You have to admit the death of Hawaii is a pretty blatant example of US backed griefing/trolling :P.

Indeed. I wonder when we're going to get DEATed :unsure:

No. We're not depending on the "governing body that eons said land" to let them go. It's not their choice.


It most defintily it. Those territories that want to break away are little more then administrative divisions. If the central government wishes to keep them in line for being so treasonous then they have the right to do so.

Also, apologies for the spelling mistake. I mean "governing body that owns said land".

In capitalism, you pretty much have a 50/50 chance of being rich or poor. In communism, it's 1/99. What makes people think they have the luck/skill to become the 1% if they can't even succeed in a 50/50 society???

Like Benuty said, do you think a government which has, for long amounts of time, mistreated residents of a certain region in their nation going to suddenly say “yeah sure you can guys can go.”

Hint: the answer is no.

Your logic is utterly disgusting.

It's not about legality, if the people want to secede, they will regardless of a law.

Has the thought possibly crossed you that in that case, the people rather rebel and form their territory either, or not break away.

Besides, I'm talking about somehting like if a US state wants to break away, or the Scottish Independence Referendum.
