Is it too late to let Alabama sucede from the US?

[Miigwech]

Really, that state has never done anything good for the country. Alabama is so backwards, constantly producing idiots like Jeff Sessions and Roy Moore. Let them have their 'dear freedom' once and for all and let the rest of America get a break from the abusive State of Alabama. My apologies to the the DU folks from Alabama.

1. They gotta take Mississippi with them

seriously... I'd let the entire confederacy go if we could arrange a housing swap with Trumpanzees from around the country and liberals and sane people left in the South.

3. That would be great!

2. Let's not judge them until they vote.

It may not be all that likely, but they might actually come through at the last.

5. The media, even MSNBC, has already conceded the race to Moore.

I wouldn't believe any polling data right now.

4. Is it too late to learn how to spell secede?

Just joking.

8. Oh my goodness! I am so glad I am not the only one who saw that.

Lmao.

9. They need to first!

6. They also produced my dad

And my grandfather, and his father, and even his father. My dad left because my mom is white (married in the late 60's).

7. PS

I think NJ, NY, MA should secede this time. Really - I've only lived in two US states (formative years in West German) -

NJ now for 12 years. I seriously think we are different and for example - should not have these folks boots on our necks on gun control, abortion, etc. etc.

States rights.

10. I was produced there.

I think talk of secession requires a complete lack of understanding and empathy toward our fellow citizens. Specially in the manner in which you have just done it.

11. They produced me. And Mississippi and Louisiana raised me.

And George Washington Carver
And Rick Bragg who writes like magic
And those locals who marched in Selma and the children who died in Birmingham
And Doug Jones who convicted their killers
Jim Nabors who bravely came out, married his partner and died today
And considerable Native Americans who were forced out and died on The Trail of Tears
And the many, many, many people who will vote for Jones

And I’m sick of having to point out that the loud and loutish majority overwhelms millions of fine people who don’t deserve your contempt and are harmed by it.

13. Joe Louis, Willie Mays, Hank Aaron, Rosa Parks. nt

[nolabear]

15. Yep. Freedom fighters. Deserving people who also call it home.

[LexVegas]

12. Jesus Fucking Christ.

[ClarendonDem]

14. Not at all

And how about all the other states that are controlled by Republicans, or voted for Trump--Florida, North Carolina, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, West Virginia (which actually split off from Virginia during the Civil War because it supported the Union), the entire midwest basically. The Southwest need to go, the mountain states, parts of Maine.

16. Say! Here are a few Alabama folks!

Fully 1/3 of the AL seafood industry are refugees from Southeast Asia and their descendants.
