It’s either the political theater equivalent of a hissy fit or the start of more than a dozen new countries: Citizens in 15 states have filed petitions to secede from the United States after Tuesday’s election. These include Louisiana (which led the charge), the Republic of Texas, Kentucky, Colorado, New Jersey, Montana, North Dakota, Indiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, Alabama, Florida, Georgia and Oregon. And somewhat hilariously, someone in North Dakota filed a petition requesting New York secede, which seems pretty rude, given they are sort of handling a major natural disaster right now. Although this is largely seen as symbolic, the filers in each state still have a month to gather 25,000 signatures to have their peaceful withdrawal from the U.S.A. considered by the president. Good luck with that.

Holy shit Family Guy was right!

Little surprised Oregon is on that. This place is hippy liberal central. They should love Obama.

[Correction]

Louisiana and Mississippi would turn into war-ravaged 3rd world countries in less than a year without the federal dollars they receive yearly to not educate their children or modernize their society.

Florida, meanwhile

[Dranio]

-.- not sure I want my state (Montana) to secede.

[BaneTheBrawler]

Sure am glad we haven't fought a war over (among other things) whether states have the right to secede.

[Niiro]

Can we fight a war to....y'know, undo that and bid so many of these worthless states a fond farewell?

If they want to fall into third world status in order for the rest of us act a bit more like the first world country we're supposed to be I say go for it.

Jersey can stay tho, they're all right and we still need them to make jokes about.

[Rhyis.]

The Allied States of America. It's coming.

[Kuya]

Don't they do this all the time?

[Krazy]

But after they secede, are they going going to move to Canada?

[Shenrien]

I cant wait for the war on the slack jawed hillbillies.

[Guyverarmor]

Me and the wife were planning on moving out of Texas anyway.

Good fucking lord... REALLY?

[Pirian]

They did it in 08 when Obama first one, iirc.

The Allied States of America. It's coming.

With all their insistence on the greater influence of state government I could see them going for something along the lines of the American Sovereign States or ASS for short.

[bechyni]

what the fuck...

With Chuck Norris as their president if I remember right.

Sometimes I wish we could just drop most of the South and Midwest. . _ .)

Sometimes I wish we could just drop most of the South and Midwest. . _ .)

Being from the south, I have to agree. Could nuke 99% of NC and nothing of value would be lost.

Well, except for maybe the scenery. It does have more variety in that respect than any other state I've lived in.

Ok, just poison the sheep instead and watch the population darwin itself out.

[Dimmauk]

Yeah.

LOL New Jersey.
