ooops, what I meant to paste in didn’t take...so here’s what I meant to type:

Texas isn’t going to secede. But if it happened, it’s possible another petition would cause all those who signed the Texas secession petition to be deported:

That was then. This is now. The center of gravity is in the red states. The blue states are sucking the blood from our jugular, and will die if we cut them off.

Let me add my two cents.

Obama is creating a new America and Texas deciding not join Obamacare or Common Core, Texas has essentially refused to enter into Obama's turf.

Texas has, in spirit, already seceded by refusing to play ball with Obama's plan to turn our country into a Marxist state.

So there you go.

Sam Houston once said, "Texas can make it without the United States, but the United States can't make it without Texas"

I am with you!!!

This WildHighlander wants Freedom

Freedom from oppressive taxes, the proceeds of which are going to causes that are in diametric opposite to our values

Freedom from oppressive regulations, primarily the ones against our God- given rights to self- defense

Freedom from oppressive behavior control/diversity indoctrination which is in contravention to our biblically based prohibitions against perversions.

I. Want. My. God-given rights BACK!!!!!

FREEDOM!!!!!!

Texas isn’t going to secede.

What - you've got a crystal ball? Pick the next winning numbers in the Lotto, then get back to me on what Texas will, or will not do.

I was born in Texas and in history class we learned from early on that Texas reserved the right to secede when it joined the union, the only state that had reserved that right and if it isn’t codified in law, tough cookie, that’s what we believe. Now, perhaps the US Supreme Court has issued an opinion that Texas can’t do that, well, I would say, if it gets bad enough Texas has to save itself, we don’t give a diddly squat what the supreme court did or does do and we don’t care what Eric puissant Holder says, either, or what Muslim Hussein says, either.

The one who will be at the front of the border daring any freaking Hussein lover to cross to harm us, will be Greg Abbott who goes to the Supreme Court against Holder every chance he gets and he wins. He has already threatened to arrest any federal agent crossing our border to take guns from us or crossing our border and going into any of our polling precincts. He spits at Eric Holder and his justice department.

If you are not from here you don’t understand the resolve of the people and that includes Democrats who grew up here. They are Texans first with their own guns they have had all their life, had their independence and if it was bad enough we had to secede, they would stand with us - I believe that.

The constitution..the government belongs to the States and to the people.

To quote Obama “PERIOD”.

If any state has the balls to to act on that, it will be Texas.

Texas has its own energy grid, farmlands, livestock. We do not need other states or the fedgov. At all.

And that’s what scares the shit out of the government.

Sure. They can come and get us.

The federal government may be biting off more than it can chew.

But if they feel froggy...........they can jump.

Its not happening Deal with it.

************

I agree but it does make for interesting speculation and discussion. TX is on
the short end of the stick regarding money sent to the feds versus money returned.
I would seriously doubt the populace would vote for such an endeavor. JMO and
others will disagree.

If Texas leaves, many states will follow. Please Texas, look favorably on us from Georgia. We may have been one of the original 13 states, but it is time for us to get out.
