A libertarian country has formed right in the heart of America!

The Lakotah Indians have seceded from the US

One good thing came out of all this for me. I have found my new home. I had never heard this before and I just spent 40 minutes reading up on this. The Lakotah Indians are establishing a libertarian, tax-free government right in the heart of America. They have the legal rights as stated in the US Constitution to secede and have been recognized by all international countries except the US, Canada and Australia. They welcome everyone to join their new country. All people who currently live within their borders have been offered citizenship. They will issue their own passports and driver's licenses.

I am dead serious. I will be doing more research into this and will join the Lakotahs in the fight for their sovereignty. They have a very solid legal case and I only hope that in this day and age, the US will not be able to resort to using force. Please join with me.

exactly how libertarian is it?

 

[disciple]

Sounds appealing.

 

[CrazyRonPaulSupporter]

It gets better. Guess who made this happen. Russel Means. The same Russel Means that Ron Paul beat back in 1988.

Russel Means also played Chingachgook in the Last of the Mohicans film.

 

[EvilEngineer]

Hmm... I'd move there.

Good for them. I support them fully and possibly by becoming a citizen if they'll have me.

Yeah, Russel Means is an active Libertarian party member. His real name is Oyate Wacinyapin.

The goverment is being worked out right now. They have issued a Declaration of Continuing Independence and are in the process of writing a constitution.

From everything that I have read so far, this is completely legal according to our Constitution and the Fort Laramie Treaty of 1851 that the US government has signed with the Lakotah people recognizing the sovereignty of their nation. The facts are, that the US and it's citizens have been in constant violation of that treaty ever since, but that does not change the terms of the treaty. The US Constitution still recognizes the independance of the Lakotah nation. The only way the US could stop this is through deadly force. They cannot stop it by law.

They have said on their website that they will take all comers into their new Republic. All you have to do is renounce your citizenship and become a Lakotah. They do not care about race. They want all entrepreneurs to be involved in their new country.

Right now they are still getting started, so citizenship is not possible yet, but you may want to keep it in mind once it is available. This is a great time to start something new and amazing. You could be a pioneer of a new country(even though it is actually a very old country).

If this gets off the ground and the government doesn't start killing these people I'd become a citizen.

 

[Xonox]

Is this really serious? I'm totaly moving there.

 

[Onethreezer0]

This is wonderful.

 

[ceakins]

They'd have to have a fat internet pipe.

 

[CountryRoads]

In other news, the United States has started sending free blankets to the indians to congratulate them.

 

[Xonox]

Just remember people... the last time part of the United States tried to suceed there was a civil war...

 

[philipsantamaria]

I wonder if they will accept American Tourism.

Maybe we need something like that to wake American masses out of their dope haze.

if the Government responds with Deadly Force... I think there will be an uprising against the Government.
