"Serving the South Since the Great Collapse"

President Mrmitchell Encourages Gun Use
President Mrmitchell has outlined a plan to encourage gun readiness in the South should a war break out, or should POOPheads refuse our request for Arkansas.
-All hunting restrictions have been removed. There is open season on every animal that can "be killed with a gun." Mrmitchell was quoted as saying, "If there's a bullet in it, it has been legally hunted" at the press conference.
-Gun owning restrictions are now much looser. Citizens can own all the way up to machine guns if they agree to serve in the Army at any time of war.
-Training classes for firearms, especially types used by an organized army, have been opened in all 3 states. Large attendance has made the events a "runaway success."
It is hoped that the programs will raise gun readiness and encourage public support for a trained army.

South repeats demands of Arkansas, Mississippi
President Mrmitchell said that the South would be forced to go to WAR with POOP if it could not give us Arkansas. "Those (synonym for POOP) heads are talking bull(POOP) when they say Arkansans worship that idol pickle. We all know that Arkansans are really true Christian conservatives that are being oppressed under POOP er, uh, oppression." Southerners expect that an invasion of POOP territory would start a rebellion by the Arkansans under POOP control.

Study of Florida done
A study of Florida has determined it not necessary for Southern growth. "It's all only old people," said a scientist who asked to remain unknown.

South offers trade, peace with all nations that oppose POOP oppression of Arkansas and Mississippi
Southern diplomats today announced that "gracious diplomatic relations, free trade, and lasting peace" would be offered to "every nation that helped the Southern cause of reuniting with the two Oppressed States." POOP officials have not commented, although they recently burnt down a series of rural towns in Arkansas and stole Mississippi's pig. POOP denies the latter charge.

If you could offer us weapons, we would agree to a trade of some sort.

I didnt know if it was recent or not when I edited it.

IC:

To The Redneck South: We will gladly trade you our larger caliber weapons such as artillery, as they are of no use to us. Our surrounding enemies are all weak and we need only guns for hunting. If you could send a sampling of female slaves, of the special variety

, I would gladly send you a howitzer to start things off! Though Im not sure how it will get there, perhaps the rail lines are still working? We could always send it by water....

or perhaps some of our machine guns will do instead?

Cascade Republic to Redneck South (SECRET) :

We shall support you in your efforts to liberate Mississippi and Arkansas by selling you supplies and equipment. We have a few fighter planes on the assemly line. In return we ask that you help us open up trade routs. Our goods need safe and maintained routes to travel through, so it would be a great help for both of us if you acted as a stabilizing presence in the midwest and south.

to NAD:

We tried to send the runner back but he didn't make it. Further investigation revealed that there are a number of raider clans operating in former British Colombia, preying off the lcoal population and any traders that attempt to pass through. We are taking steps to rectify this, and as soon as the way is clear we would be happy to trade goods and allow you to ship on our roads.

Cascade Republic calls up army, invades British Colombia to secure roads and railroads and pacify the area. So far Vancouver and Victoria have been incorporated and forces are pressing up along the sea and bringing the transportation routes under control.

The entire Cascade fleet, consisting of a few warships and some transports, has embarked and arrived at the Hawaiian Islands. The fleet was greeted warmly as it brought supplies and goods the Hawaiians have been without these last few years. The arrival was indeed very timely for it is estimated Hawaii only had about 3 weeks worth of Spam left. An alliance has been signed with Hawaii and there rather substantial fleet is helping to regularize flow of goods.

Other News

Rumors have been making their way north of important events in South America. Apparently, a 12-way war is beign fought in Ecuador, Colombia, and Venezuela between the countries' governments, drug lords, and rebels, including a group of mercenaries financially backed by Brazilian warlords. A civil war in Argentina has put a Marxist empire in power there. Mexican refugees, fleeing the Mexico-city based military dictatorship, are attempting to cross into the former border states. The dictator's army has arrived, and is killing anyone they suspect of attempting to leave, as well as generally pillaging the countryside, though no incursions into other territory has yet occurred.

Confederate News
"Serving the South since the Great Collapse"

Name changed: Confederate States of America
Our name was now changed to reflect our history. And that "Redneck South" is a shitty name.

South Carolina Asked to Join Confederacy
Diplomats are now in the capital of South Carolina, asking them to join the Confederacy. Although everyone expects the offer will be accepted, the government there has set up a public vote to determine it. Results are expected to be in tomorrow, with a landslide victory in favor of joining.

Confused Floridans Elect President
In southern Florida, retirees today elected George Bush President, mistakenly voting for him instead of Al Gore. This is surprising, because there were no polling stations or even an election at the time, but hell, it's Florida.

Draft Introduced
The Southern Legislature passed by a vote of 25 - 4 to require all men between 18 and 30 to serve if a state of war is to arise, or if the nation is placed on alert. Soon following the passage, President Mrmitchell placed the nation on alert, vaguely referencing a POOP threat.

Mexicans Flee to Texas
Mexicans have been fleeing the dictatorship that has arisen in Mexico, to Texas, and to Arizona and California. The Confederacy welcomes all immigrants who will join the Confederate Army, and can understand orders to "rush over the border and kill anyone carrying a pickle."

President Mrmitchell Issues Ultimatum
President Mrmitchell today gave his final demand to the POOPheads: that the territories of Arkansas and Mississippi be given to the Confederacy. Mrmitchell repeatedly coughed and yelled "TENESEE!" during the speach also, but he says he has a bad cold.

mrmitchell · January 24, 2004, 21:09

NAD:

We would be happy to trade with you, guns for pretty much anything (need anything that can be farmed?). Your current agreement is acceptable. We assume they can be transported through neutral Former Canada and Former USA.

CASCADE (TOP SECRET):

As soon as we have control of Arkansas, Mississippi, and *COUGH*TENNESSEE*COUGH* damn I've got a bad cold, we will give up our warmongering ways, seeing that we will have been reunited as One South.

Regardless of our current conflicts, we promise you that your shipments and citizens will be carefully protected when inside our nation.

GREATER QUEBEC (TOP SECRET);
We are aware that you want Lousiana. If you agree to give us military and economic support, we will capture Louisiana for you, and give it to you once the War on POOP is over. Except for New Orleans. We'll split it as a kind of dual control thing.

mrmitchell · January 24, 2004, 21:57

SPECIAL EDITION

Armies have gathered on the borders of Arkansas and Mississippi, ready to invade the POOP-Oppressed Territory (POT, and, that's actually not a pun.

President Mrmitchell has given the POOP 16 hours to give over Arkansas, or have it and Mississippi and Tennessee taken by FORCE.

Riots in South Carolina have started. There, the citizens cannot wait for a seemingly far-off vote. They want to join now. South Carolinan governer has not yet acted.

Huge forces have gathered in the Texan side of Texarkana. Smoke was seen rising from the Arkansan side but Confederate forces promise they have not done anything yet.

BREAKING NEWS COVERAGE

New states enter CSA
The Governor of South Carolina has, pressured by protestors demanding it, replied that that state will join the Confederacy effective immediately.

Riots in Oklahoma City have shut down the city and spread statewide due to inefficiency of the territorial governor. The state's residents asked the CSA to allow it to join, and the response is "yes". The CSA now includes Oklahoma, Texas, Alabama, Georgia, and South Carolina. Its population is currently being counted.

Breaking News: The POOP Situation
No official response to the demands has yet been given by POOP leaders. President Mrmitchell's 16 hour period allowed to surrender Arkansas peacefully is already 2 hours shorter. It has been varified that fires have broken out in Arkansan Texarkana, but President Mrmitchell assures the world that this is the oppressed Arkansans' own doing to try to break POOP rule. As POOPheads in the North continue to remain silent on the issue, the grip of government control in Southern POOPland seems to be slipping. Confederate soldiers have yet to do anything, and have not even entered enemy territory.

INVASION!

Once again the great Emporer Nanook-Man sets his army in motion, this time the target is the Northwest Territories of former Canada. The Dene rise up against thier former white occupiers in hopes of securing positions of power in the new government that would spring up in the area. The fight continues and updates will be given as they arise.

To Cascade Republic: Its a shame to hear that our runner didnt make it back, he was actually one of my sisters husbands brothers. He was getting greedy anyway so maybe it was his time to leave this plane of existance. Inform us as soon as trade routes are open and we will engage in trade.

To CSA: We were informed by The Cascade Republic recently that trade routes through former Canada are too dangerous to open trade at this time, however we are sending down the first few machine guns under protection of the Elite Golden Gaurd (EGG). When they arrive all we ask for in return is sex slaves, very hot sex slaves

. But they must also be able to bear children, so none too young and none too old, the infirm and barren will not be accepted.

(the p.s. is written in a strange language that none who may intercept this can understand (its in Inupiaq))
p.s. We will also send you an Inupiat speaker and his family who can help you with code making. As I understand it you are soon to be at war, and there are no speakers of this tongue in that area.

WAR!

DECLARATION OF WAR
President Mrmitchell announced to the nation in a radio address that the POOP had failed to respond to Confederate communications for too long. Their time being up, the President has now authorised troops to enter the POOP-Oppressed Territory/POT.

TEXARKANA TAKEN WITH NO RESISTANCE
Confederate troops stormed the streets of Texarkana, only to find no enemy force there. In fact, the citizens greeted them, and offered them food and other goods. Confederacy soldiers put out the fires that had been started earlier, and marched through and on to Little Rock.

MISSISSIPPI FRONT
Confederate troops are marching through Mississippi to Jackson, leaving a trail of destruction in their path and showing mercy to nothing that doesn't immediately swear loyalty to the South and joins the Army. The Army has already captured a city called Meridan, which remained standing due to the sudden parade thrown by the town upon the Confederacy's capture of it. Resistance was light--about 20 casualties were suffered by the South. POOPhead losses are unknown.

OTHER NEWS
The Tennessee front remains slow-going, but the Confederate Navy has made a surprise attack on New Orleans. They face a much larger naval force, but the element of surprise helped them sink many enemy ships and left the POOP navy in chaotic disarray. Also, despite good news of the war, the Airborne Reconnaissance Division of the CAF (Confederate Air Force) reports seeing thousands of men carrying buckets of pickles and guns going south by land and by boat on the Mississippi.

mrmitchell · January 25, 2004, 16:59

To NAD (TOP SECRET):

Hopefully former Canada can be recivilized, but we are glad to hear you are doing what you can to help. We gaurantee you our best slaves in return for your assistance.

Territory Gained in Arkansas, Mississippi
Southwest Arkansas and lots of Eastern Mississippi now are under Confederate rule. Also, advances were finally made in Tennessee, and small towns in northeast Louisiana overthrew their POOPhead leaders and pledged allegiance to the CSA. We had no choice but to accept them--what, should we send them back to their masters, the same that whipped them daily and instilled the falsehoods of the Pickle in them?

Troops Expect to March on Little Rock, Jackson Soon
Confederate troops are now very close to the Mississippi and Arkansas capitals of Little Rock and Jackson. They expect a tougher fight than everywhere else, because the Airborne Reconaissance Division has photographed thousands of troops entering both cities.

POOP Navy Offers Tough Resistance
Although they have suffered some more losses, the POOP Navy still has not surrendered to the Confederate Navy. The seas around New Orleans are now filled with parts from ships that were burned, blasted, or just sunk into the watery depths.

"Serving the South since the Great Collapse"

TROOPS MARCH ON CAPITALS
Confederate troops today captured the capitals LITTLE ROCK and JACKSON of ARKANSAS and MISSISSIPPI. More territory was also gained in Tennessee, and Lousiana border cities started overthrowing their POOP oppressors to join the Great Confederacy.

President Mrmitchell offers peace to POOP
President Mrmitchell tells POOP that he will offer peace if Arkansas, Mississippi, and Tennessee are recognized as Confederate territory. In the deal, POOP will continue to have shipping rights down the Mississippi, and New Orleans will be placed under joint administration of both nations. No warships will be allowed on the Mississippi, however, by either side. POOP has yet to respond.

MEXICO ATTACKS
Mexico, furious with the CSA keeping escapee immigrants, attacked Laredo today. Much of the city was burned and more than 1,000 innocent civilians were killed by the outrage. This is an ACT OF WAR, and President Mrmitchell has ordered army forces to the Texas-Mexico border to defend. The Army is now stretched thin--fighting POOP and Mexico--but he believes that Mexicans pose little threat.

QUOTE OF THE DAY
"Oh ****, there goes the Missouri invasion" - President Mrmitchell, upon being told of the Mexican attack. However, he quickly covered that it was a mistake, and there never were plans for attacks north of Arkansas or Tennessee.
