I still see it as a form of sedition -

Go ahead and do it if you like, but don't claim patriotism. Being patriotic is to support your country - regardless of whoever is in charge for a short period of time - not telling people how bad this country sucks.
That's not being a patriot -not even close.
Well said.

I thought dissent was the highest form of patriotism?
But this whole secession petition move is just people blowing off some steam. And much better than rioting and demonstrations like Europe is doing right now.

To anyone taking this seriously, have you never found something so frustrating you threw up your hands and said "I quit!!!!" and then gotten back to work after a 5 minute sanity break?
That's all this is... Frustration at the liberal agenda gaining traction, and saying "That's it, I quit". And then getting back to work returning this country to sound fiscal conservative policy.
Please notice I said 'fiscal conservative' not social.
