Texas Secede! For an independent Texas Republic
The United States played a huge role in the dissolution of the Soviet Union. Which free superpower will fill that role in helping to liberate the USSA?
Are you a Texan?
The market will do it. Economic law destroyed the USSR. The USA is not more powerful than the market.
The Soviets killed tens of millions of their own citizens. Perhaps those victims thought they could hunker down and outlast the commies too. I'd rather die on my feet than with a boot on my neck.
It took about 70 years and 70 million murders for economic law to destroy the Soviet Union (which isn’t as dead as we’d like to believe). That’s with a Cold War and outside pressure being applied by a free superpower and strong allies.
How long is it going to take economic law to save us with no USA to expedite the process? How many of us get to die while we sit around waiting for it to run its course?
If you don’t like liberals, ACORN, or even worse types, don’t move to Austin, Houston, Dallas or the Hill Country. Then, there are areas in South Texas that are controlled by liberal Hispanic groups. The conservative tradition of Texas is being diluted at a rapid rate. We need more strong conservatives who want to raise lots of conservative kiddos.
Good question. Have you read The Fourth Turning? It’s about economic cycles and generational trends. I think it’s partially based on the work of Kondratieff, one of Stalin’s advisers who wrote extensively on the subject. Fascinating stuff.
yes
I heard Glenn Beck speak about it two weeks ago, but I haven’t picked it up yet. It’s on my list.
Bull. They've had their feet on your neck for years and you haven't done crap. You're not going to do crap about it now, either.
If you were serious about what you say, you'd be in the cell next to Ted Kaczynski by now.... or smushed into the dirt in Waco.
Meaning no disrespect, but when it comes to being a freedom fighter you're all hat and no cattle, as we say here in Tarrant County.
Let me freepmail you something from work tomorrow. I got an email last week about electrical contracts just south of Austin.
I'm not gonna be a martyr simply because I went postal 2 months before everyone else, and went to prison. Timing is everything.
“Meaning no disrespect, but when it comes to being a freedom fighter you’re all hat and no cattle, as we say here in Tarrant County.”
You don’t know squat, as we say in Harris County.
“That’s a real wet blanket of an atitude {sic}. Thank God you weren’t around in 1775. Oh, wait, you were. We called them Tories.”
No, it is simply an attitude that is grounded in realism as Texas will not secede and Texas cannot seeded from the Union.
However, your fantasy were to come true, Texas would be a very diverse nation with African Americans and Hispanics outnumbering whites and would soon become a nation where Hispanics were the majority.
“However, your fantasy were to come true, Texas would be a very diverse nation with African Americans and Hispanics outnumbering whites and would soon become a nation where Hispanics were the majority.”
So? What have you got against Hispanics? What kind of racist, not to mention defeatist, are you?
I’m a Texan and have nothing at all against Hispanics or any other group as I live in a diverse city and appreciate the various cultures.
But, the fact of the matter is that there is no will among the majority of Texans to succeed from the Union and even if there were there is not a procedure to leave the Union.
If Texas leaves the union and maintains an American platform I would be proud to move there, bringing my resources. I am against illegal immigration and believe we must enforce the laws but I have a respect for the Hispanic population, not the gangbangers and criminal elements but the good hearted Hispanics that work hard and want the same better life that I do.
Texas always has been a mix of Spanish and “American” and that has always been its culture. As an American I feel a bit like a foreigner when I am there because of that diverse history.
