Austin Wants To Secede From Texas, Not United States
Posted: November 15, 2012
Thousands of people in Texas have signed a petition asking the United States to allow the state to secede from the union. That isn’t likely to happen, but, if it does, Austin wants everyone to know that they don’t want to be grouped together with their fellow Texans.
The people of Austin filed a petition this week in the hopes of seceding from Texas.
The petition reads:
“Austin Texas continues to suffer difficulties stemming from the lack of civil, religious, and political freedoms imposed upon the city by less liberally minded Texans. It is entirely feasible for Austin to operate as its own state, within the United States, in the event that Texas is successful in the current bid to secede. It is important for Austin to remain in the union as to do so would protect it’s citizens’ standard of living and re-secure their rights and liberties in accordance with the original ideas and beliefs of our founding fathers.”
