I saw a comment that signing one of these petitions might be a legally enforceable citizenship resignation. I'll leave it to the legal experts here to comment.
No but there is resolve, commitment and sacrifice. A secession by nature is a peaceful proposal of separation when considered can lead to formal recognition of grievances resulting in compromise or opposed can swell into revolution. Neither pretty nor glorious it is indicative of the high price of freedom when one seeks to impose their will on others through force.

I can't comment on the legality of the other though I would not dispute it beyond the capacity of the central government to perceive it as seditious (vs protected free speech) though it's unlikely vindictive redress would be generally well tolerated.
