As the founding fathers of the United States of America made clear in the Declaration of Independence in 1776:
"When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation."
"...Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or abolish it, and institute new Government..."

If they’re up against a state seceding, I’d not be surprised to see a state capitol blown away, just to crush morale.
One clean tac nuke is all that takes.
Do I have to move there to sign this?
Considering that the largest percentage populations of blacks are still in the deep south...that blue line through the South on the county map....the Federal Govt would take it on as a civil rights case to “protect” the minorities in the states. It would be portrayed as a return to the 50s, and half the population of the country would believe it.
I am of Wisconsin Norwegian descent. The early Norwegians were strongly Republican because they were opposed to slavery. It’s only the later generations that have become Democrat and certainly not all of them. The two Norwegian-descended politicians who became known on the national scene were Democrats however. I am referring to Humphrey and Mondale.
should we just hire the US trained Iraqis to do the heavy lifting for us?
Not in Louisiana but I’m in. If my state does not join will move to a state that does.
what if we ask our state legislatures to be a clearing house for all fed taxes and then they can keep an amount sufficient to pay for all the unfunded federal mandates and send the rest on to DC?
Nullification was tried before, it didn’t turn out so good.
I married into a Norwegian family. I can affirm your empiracles, and can further state that they are impervious to logic.
By the way, this is the same country overrun by the Nazi’s (i.e., they’ve seen how socialism ends up). This means, very much like the Jews, they are impervious to learning from either history or their mistakes.
Now, I’m Irish and Portuguese, so at this point, I have to put the bag of rocks down and by some new glass for the house I live in. My family in CA is all liberal. Everyone of them have government jobs, or retired from government jobs. My Norwegian family here - same thing, except one married a US Senator and then became a lobbyist, another became a tort lawyer.
My brother in law, is the only one in the family who actually works for a private company. He’s a beer and wine salesman. Hard worker, but he’s got huge issues, many of which stem from growing up in a house full of elitist liberals. My FIL is a teacher, then a union pres, then a professor. My MIL is a school nurse.
I don’t talk a whole lot at family functions. I love my wife, and I love my kids. I met her, frankly, during a time when almost nobody identified themselves with an ideology. The advice I have for my kids is that your ass tends to follow your head, so a person’s political ideology is likely more important than how good he or she is in the sack.
So, it's the Norwegians. And all along, I thought it was the Amish!
Is this for real?
What a waste of money.
Sucks
One clean tac nuke is all that takes.
The same can be said of DC - and I don't think it's a stretch to believe that some states have the military capability to overtake federal defenses and take control of nukes sitting within their borders.
Besides, I don't think that nuking a state capital would have the effect that they might think it would have. For me, it would drastically increase my resolve. And, it would take out many of the very constituency that the left caters to - the freeloader population.
Thanks, but all we really want is the panhandle.
Got my lunch packed to transit "it's own time".
Wow 270 signatures.
Yep, a nuke in the state capitols would clean out any remaining “bluesters”,
and the gov’t and control would further disperse to the localities, counties, cities, townships, etc,
where it belongs.
Was that the last Republican dominated major metro area?
