I'm on the fence with this one. On one hand it's a free speech issue. On the other hand signing a petition to secede is pretty close to renouncing one's citizenship.
Of course, maybe all of these guys would be happier playing 'great white warlord' in a compound in Somalia. Stockpiling AK-47s and tons of ammo is legal there, or at least ignored by a weak government.
On the downside, their president would really be a liberal black Muslim.
