of course... whatever cannot be dealt with in a rational response can always be substituted with snark. your answers reek of small mind and little character

Secession is a rational response?

Because they had to show a picture ID. One dude whipped his out and said "I need to hurry up and vote" and the guy running it told him he could make it to Texas if he hurried, because he wasn't registered in Florida.

My picture ID is from Vermont yet I voted in Missouri.

At any rate this doesn't answer if the people signing these petitions are being ID'd or not.

Why is this being treated as news?

I can create a petition on that site requesting that we become a part of North Korea if I want to.

11 pages of wasted conversation.

Look at the people in this thread who are taking it seriously and you'll have your answer.

I think we're all missing the bigger picture here, and that is that our wonderful president is bringing us all together like he said he would four years ago.

Do you say the same about those who said if a certain person was elected president, they were going to move to a foreign country?

You can move anywhere and still retain your citizenship. I have friends who live all around the world but are still American citizens.

These people have decided that they no longer want to be an American citizen.

It's called state pride, you yankee.

Some of you are delusional to think the .gov will just allow people to continue living on "their land" without paying for it in some way.

Squatter's rights!

Actually still occasionally relevant today. I know the state of Florida has had some problems with people moving into remote parts of the everglades, building a house, and living there long enough that by the time the government finds them they arent allowed to kick them out. Not sure what the stipulations are

Native Americans came from Russia.

To an election result? No. To over a century of unconstitutional government? You tell me.

These petitioners have willfully imposed their narrow minded personal beliefs on other Americans for countless generations. Many of these people have no doubt, proudly worn tee shirts that said "America, Love It or Leave It!"

Now that their FOX bubble has been busted, petitioners no longer want to participate in America's great democratic experiment. For them, apparently, America and democracy are only great when they are the winners. What happened to the US being the greatest nation on earth? Not so long ago, petitioners, were quick to say others weren't "Real Americans", "Time to take back America", now these same individuals want to break the country apart?

Seems to me, petitioners are "Sunshine Patriots", yellow bellied and spineless. Their first instinct is to cut and run, when thing don't go their way. They are nothing more than cowards and represent the worst aspects of America, not the best. Petitioners are little more than modern day Benedict Arnolds. Hopefully, history will remember them and their act of treason just as fondly.

Petitioners, do "Real Americans" everywhere a big favor and heed your tee shirt's advice...

America, Love it, or Leave it!

Unconstitutional to the branch that was put in place to decide what is & isn't constitutional, or unconstitutional to a bunch of people who... what... just happened to start signing petitions when their guy lost the election?

Funny how that tends to happen, eh?

8 years of Bush, largest expansion of government in 50 years, not a peep.

Lost an election: Tea Party! We're sick of this big government!

Lost election again: We're even more sick of it now! Secession!

The next time they win an election, they'll forget all about how much they hate the government.
