Pt Roberts Washington is suffering badly economically due to the border situation.

This is the community located contiguous to Canada, but is part of the U.S.

Its only transportation/connections are through Canada.

U.S.-Canada border closure hurts Washington town cut off from state

The extended border closure shut down two border crossings for the town of about 1,300 people, who must commute 25 miles through Canada to get to the rest of Washington state

www.theglobeandmail.com

Washington's governor and senators are lobbying Canada for some kind of exception to the border rules for Pt. Roberts, where no Covid cases have been detected.

No indication they've thought to just switch countries yet...........

If there's turmoil that could lead to the second American Civil War, Point Roberts, WA could join Canada.

Retaliatory attacks like this could lead to a Second American Civil War. But again, the Second American Civil War is going to become inevitable.

After all, the First World War began by a Serbian nationalist attempting to assassinate Archduke Ferdinand of Austro-Hungary.

17-year-old arrested after 2 killed during unrest in Kenosha

From link.

A white, 17-year-old police admirer was arrested Wednesday after two people were shot to death during a third straight night of protests in Kenosha over the police shooting of a Black man, Jacob Blake.

Kyle Rittenhouse, of Antioch, Illinois, was taken into custody in Illinois on suspicion of first-degree intentional homicide. Antioch is about 15 miles from Kenosha.

Two people were killed Tuesday night and a third was wounded in an attack apparently carried out by a young white man who was caught on cellphone video opening fire in the middle of the street with a semi-automatic rifle.

"I just killed somebody," the gunman could be heard saying at one point during the rampage that erupted just before midnight.

In the wake of the killings, Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers authorized the sending of 500 members of the National Guard to Kenosha, doubling the number of troops. The governor's office said he is working with other states to bring in additional National Guard members and law officers. Authorities also announced a 7 p.m. curfew, an hour earlier than the night before.

"A senseless tragedy like this cannot happen again," the governor, a Democrat, said in a statement. "I again ask those who choose to exercise their First Amendment rights please do so peacefully and safely, as so many did last night. I also ask the individuals who are not there to exercise those rights to please stay home and let local first responders, law enforcement and members of the Wisconsin National Guard do their jobs."

...In Wisconsin, it is legal for people 18 and over to openly carry a gun, with no license required...

I'm assuming that the semi-automatic rifle was the parent's.

There is no provision in the US Constitution for state secession let alone parts thereof so it would require interesting legislation, negotiations and a treaty. N/W Angle is further complicated by the presence of an Indian territory (as they call it). No doubt any treaty negotiations would require a quid pro quo - perhaps we'd have to give them Campobello Island. I would not be in favour of giving up anything to solve their problem.

Honestly. Biden really needs to address the riots. He's going to be lose his lead in the suburbs if the rioting keeps up. It's unfortunate that agitators are taking advantage of the BLM protests. But ignoring the violence is massively dangerous.

Now, even the Democrats have their fifth column, consisting of rioters who give progressivism a bad name.
