Alabama secession petition starter mad about losing topless car wash

The man who started the petition for Alabama to opt out of the U.S. is angry at the government, but for more revealing reasons than you might think. Derrick Belcher's petition for Alabama to secede has more than 25,000 signatures, but will the government's now-required response address the injustice perpetrated on him -- way back in 2001? Belcher, 45, of Chunchula says his car wash in Mobile that featured topless women was a hit for 10 years before city officials charged him with obscenity. Belcher explained, "The government ripped my business away, and now they're choking America to death with rules and regulations." And that's the bare-breasted truth.
