The State of.... South Florida??
 

Well I believe it hasn't been posted here yet.

A few mayors in Broward cities want to split Florida into 2 states.

Its been getting some attention in the media down here lately and I though I'd share :p.. And actually, 54% of the people who took a poll in this article online thought it was a good idea.

Now would be a good time, I guess, with the national guard out of town.

Northern Virginia feels the same way about the rest of the state.

If this happens, West PA & East PA are next. Breezewood = PA Mason/Dixon line.

What about the UP of Michigan? Do they still want to be their own state? (I think they wanted to be called "Superior").

Maybe Georgia can annex North FL and leave us alone here in Tennessee. (The GA state legislature wants to move the TN/GA line to include part of a lake to help ease their water shortage.)

Charlie Crisp is acting like this dude is crazy, but he's really crazy like a fox! I've been saying that there needs to be a North Florida and a South Florida for at least 10 years now. I always had the dividing line being somewhere between Ocala and Orlando. North Florida, however, needs to be its own state and not connected to Alabama or Georgia, since those other two states will drag us down.

LOLOL

i bet the cubans would be all over this

That's crazy.

yeah, I know. That is where my reference to the Nat'l guard came in.

to explain: the aol guy said "what would you do if i got a group together to push this" and gilmore (i think he was gov. at the time) said "I'd send in the national guard. what would you do about that?"

It won't happen, in either state. They would just have the same problems again and again and we can't just keep adding new states willy nilly. If South Florida seccedes from Florida, they seccede from the United States, they should have to re-apply for Union.

I support this plan...so long as only North FL remains in the United States.

somewhere I read (don't remember) and don't know if its true ... but I remember reading somewhere that Texas has the right to split itself into 5 states if it wants ...

also I always thought there should be Baja California and Alta California ... So. Calif. is so different from No. Calif

I heard something about that a while ago, but back then it was declared false. But, according to Snopes, there's some truth to it.

Learn something new every day :D

From there South, it's pretty much Cuba anyway. I'm for it.
