I am indifferent qua "separatists"; in regard to the
others:
I simply, sadly know that it is
your country and its up to u to decide what to do with it.
I 'm put in mind of when I was 13 years old, I was befriended by
my next door nabor, Joe, an Italian a few months younger than I was,
who lamented to me that his father ofen
insulted him and beat him.
Accordingly, I suggested considerations of self-defense
whereupon, he turned around 18O degrees, and declared
(to my surprize): "he's my father and he has a
RIGHT to hit me." That was the end of
that.
Thereafter (figuratively speaking) I was a witness to this
(not that I actually saw it happen) in that I heard a lot of yelling
coming from next door and (from Joe), I knew what was going on,
but I was
1OO% powerless to do anything about it.
(I did not wish to interfere by calling the police.)
Similarly, if I hear about a foreign country making questionable political decisions,
I know that it falls to me to
mind my own business and keep my
mouth shut, tho I feel sad about it.
