RHODE ISLAND DECLARES SECESSION! In the midst of a nation-wide disaster, the governor of Rhode Island has declared unilateral secession and war with the government of the US. "My loyal Rhodians are withdrawing to Aquidneck and Conanicut Islands," said governor Alex Ackerwith in a public announcement this morning. "The US government has failed us. Any attempt by the US to intervene in our affairs will result in military action from the Narragansett Government. Frankly, I don't think they can get their shit together enough to challenge us."
