That is a poll just like the state polls to be removed from the Union. Asked to be removed as a citizen? Give me a break, the Governent won't even deport Illegals. Deport me to where? If they want to try to deport me, I am not hard to find.

I am certianly glad that the signers of the Declaration of Independance didn't have your attitude. No I am not comparing myself to them. What happens to me is far less important than the liberty of the next generations.

The signers of the declaration of Independence were, in fact, asking to be removed as a citizen of Great Britain. Not sure why you are “glad” they didn’t have “my attitude”.

Maybe you misunderstood “remove as a citizen” to mean “physically remove from your state”. That would be silly — if your state seceded from the union, the state would be “removed” already, and the United States would have no reason to then come and remove you from the state.

But what they certainly WOULD do is remove your from the United States — you would no longer be a citizen. You would no longer be considered a member of the country.
If you sign a poll that requests that your state be removed from the union, you are probably asking to be removed from the union, although I guess technically your plan could be to move to a state that is NOT seceding.

If you want to remain a citizen of the United States, you would not sign a petition asking to have your state removed. And if you do, you should expect that government agencies trying to decide loyalty for purposes of security clearances to take that into account negatively.
