Those are not insignificant numbers.
Why?
Cause this federal gub mint is pathetic.Just shoving crappola down every ones throat thinking they know what is best for everyone on every damned subject.
Throw in the fact that they force me to do things against my Faith and screw em.
F- em
The govt’s only response would be more threats, spying, detentions, etc thus accelerating the demise of the central govt.
I’m “down for the struggle” with “skin in the game.” I’m tired of “openly gay” maggots from the northeast and Caulifphonya telling me how I’ve got to live here in Arizona. It’s none of their damn business.
I’d rather kick out DC and any state who wants to go with them is free to go.
I bet it is a near majority in Texas.
One in four Americans want their state to secede from the U.S., but why?
Barack Obama, not once but twice!
!7 Trillion Dollars in debt.
Obamacare.
Forcing the Homosexual agenda in to our lives and schools.
and several dozen other good reasons.
This is one of those meaningless poll questions, like “Do you think the country is headed in the right direction?”
It lumps together people who want out for exactly opposite reasons.
There isn’t enough room anywhere for me and Mikey Bloomberg, someone has to go!
I’d be happy if PA wanted to secede, but given that the state is dominated by leftists and unions, there’s no way this state would secede.
For a start, I’d be happy to secede from NYC & environs ....
Is there even a democratic mechanism for allowing this? The Feds back in 1861 didn’t think so.
We just want to see what life is like without the federal government’s boot on our necks.
One in Four Americans Wants His State to Secede from the U.S., but Why?
It's possible that's not be the optimal wording. A lot of people probably feel like "If I and people like me are the ones in the right, why should we have to be the ones to go it alone as a single state? OUR vision is the one more in keeping with that of the founding fathers. WE should he the ones to keep the nation!" so they might be more likely to answer in the affirmative a question about expelling other states rather than their own seceding.
Minnesota couldn’t possibly secede from the union, it is in too deep. Once gov’t cut funding, it’d curl up into the fetal position and suck its thumb.
Why? Why not? There gets to be a point in which there is nothing to lose. Open borders, no rule of law, a government that has devolved into a banana-republic run by socialist elites funded by crony capitalism, a populace that has become so spineless that it cowers before every ludicrous PC dictate, and a sick, poisonous culture that promotes nothing but deviancy and homosex.
What is really left of America to want to remain a part of?
The south may rise again. Just wait till I can move there first please.
Antietam.
This question has been tried and settled in American blood. The answer is no.
