    I wonder if those States wanting to secede would change USA's motto from "E Pluribus Unum" to "E Pluribus Pluribus"

        @neiltyson E Pluribus Unum is a left-wing socialist atheist Kenyan saying meaning "kill all the white people". Fox News said so. #dimwits

        @neiltyson speaking of Latin, how would you describe the taxonomy of a burger? Sandiwhium Burgitiis? What I'm asking is a burger a sandwich?

        @neiltyson The USA's official motto is "In God We Trust." We'd have to change it back first (and should).

        @DorkmanScott @neiltyson Technically correct however an act of congress in 1782 had it as E Pluribus Unum. Modern, sure, but not first.

        @KefTheBeerMan Right. Was changed in the 50s. Would have to be changed back first. Which it should be since the modern is unconstitutional.
