Threats of a state seceding from the country, or a part of a state creating its own state due to political differences, typically dont go anywhere.
Well, except for that one time in the 1860s.
Texas and Vermont both threatened to do so out of frustration with the policies of George W. Bush and Barack Obama, but both remain part of the United States. There have been several attempts over the last few decades to carve Californian up into as many as six separate states.
Now, some in Southern Florida are toying with the possibility of launching a secession effort from the northern part of the state.
Why would the heavily liberal area consider sacrificing their share of all that sweet, sweet, Disney related tax revenue? Apparently its because the government in Tallahassee isnt doing enough to combat climate change.
South Miami Mayor Walter Harris believes that rising sea levels due to global warming will cause the everglades to disappear and possibly lead to a nuclear disaster.

Haven’t sea levels risen only about 1 inch over the last 100 years?
More eco-hysteria over nothing.

I agree, but let’s spend that money on a fence to keep them penned up in south Florida (aka Cuba Norte).

And even if this fairy tale were true, just how would sceceeding from the State help things? This is just a grandstanding "I care more about the environment than you" stunt.

On second thought, I agree with the fense, with a wall and moat. My suggestion would be to place it on a latitude just south of the space center.

Amen, a fence with armed guards. And shoot anything that crosses it.

South Miami Mayor Walter Harris believes that, because he grew up in a home that rejected Jesus Christ, he can establish whatever fantastical religion he wants to something different in his life ... 'cause he's the mayor !!!
