South Cacalacky gets even luckier. Now the Christian Aryans want to secede

Freddy the Pig, Ogre, thanks for the info! Makes me want to go read up on some more of that history I never was taught in school. That is indeed a gorgeous wilderness area. If I’m ever in that part of the world it’s definitely oin the must-see list.

Yet another benefit of living in a blue to the roots state like Massachusetts – ain’t a chance in hell those nutcases would ever try to set up their u/dystopia here.

You know, sawing laterally through the continental crust–or through the Mohorovičić discontinuity–through the length of Florida would be the most colossal engineering job ever attempted. But if you did, it would float all right, on down the mantle. At a rate of inches per century. This public service announcement has been brought to you by the Straight Dope “Fighting ignorance since 1973 (it’s taking longer than we thought)”

In the interests of accuracy, it must be pointed out that Disney*land * is located in Anaheim, CA. Florida is home to Walt Disney World, an entertainment complex twice the size of Manhattan, which incorporates four theme parks, two water parks, twenty resort hotels, the human behavior modification test colony of Celebration, and miles of subterranean passages which communicate directly with the Deros of the Hollow Earth. They’ve also had over 35 years to accumulate weapons-grade fissionables from the nuclear reactor that Florida gave them, and their imagineers are experts in the field of head-of-state robotic duplicate technology. Screw with them at your peril.

Also, the limestone bedrock of Florida’s state boundary has been specially reinforced against peninsular detachment ever since the “Rebel Rabbit” incident of 1949.

Maybe, but you New Englanders have a dystopia project of your own: the loony libertarians trying to take over New Hampshire. :stuck_out_tongue:

Well as long as we’re cataloging secessionist movements, let us not forget the State of Franklin, consisting of the mountainous counties of what is now eastern Tennessee, and which seceded from North Carolina following the American Revolution.
