An Offer to Peacefully Secede

A politician from Texas has asked gun owners to punish themselves for something they didn’t do:

Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas) on Wednesday afternoon urged people to turn in their guns, arguing it would be an appropriate response to last week’s mass shooting in Newtown, Conn.

“I would personally just say to those who are listening, maybe you want to turn in your guns,” Jackson Lee said on the House floor. “Oh no, I’m not going to take your guns. But look at what Dick’s Sporting Goods did … they wanted to be part of the solution and part of America.”

Let me get this straight… if I don’t turn in my guns then I’m not part of the solution and therefore not part of America? Deal! If I can secede from this country by the simple act of keeping my firearms then I’m entirely on board.

Please, "secede." Just pay your taxes and say you "seceded."

Who will notice? Will anyone care?

See how easy that was. Now march around your house with your GUN. Try not to hurt yourself.

Wow. You succeeded in "seceding."

Oh by the way, when you "secede" will you have any modern day essential services (clean running water, electricity, sewerage, doctors, etc.)?

Some one who has succeeded in seceding? Or are you saying you want to secede so that you can break into peoples' houses to rape and kill?
