Louisiana is one of the richest states when it comes to resources. With a decent amount of energy reserves, tremendous refining capabilities, a large percent of the Strategic Reserves stored here, access to the Gulf of Mexico, pipelines, the supertanker loop, a large regional Halliburton stronghold, control over the entry to the Mississippi River, large amounts of farm land, abundant fisheries, and a clean and abundant water supply (for now).... there is NO WAY that the fed would allow even the thought of succession to advance. They would kill every citizen in Louisiana to maintain control over the state's resources. The state's have become far too weak both financially and militarily to stand any chance. Any person advancing this will become a terrorist. |

NewsUpdater User ID: 4458411 United States 11/10/2012 11:08 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | this is an excellent Idea and the Citizens of the Louisiana and all the other prominant southern states have the right do petition to secede for their own benefit. The ideas is great, I am all for it, and would move down south if the secede because the United States is done financially, morally, and will crumble within 10 years. The Feds of course would move to smash the southern states militarily if they did this, but its well worth it. Freedom isnt free, and must be fought for to have. You either fight for your freedom, or sit down and shut up. Theres no in between. Fighting means actual fighting, not just mouthing off about it all the time. What are the facts? |

Quoting: waxonwaxoff If you look at the sinatures, I would say probably much less than half are actually in LA.

Many small states in the Northeast do not have the resources to survive and thrive on their own. I was referring to the fact that LA has VAST resources and s very strategic location. Every state has something to offer, LA just happens to have plenty of what is NEEDED. Louisiana would be a rich nation. |

The whole state could blow. Whos gonna help them if they do? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 3694399 Are you kidding? After Katrina, BP and the COUNTLESS other failures in our state by the feds they have proven incapable of repairing anything. They only exist down here to cover things up so their corporate buddies can sleep well at nights knowing that their profits are secured. We would rather take care of ourselves.....even if half of the state blew up I would rather be helped by Mexico and Cuba. |

Quoting: mrclean 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..."
