mthor Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 I'm just going to stay in my sovereign nation (to be named once the fence is up), and paint a target on the roof. No slow lingering here - we're going out with a bang.
1pooh4u Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 sounds horrible.. doesnt look much better. Agreed, I think I'd rather die than live there, it's nothing but whatever that is :catlol
Professah Tex Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 for real though.. I wanna look into this more. Is it's soul purpose just to be anchored out there looking pathetic so the owners can claim soveriegnty? that article said that technically it's part of britain I think. If that's all it is it seems like a waste of effort.. There must be like 10 methlabs or some kind of super drug in there to make it a worthwile endeavor.
1pooh4u Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 for real though.. I wanna look into this more. I take it's so purpose is just to be anchored out there looking pathetic so the owners can claim soveriegnty? that article said that technically it's part of britain I think. If that's all it is it seems like a waste of effort.. There must be like 10 methlabs or some kind of super drug in there to make it a worthwile endeavor. Great Britain built it illegally during WWII, they built a few of these things, not entirely sure why this is still standing when the others were demolished. Doesn't really make sense to run there, you need supplies from the mainland and if it's blown to shit you're fucked anyway. I'd rather live in Sealab :catlol
Professah Tex Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 I read more on the article you posted. So the guy responsible for Sealands independance is a guy that used to use a closer to shore bunker like the one in question to host a radio station that was exempt from the U.K.s strict broadcasting laws since the BBC has sort of a complete monoploly over shit..it caught on with the public and became known as 'pirate radio' so the uk decided to take him to court and shut him down. So he then got with his lawers and moved to the current tower that's too far out for the U.K. to claim as territoy, and did all the legal work to ensure he couldn't be fucked with again. Pretty cool story..
Still Me Posted August 9, 2017 Author Posted August 9, 2017 https://www.sealandgov.org/ Damn you for making me learn something! :catlol from what I understand is that after WWII the people left on that were abandoned there...so the elected someone to rule them...it started with 4 people and has grown to 50+...

1938 Packard Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 i don't wanna live on a continent any more....and I mean, if war breaks out... who the fuck coming for sealand?...that's just an opportunity to make money.....ain't nobody gonna bomb sealand... :D If it weren't for Hetalia, I wouldn't have even been aware of Sealand. Anyway, I doubt the place has any good cigarettes available.
mthor Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 Dude sounds like a crackpot. I mean, he and his son were shooting at people from the platform. It's like the fucking Ozarks in the middle of the North Sea. "In Sealandia, if you get a divorce, is she still your sister?"

You think they got room for one more. For 99 sealand pounds you can be a baron
Still Me Posted August 9, 2017 Author Posted August 9, 2017 You think they got room for one more. For 99 sealand pounds you can be a baron omg I dare you...become baron von pooh

The british armed forces blew up all the bunkers around them, and dispatched ships with armed crew in a show of force before he fired warning shots though according to the article there... I might do the same thing.

Professah Tex Posted August 10, 2017 Posted August 10, 2017 And then what? Take a turret gun shell on the cheek? Nah brits don't have the balls. Their military doesn't anyway. According to that rather biased article pooh posted from sealands site they had been antagonizing him for weeks, and he scared them off with a few shots.
Still Me Posted August 10, 2017 Author Posted August 10, 2017 Nah brits don't have the balls. what are we talking about? Super Larry the first king of sealand?

No they abandoned it some guy in the 60s had a pirate radio station in one of the neighboring fortress But they introduced new air way laws forcing him to move it to Rough Tower Because it was in international waters So they couldn't touch him And created his own nation after moving there Which after a standoff with British military went to court And the justice ruled it it's own country there for had its legal rights to the sea fort

mochi Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 I'd like to live to the gay and lesbian kingdom of the Coral sea Islands except it doesn't actually exist, it's a sand bar with some algae on it that was only declared a seperate nation because a rich gay guy was pissed off at the Australian government for their homophobia and decided to buy an island then make it secede from Australia as a form of protest
enad Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 I'd like to live to the gay and lesbian kingdom of the Coral sea Islands except it doesn't actually exist, it's a sand bar with some algae Gay island nations aren't born. They may choose to identify as gay island nations, but they'll always just be sand barges with some algae.
JeNewBee Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 Gay island nations aren't born. They may choose to identify as gay island nations, but they'll always just be sand barges with some algae. So you they only adopted? I think you are forgetting about in vitro islandnations
