Full title of petition: "Peacefully grant the State of Louisiana to withdraw from the United States of America and create its own NEW government." Posted on Drudge.
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..."
The Yankees wont attack because they are sitting ducks. All those old reactors up in the NE are just big fat targets that can be taken out real easy. Did you know that during Hurricane Sandy we had a reactor loss external power and switch to emergency diesel generators to prevent meltdown ? Kinda weird that we all did not hear about that, right ?
Thanks!
Noting is ever truly settled. Once any part of the Constituion is cast aside by the ones currently in power for their own goals, they can not force all others to abide the sections of the Constitution as they chose.
That is solely the reason war was initiated against the seceding Confederate States, to FORCE them to agree to rule benefiting the northern States.
In the Civil War the north held the majority of industrial power whereas the South was primarily agriculrtural and even to a large degree “subsistance” agricultural. Such war now by the so called Blue States against seceding States would not have a similar result simply because the actual balance of power. In 1860 the north would not have tried enforcing their say had the industrial power been equal.
Of course now there may be some chance nobama would attempt to enlist the aid of our sworn enemies such as Putin and the Arabs (I do not mention the UN as they have never shown much aptitude at successful war, being more or less low paid and poorly lead mercenaries), but again the balance of power would be with the seceding citizens who were inspired by the goal of their true and just freedom, not conscripted and short of nuclear attack against the so called Red States, those international interlopers would not prevail as the north almost did not prevail in 1864.
Noting = Nothing...
“Boot on the neck coming soon to the State of Louisiana”
Which boot?
1. The fat welfare momma boot?
2. The boot carried by the 30 IQ rappers who can’t hold a glock straight?
You tell me.
For a long time I’ve thought THEY could have all the ‘blue’ cities and counties and WE take all the red counties (not sure there are any red cities). See how far that takes them.
Non-starter. The takers will invade and continue to steal from the producers.
The states didn’t ask the last time, they just did it.
Have we fallen so far as to ask the federal government to leave the union?
