I visited the Eastern Shore in May to eat crab cakes. They sold T Shirts saying.... This is not Maryland. This is the Eastern Shore.
I bought a Gadsen bumper sticker “Don’t Tread on Me”
The rattlesnake was replaced with a menacing blue crab
Succession?
Of course, this will never happen. The counties that want out are the ones that provide most of the tax revenue to feed the rest. (I can only speak for Maryland, but I would bet it’s the same for Colorado.)
Hope this works..i
There is no “amicable”.
It will all come down to one survivor.
Heard chickenlooper on the radio yesterday addressing a group up in NW Colorado. (Trying to mend fences) he said “...I want you to feel like you’re being represented...) I thought it was significant in that he didn’t say he wanted to make sure their interests were represented, only that they feel like it. I think a bit of the truth slipped out there...
The disgust and revulsion of the communist Demonic Party and its vile, parasitic “taker” class seem to be pushing more and more people to action. This increasing tension seems to remind me of the U.S. around 1860 or so....
Colorado had a vote this month about the succession, and it failed....DAMMIT!
While I agree that parts of states have the right to secede and become new states I think from a pragmatic perspective they would be better off simply becoming parts of different states. For example I wonder if the recent vote in Colorado would have gone differently if the question were “shall county X seek to be annexed by Wyoming” rather than to seek separate statehood. While getting Colorado and Wyoming to agree to that would be challenging, it would be less challenging than getting Congress to agree to another state.
Didn’t the Colorado effort fizzle because fewer than half the counties that held the referendum voted for the split?
United we stand, divided we fall. All going to the left's plan, though I have a hard time faulting anyone for wanting to split off and create a new government that will, hopefully, just leave everyone alone to live their lives, and not force them to support those who refuse to support themselves.
If at first you secede, try try again!
Maybe by the time he is out of office, 0bama will have his 57 states!
Not sure what this will do. Unless they’re talking about being independent nations, they’ll be just another state for a predatory federal government to have its way with.
People are desperate to get away from the nanny fascist in big government. The control freaks are suffocating America.
Not sure separation is a viable answer.
Yes, it will help for a while, but eventually, the same liberal mindsets they are separating from will encroach on them again.
If the separation mode becomes prevalent, a century from now, city-states will be controlled by libs and fly-over country will be controlled by more conservative types. Most of the political power structure resides, even now, in the cities, not in fly-over country.
It would seem that the more conservative types are giving up more than they would be gaining. ‘We can’t beat you in the elections, so we’ll just leave.’ The trouble is, especially if those who leave manage to create wealth, libs will find ways to get their share — if not on the state levels, then by way of the Federal level.
I thought that Colorado voted this down in November election. I live in Maryland and hope this happens, but can’t see how they survive financially (the new state).
Far northern California too.
Make those idiots live with what they've created.
