If they were to ever secede, what would happen if their "former" State had to declare a State Of Emergency due to a natural disaster? I somehow doubt that their requests would be met with eager enthusiasm.

And the idiocy continues. Now it's being used as justification for attempted homicide.

Typical Republican Filp-Flop.........He must have watched Mittens to closely............
Gov. Rick Perry, who famously mused about secession in 2009, doesn’t support an effort by some Texas residents who are petitioning to leave the United States.

Yues indeed, urban areas... the most crime, squalor, worst schools... 100% controlled and owned by the Democrats. They must be proud.
You do understand I was being sarcastic with that post.. some members didn't.. cough tay. :roll:
No way, No how with any of those states will separate, and even by armed succession, the US military would be in there like fly's to sh*t.
Those applications are nothing more than a bunch of disgruntled nit wits being sore losers over the fact their boy didn't get elected. Get over it, it's just 4 years and try winning with a better candidate.
Next the sore losers may try and impeach Obama over Libya. eh, maybe I shouldn't give them any ideas.. they might read this.. lol :lol:

So, if a state doesn't like the president, it can collect petitions, and then the president will consider the issue? That makes no sense. If you're considering seceding because of the current government then shouldn't it take more sigs than that, so you can skip the pres and hold a referendum?
The answer is no. It also isn't limited to the right side.

Of course it's not limited to the right side, I never said it was, I'm just asking about the process. It seems weird to me that if you want to secede because of the current government, that you'd have to get approval from said government rather than have a workaround
No shyte.... Get out the tin foil hats - I expect to be regaled with all kinds of conspiracy theories very soon.
It's extremely funny when the morally superior stand on their soap box and lecture Americans on being educated, and can't get the spelling correct.
It is what I would call a complete waste of time. These petitions and these movements are foolishness.
Which is why I pointed it out.
Of course they are!
It's all about the sensationalism, fall on my sword,"I really mean it this time", overly dramatic making of a point.
Let me get this right.......They...the U.S. held an election and Obama won. This is not good enough for some crazies
who regardless of the election, want another outcome. Is this not the same country that holds up their election
as a grand example for democracy everywhere? Some people are obviously not on the same page.

lol So these people (probably numbering well under a million) want to secede which would affect the millions of others in those states just so the few people in the fed gov't won't have an effect on them? Funny shyte.Citizens in 21 states ask to secede after Obama re-election
By QMI Agency
Within a week of U.S. President Barack Obama's re-election, citizens from 21 states have filed petitions asking to secede from the United States, according to the White House website.
Louisiana was first, posting its request on Nov. 7.
It was soon joined by Texas, on Nov. 9.
In asking for the president to "peacefully grant" permission for his state to withdraw from the union, creator Micah H., of Arlington, wrote: "To do so would protect its citizens' standard of living and re-secure their rights and liberties in accordance with the original ideas and beliefs of our founding fathers which are no longer being reflected by the federal government."
Petitioners have one month to obtain 25,000 signatures in order for the president to consider the request.
As of Monday morning, Louisiana had 13,197.
Texas had 17,260.
The petition from Florida was created Saturday -- the same day the state finally declared Obama the victor in this election after another controversial ballot count. On Monday morning, it had 4,823 signatures.
The other 18 states with requests for secession: Alabama, North and South Carolina, Kentucky, Mississippi, Tennessee, Michigan, Indiana, North Dakota, Montana, Colorado, Oregon, New Jersey, New York, Arkansas, Georgia and Missouri.
All quote a passage from the Declaration of Independence that reads "whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or abolish it, and institute new Government."

My negative was to the post that suggested Canada incorporate certain states re;secession.

So 0.0025% of the citizens of Florida want out! How credible can that be, especially when they voted for a loser?
Like the guy who wants to flip a coin and when that doesn't work go for 2 out of 3.
