The south will rise again! South wants secession.

[dinosaurdammit]

...Or so some would think. So I have been hearing a lot about these partitions to leave the us just like the civil war back a while ago. Over 22 states have signed- and by states I mean a few thousand in each state. Lets address this, why secede? Like what is the fucking point? Honestly I am at a loss as to why people think this is a good idea. What can it accomplish? I only see just a bunch of ignorant mouth breathers yelling and foaming at the mouth but I cant help but wonder if this will get any more pull than it already has.

Citizens in over 30 states petition for secession from United States
Petition for Texas to secede from US reaches threshold for White ...



Oh usa- you so cray cray



Side note, if the south indeed does rise again, I am taking my rightful place as president of the confederacy as Jefferson Davis is my back and back whatever grandad. Everyone must own at least one lizard, one medieval weapon (DC), pajama days are mandatory, if you are hispanic you MUST wear a sombrero every 3 thursday, if you are white you are not allowed to turn orange, pants on youth must not show underwear and finally- fried food is the national food now. My dog will be my vice president, my lizard will be war defense, and my bird will be my PR agent as he wont ever shut the fuck up.

 

[Ozriel]

So people are still butthurt over the election? Wow..

I want to own Virginia and change it to be more fun. Anyone want to be part of my council?

 

[Schwimmwagen]

I just want to see the Confederate flag flying for some reason because I think it's much prettier than the stars-n-stripes and it'd make a great view for those of us on my side of the pond.

wanna be on board with my lizurd and be in my war room :3C

 

[Zydrate Junkie]

Honestly I think that's just stupid, nothing will get accomplished and it's just pointless. It's just like Scotland trying to gain independence.

On another note, call me crazy, but I agree with a lot of your policies.
All those in favor in of having DD as the president say Aye!

 

[Ranguvar]

Even if they did secede we all know that the northern aggressors would start a war.

 

[Aleu]

This isn't uncommon. There were spikes requests for secession in 2004 as well as 2009 I think. It's not going to happen because they'll need at least 25,000 in order to warrant a response from the White House.

And the response will probably be "FUCK YOU"

The ironic thing is that the rest of the south should be begging and pleading texas to stay a part of the usa-
1)Cause we entered the usa of our own volition, meaning that if our state government was actually serious, and not just throwing it's millionth hissy fit, we could legally leave.
2)If we were to leave then the biggest republican state would have left. Meaning that the republican party would get their asses kicked every single election.
3)If we were to leave not only would it spell doom for the republican party, but then the usa would become almost a single party government.

Also it won't happen cause-
1)When bush got re-elected people were claiming they were going to move to canada, now people are claiming they are going to move to canada with Obama's election and most likely very few people are going to actually do it.
2)Texas has had multiple oppurtunities to leave. If Texas didn't secede during the civil rights movement what makes them think they're going to leave just cause someone got re-elected.
3)If the south were to secede then the usa would order all the soldiers and weaponry to leave the south. If the south refused to give the usa their tanks the usa would declare war on them.
4)Texas is full of hot air.
5)Texas is full of hot air.

replace texas with CF and this is all i can see- as far as military goes, no one would be stupid enough to attack the south where almost everyone and their dog has a gun and is trained in the woods at least every season. If the south leaves the north wouldnt be stupid enough to attack for tanks. Honestly man. Honestly.

 

[Aleu]

And northerners don't have guns?

We were stupid enough to start a war with Afghanastan.
Also I highly doubt the usa would just ignore a massive portion of our armed forces going awol.

"Mr Obama, the south just seceded and took a fourth of our military forces and hundreds of billions dollars worth of military equipment"
"Did you ask them nicely for them to give it back?"

 

[dinosaurdammit]

And northerners don't have guns?

Not saying they dont but look at it realistically, the south has far more hunting land and those who hunt. When I think of the north all that comes to mind are cities. Not saying that some do hunt up there but I dont think they do like the south does.

 

[Bliss]

And the North will slap you down again!

 

[dinosaurdammit]

And the North will slap you down again!

Because when they rape, pillage, and burn whole cities down we will just roll right over again. Cool.

 

[Schwimmwagen]

war room is best room c:

Though when war room is in use, you don't wanna be outside.

Let me rephrase this. If the south was seceding and your husband got orders to relocate or be labelled as a traitor which would he chose?

 

[dinosaurdammit]

Him? Honestly he says fuck the us, he really only does it for the job because there isnt anything else out there. He hates the us because they basically just circle jerk and never do anything worth a damn. In all honesty he would probably want us to move to outlands of alaska or canada. That's just him though.

 

[Aleu]

If the South is going to secede then I want the hell out even more. Fuck the south and their bass-ackwards crap. The US would probably be better off anyway.

 

[Smelge]

Dear America,

Please round up all your retards and throw them into the Pacific.

Yours,

The rest of the world.

We were not properly added to the Union, this is true, and, honestly, just for what land and resources and FUCKING NASA that we have (I mean, ... Whether we could keep that shit, questionable), I think we'd have the best odds at actually being a god damn half-assed successful country but that's just some estimation I threw out of my ass five minutes ago without really thinking about it.

But Perry or some other son of a bitch made it so that we can't actually use that "We were annexed, we can leave," thing anymore.
On the other hand there's all this hot air about whether THAT is valid. I will have to find exactly what I'm talking about but I'm going to wager money that some political derpbag patched up that little loophole.

The last time we bowed out we got reamed up the ass for it, but in terms of infrastructure we were essentially a third world country so ... It's not like the fight was fuckin' fair. Then they gave us Edmund J. motherfucking Davis and curbstomped the hell out of us even more. Seriously, for a laugh, read our Constitution. IT'S AWFUL. You know those moments where you read disclaimers and instructions and see insane shit that makes you ask, "WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED THAT THAT IS IN THERE?" Yeah, yeah, that for about 200 pages.

Also, Aleu, not to start a pompous internets fight but what the hell is wrong with the South?

ETA: Oh, I'm sorry, you live in FLORIDA.

HA HA HA

 

[Dreaming]

Oh man I heard about this crazy shit, all I can say is that it's pretty damn hilarious.

I honeslty don't understand how US politics work, so all I can do is sit back and watch knowing that nothing will be accomplished here (do it European style, terrorize innocent people and blow shit up.... works most of the time)

 

[CannonFodder]

Oh man I heard about this crazy shit, all I can say is that it's pretty damn hilarious.

American politics in a nutshell-
Get nothing done, then blame the opposing party for why nothing gets done and when your political candidate loses threaten to leave the country or in the case of states threaten to secede.
In the end nothing gets done.

ETA: Oh, I'm sorry, you live in FLORIDA.

HA HA HA

Florida is like new cuba- more crazy shit happens in Florida than any other state that I have ever seen on the news.

 

[Saiko]

.... I thought the law/constitution/whatever was amended to remove the option of secession. :/

As far as I'm aware, they're petitioning for something no state (except maybe Texas) can do. >_>

 

[Aleu]

Also, Aleu, not to start a pompous internets fight but what the hell is wrong with the South?

ETA: Oh, I'm sorry, you live in FLORIDA.

HA HA HA

What the hell isn't wrong with the South? Seriously, I don't see why people keep praising it. Everything from the attitude to the god-awful accents I hate.
