28,000 signatures in 5 days. Gov says it will issue a press conference if it hits 100k in 30 days. Hope it does...although, probably will fizzle out.

This could set off a welcome precedent though.
Same with Texas who threatens to secede every year or so.....I don't think anyone cares.
I have noticed that a lot of secessionist movement are in really poor areas of the country that are much more of a burden to society then they want to believe.
