Is The USA Breaking Up? Petitions seeking approval to 'secede' now come from 47 states

The break up of the good 'ol USA. The border disputes will be a nightmare...

Sadly, I'm from Oregon, land of the insane. There is no hope in this state. Not a single Republican or conservative independent in a statewide seat. Yes, most of the landmass of the state has conservatives living on it. But we have Portlandia to deal with. (It's not just a tv show, they really are that insane.)

Let us Jettison the Portland metro area, and let them keep the name Oregon. Then the rest of the state that is a little less crazy, can become the state of Jefferson.

Then we can leave this God forsaken country and form our own.

A girl can dream can't she?

The people signing these petitions are just like the kid who throws the gameboard because he's losing.
Ya win some, ya lose some, deal with it. You want to tear apart the country and bring about another civil war because your guy didn't win? Seriously? Like the president makes all the decsions anyway... There is this thing called Congress ya know, not to mention the real possibility of the elite...

The majority has spoken, and you should respect their decision as you would expect them to respect yours if your guy won.

All of you who treasonous bastards who wish to secede from the union should grow up and focus on a real bipartisan effort to improve things; do the best you can with what you can control. If you can't put aside your hate to work together to better this once great nation, then simply leave the U.S. Good riddance.

These secession threads are idiotic.

There is a greater chance that Justin Bieber is the Nobody than there is of any state in the U.S making even preliminary moves to secede.

Gosh, you mean the god-fearing white folk in Idaho didn't vote for the scary black man. Who'da thunk it?

Actually they most definitely did try to petition the King for redress of grievances...and only after that failed time and time again, did he...shoot them.

These petitions ask for these states to be allowed to leave "Peacefully"...of course this will go nowhere, and I doubt the White House will even address this seriously, but if it makes people feel better to show their displeasure with the massive amounts of "Voter Fraud" and Many Many other grievances, so be it...
