    You can't make fun of celebreties for doing this in the past and not for the ones doing it now.
    Though i wouldn't mind if they all went through with it and realized it sucks out there.

    California is split into 2 to get us back to 49 states and then Puerto Rico becomes the new 50th state.
    If we do this, i will become VERY supportive of the border fence.

    And i would immediately like to see them recognized as a hostile nation.

    Hey, if you don't want people to petition you really shouldn't solicit them

    Someone wake me up when more than half of a half of a percent of the population of Texas thinks this is a good idea.

    You can spend a lot of time going over all the petitions on the whitehouse.gov site. Seems crazy is contagious, I especially liked this one https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/pet...award/yJRHMzzB

    And this one is one of my favorites.

    https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/pet...e-was/Ch82VyZ3

    Two young men wrongly being accused of killing a Macon police officer, even though they didn't know he was a law officer.
    Think I am going to start on to disband the Giants and Cowboys and make the Redskins all-time Superbowl champs. You think I can get some support?

    I remember some poll not to long ago that had 15%-20% Texans (somewhere around there) supporting succession. I will try and find it.

    The funny part is that The Republic of Texas was a terrible place. Texas was desperate to join the US because life was terrible as its own country. The history has been greatly romanticized by many here.

    We want to split Virginia into the Commonwealth of Virginia and the State of North Virginia. Also, I like the idea that Austinites want to remain in the US, because that's where I'm moving next year.

    Let Texas deal with Mexico by themselves. Go ahead. It'll be funny.

    Interesting dynamic. New U.S. gets that texas oil, florida beaches, and some good car plants, while the old U.S. gets Hollywood, Silicon Valley, West Virginia coal, and Vermont maple syrup.
