.

4. There is no way that these Doomsday Cult/Armageddon nuts can be allowed control of nuclear weapons. They WILL use them.
