The story is misleading, the petitions weren't put forward by any government people, just individuals like you and me. Any American can submit one for any reason, then you have to go get the 25k signatures to back it up. For all we know, these things have been getting submitted on a daily basis for decades. It is a sign of the times though.

What rights? You said you don't want to be part of the US anymore. You gave up all you constitutional protections along with that. Now, please GTFO.

Meaningless petitions, put forth by people who are discontented.
It's the same kind of shit about people who were so pissed off when Bush won his second term, they said they were going to immigrate to Canada.
All a lot of hot air, and nothing more.

Why? They have a right to say whatever they want?
