I got a bad feeling about these petitions for secession
I get a weird feeling these secession petitions are going to spark civil unrest.

I just have a bad a feeling about this, certainly since only 24k people are needed to sign it to get an official response.

That doesn't account for the entirety of the state, and what about the people that haven't even heard about these petitions for their very own states? This is a big deal, a state leaving the Union.

What about the people that do want to secede? As opposed to those that don't?

I think it's one of the many covers for something. Or they're throwing this in to further confuse the general population.

Maybe they only cared about getting the names and addresses of those most motivated politically, those most displeased with the status quo, the organizers, the leaders, those ... they would deem a threat.

Which would of course be furthered quite easily by simply assuming that those who signed first were 1, most informed and 2, most motivated and 3, therefore dangerous.

Re: I got a bad feeling about these petitions for secession
The government will give you a solution, they will propose a constitutional change to instill a “no confidence vote” irreparable weakening the government forever.


People not understanding what it really means to the future of the country or the constitution will think it is a good idea and go along with it assuming it is a good solution for their anger.

Re: I got a bad feeling about these petitions for secession
I agree with ea of you and your comments. The wise person understands that Almighty God is in control. There are reasons for these things to occur and can be backed by Biblical Scripture.

The deception of the masses continue to be presented in subliminal, psychological and spiritual mis-direction. Those who are awake and looking on are - I am sure - both amazed and truly saddened to observe the souls which are being taken purely by ones refusal or ignorance of the Truth.

Re: I got a bad feeling about these petitions for secession
I believe there are any number of things that could come of this. But, I believe it boils down to two categories.

A) Nothing. There's an official response that really doesn't amount to anything but an understanding the frustrations of a people that are suffering from the hardships of today. And that rather than trying to separate, we should focus on uniting, blah blah blah. /slobber

B) Something. And I believe that if there's a legitimate response to this, it won't be a simple black and white response. Under this category, I feel that anything could happen.

I'm a firm believer that these "governing bodies" that so wish to absolve sovereignty are strictly adherent to the "ordo ab chao" philosophy of implementing their own ideas of change and progression.

That's why I do not see these petitions as something to laugh about, or scoff off. We live in very interesting times indeed, and to deny the possibility of something very bad coming from this would be naive. People are on edge these days, by the masses. But, just like I said. I will not claim it will be either a negative/positive outcome, only that I do not get a positive feeling from this movement.

I have trust in God, and I believe in the Illuminati.

With that, I know that nothing is as it initially seems. Such that coincidence becomes laughable, as plausible deniability has allowed TPTB to perform right before our eyes.

My trust is only in God's plan.

In a sense I agree with this.

People are trying to do this in a civilized, non-violent way. I can't say this is a bad thing. Surely if this goes unnoticed, then there is truly only one remaining option.

Re: I got a bad feeling about these petitions for secession
You can argue the details, concepts or reasons for these secession issues, but you cannot argue that the last time this issue was promoted in our government the result was a Civil War!

Over the last four years the sellout scum in DC (R's AND D's) have promoted an agenda of division and discord between races, classes, states and Feds and just about every damned splinter group conceivable. Do any of you really think the goal of this was not to bring about civil unrest/war? Really, because if you are that poor at putting one and one together to make two, then you should stay off of this site and switch to iCarly.com, it is more your speed.

Re: I got a bad feeling about these petitions for secession
I think the thing with these petitions is that it's riling up people that are already upset and talking about a new civil war. I have seen comments on non-conspiracy, heck even non-conservative type websites talking about stuff like this. I know people talk about tipping points on GLP but I don't always look in those threads but...could this actually be it?

Could be, for sure. Thing is, there IS a tipping point, THAT cannot be denied. Your typical sheeple coward may say that there is no such thing, that people will NEVER be fed up enough to DO anything, that the American people will allow ANY and EVERYTHING to be done to them without standing up and saying no, but that is just ridiculous. Of course there is a tipping point, and it certainly seems like it is the mission of the scum at the top to push the country closer and closer to it every damned day.

Someday they may even succeed in finding it. Of course they are the government and as such are generally incompetant, so perhaps not. Only time will tell, but I feel that time is running out before we get there myself.

All they have to do for my prediction to come true it show how much the politicians make off these wars they start.

Then the “tipping” point will be when they pour both sides in to the same pot and we all agree to cut our nose off to spite our face because the politicians suck.

The real people in power, the ones with lifetime appointments will have even more power than they do now.

Thanks for the kind words Hab. This country was well thought out by a great group of God fearing, intelligent individuals that had a fair deal for the common man as their goal. They did good!

Unfortunately, like all good things, it has to end. To collapse from within as all governments always do, especially when corruption and greed become SOP.

Gordon Gecco gave us our nation's epitath years ago when he spoke his famous line that "Greed is good". Death by Hollywood, who'd a thunk it?

Re: I got a bad feeling about these petitions for secession
Personally I am against secession and I think those who want to secede are pussies.

Abraham Lincoln saw that if the South had been allowed to secede it would have become a proxy to the foreign powers in Europe. Whose to say if the East seceded from the West the West coast becomes a proxy to China, or the East Coast becomes a proxy to Russia? So, where would that leave the Central United States land locked without a seaport?

F-king anarchist are not patriots, but a bunch of cry babies trying to flip the apple cart. If any state secedes it is not only the end of this country but we will get invaded and occupied by a foreign power.

People need to stick it through and keep this country United.

People have talked about TPTB creating a civil war senario for the country to battle through.

Those same people who talked about it are now creating it for themselves by buying into this liberals vs conservatives mindset and absolutely freaking out like sore losers when their party lost.

If these people just went with it we could avoid any problems that all of this childish nonsense could create.
