I know a lot of folks up in Alaska and the AIP is hardly something you could compare to the Black Panthers. Apples to apples, not apples to scarlet runner beans.


Y'all explain to me what the deal is with her membership and the AIP? Are they on the terror list or something? ;)
I looked at a few websites, and I was like, so?? what is the big deal? Those people just want a choice, and in the meantime, less government, which is IMO, a good thing. I don't think anyone really believes they would choose to leave the United States, and besides, we all know what would happen if they tried. I mean, can you imagine?? We would invade Alaska for the oil!! It would be the Second Civil War! But I would bet that if that were the case, those moosehunters would have an advantage!

But seriously, what is the problem? I realize that some say they are secessionist, but that is only one option of 4. I think they just want a choice. In the meantime, they are a state, the people are citizens, the territory and it's resources belong to the United States.
Doesn't California and Texas have something similar? I think Hawaii does, too. Enlighten me.
