OMG!! Part of Colorado wants to "succeed"!

This might prove to be fun.
A couple decades ago, droves of califonicans moved to Colorado, and promptly began turning it into a liberal hellhole they just left.
The greatest concentration of course, is the front range big cities.

Rural colorado wants to start a new state

Colorado Secession

Several of the rural, predominantly Republican counties of North and and Northeastern Colorado are fed up with the left-leaning laws that Democrats passed this year in the state and want to split from Colorado and form the 51st state: North Colorado.

"Our very way of life is under attack," Weld County Commissioner Sean Conway said on Thursday, 9News reported.

Conway is leading the charge for Weld, Morgan, Logan, Sedgwick, Phillips, Washington, Yuma and Kit Carson counties to split off and form a new state, a plan that was formed at a Colorado Counties Inc. conference earlier this week, according to The Denver Post.

The secession plan is driven by a number of new laws passed in the Democrat-controlled legislature this year, including gun control, the curbing of perceived cruel treatment of livestock to expanded regulation of oil and gas production but the final straw was the signing of Senate Bill 252 by Gov. John Hickenlooper on Wednesday which requires an increase in renewable energy standards in rural areas.

KDVR reports that opponents of that bill have called it a "war on rural Colorado."

In other words, the rural people are being run over for the benefit of the city-folk.

14. Uh. There's a state to the north - it's called Wyoming.

It's as conservative as you want. Move over there. and stroke your ******* guns there.
Better idea...just join up with Wyoming and cut the liberals out.

Secession was floated about fifteen years ago as I recall.  Then, it involved much of the western slope.
It didn't pan out. Shame.

Liberal thinking is a two-legged stool and magical thinking is one of the legs, the other is a combination of self-loating and misanthropy.  To understand it, you would have to be able to sit on that stool while juggling two elephants, an anvil and a fragmentation grenade, sans pin.

DUmmie ****heads, it would do you well to remember your country was born from secession and you might want a plan B in the event these "hicks" you are spitting upon decide to stop selling you food, or ship in your fuel, or...  Get the picture?
"We make men without chests and expect of them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors in our midst. We castrate and then bid the geldings to be fruitful."

C.S. Lewis

A community may possess all the necessary moral qualifications, in so high a degree, as to be capable of self-government under the most adverse circumstances; while, on the other hand, another may be so sunk in ignorance and vice, as to be incapable of forming a conception of liberty, or of living, even when most favored by circumstances, under any other than an absolute and despotic government.

That is the problem I got with the dumbass liberals. They screw up where they live beyond belief, then they move to some other place and proceed to screw it up too.

Texas better watch out. They are next. I read where the Texas gov went to mexifornia trying to drum up companies and people to move there. What is this dumbass thinking? If it was me, I'd go to mexifornia and say "You screwed this place up, stay here and fix it and don't come down our way!!!"

33. That's the only issue I can see that blocks this.

As far as state politics, I would love it if western Washington and western Oregon became one super blue state, and let the eastern halves become one red state. The effect on the national stage is that two senators would go red (WA and OR are reliably blue) but the local effects would be so cool, a liberal Mecca in the Northwest would be created...
:lmao: :lmao: Why not just move there?
Mecca is so liberal, you'd be in heaven. If you survive.

I sure don't blame the rural Greenies for wanting to break from the rest.  But as far as joining up with Wyoming, we'd only tolerate about the northernmost 10 or 15 miles of it.  The rest is too far gone.  Some good places way east of the front range, a little but not much else.
