Honestly, I am yearning for the times of the wild wild West! History will probably repeat itself again!

Rose, are you hearing any serious talk of Texas secession? It's an unpleasant thought, but it may be time to start thinking about it.

I would hope if Texas did secede, they would allow other freedom loving states to join in with them to form a new country.

Imagine a place where Leftists have no control over public policy.

If history is repeating itself, I would look at two points in history:

1. The period after the Civil War in the South. Look at the political environment and you will find similarities. It was not the civil war that lead to “Jim Crow” laws it was the political environment post civil war.

2. Wiemar Republic. I plan to study that period a lot more. Get ready for the massive inflation and worthless dollar. Just as a precaution I'd learn to grow my own food. It s a good idea anyway as prices have already gone up and home grown is better tasting.
