Nonsense

Really? Because the sponsors of the bill are the delegation from the Lakes Region.

Quite a stretch.

Sponsored by Sylvia, and endorsed in a public letter by Howard.

They lead the delegation, and only hold their leadership seats because the other members supported them for such.

It isn't like we have seen any public letters from the delegation speaking negatively about it.

Given the lack of a “politics” forum on winnipesaukee.com , I propose some other place for it.

I think secession is less about politics... as it really doesn't matter what party proposes it or why... and more about the effects it could have on the local area.

It isn't much different than discussing any other proposal before government.

It's more far reaching than the Boston Globe. They got the report from msn.com news

A slow news day spawns stories like this.

In Texas v. White, the Supreme Court ruled unilateral secession unconstitutional, while commenting consent of the states could lead to a successful secession.

These state reps in the NH legislature have a better chance to re-litigate the July 2, 1832 to August 5, 1835 ..... Republic of Indian Stream ..... make it independent and detached from New Hampshire .... this was somewhere, way-the-heck up north .... oh wait, it already is basically independent and detached from New Hampshire .....

......https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republic_of_Indian_Stream ..... and improve the trails, THERE, to make it a snowmobile & atv GO-TO spot ...... just show them that snowmobile & atv money!

From the article, "When you hear crazy knocking at the door, you slam it shut".

I wish more people thought this way.

Once again its going no where but its winter and not a lot to talk about

You know, after reading this whole thread, I've come to believe that secession would be possible. I mean it's hard to imagine anyone in Washington wanting to keep NH in the union.

John Mercier · 01-27-2022, 01:59 AM

I don't think they would want to keep us... more we have problems without them.
