Agreed! Hey maybe we should start a petition ............

[SeekAndFind]

This:



As Opposed to this:

we petition the obama administration to:

Peacefully grant the State of Texas to withdraw from the United States of America and create its own NEW government.

The US continues to suffer economic difficulties stemming from the federal government's neglect to reform domestic and foreign spending. The citizens of the US suffer from blatant abuses of their rights such as the NDAA, the TSA, etc. Given that the state of Texas maintains a balanced budget and is the 15th largest economy in the world, it is practically feasible for Texas to withdraw from the union, and to do so would protect it's citizens' standard of living and re-secure their rights and liberties in accordance with the original ideas and beliefs of our founding fathers which are no longer being reflected by the federal government.

Created: Nov 09, 2012

Issues: Civil Rights and Liberties, Economy, Government Reform

No. You must not have seen all the GTFO posts whenever secession came up (I think it started in the discussions about that lefty book, Better Off Without ‘Em)
They started this last summer or before.
As if they have any right to America. They hate America & everything it stands for. That’s why they’re doing everything they can to “transform” it into a communist state.

[MrB]

“assclown” is such an underrated description of the left...

[fabian]

yeah, please...no President has the authority to strip us of our constitutional right. If he tries, you will see warfare.

[TigersEye]

_______ everyone who voted for 0bama.

[gotribe]

I want to petition the WH for an obamaphone in the event they strip me of my citizenship. Or at least a Wal-Mart gift card. They can keep the citizenship.

[Eye of Unk]

Deport me to Australia, first class please!
I need a vacation where its warmer than Alaska.

[Secret Agent Man]

Ha!

The brown shirts have no idea how far over the line they have crossed.Who knew asking the state to exercise their 10th amendment rights could cause other citizens to lose their minds.I’d like them to be very afraid that someone would hack it and find each of the 2000 signatories on their silly little petition.

[dmz]

Like those who have excommunicated themselves with actions against the teaching of the Catholic church, you will simply have to self-exile.

[Elpasser]

Um...what about the explicit constitutional protections for the right to petition the government and peaceably assemble?

"Stripping Citizenship and Exile for Anyone Who Signs Petition to Secede"

LMAO!!

I'm surprised that they didn't suggest The Secession Signers be rounded-up in wooden freight cars and shipped to gas chambers.

The Nazis were socialists after all, and weren't prone to finding peaceful negotiated solutions to just about anything.

[Evil Slayer]

If obamahitler thinks he can do something like this, he is definitely insane.

[chris_bdba]

Those too! ;) Can we petition the government to go after all of those who have signed it for violating our civil rights?

[Blood of Tyrants]

It can be revoked, but only from naturalized citizens.

[MrB]

+1

Indeed, that’s what going Galt is - self exile, cold war for independence.

[tickedoffnow]

Wal-Mart gift card?? Where do I sign?

[tophat9000]

Fine..lets sign up all the illegals..

[Arlis]

Uh, if you haven’t noticed, the lawless one makes his own
laws and ignores any/all he wants......

No doubt he could do this by Exec. order and the Repubs would do nothing about it.

I’m sure it would include seizure of all the assets of the secessionists.......
