I agree with you 1000%.

I immigrated to Texas three years ago.

I would not go back to the state where I was born and raised for anything.

I feel more free here, more independent, more “git er done “ :D

You understand the independence we feel and we are glad to have you. Our legislature meets every TWO years. We figure that’s enough time to “fix” anything that needs attention. We are not bothered by them every year, they leave us alone. That’s a good thing.

I’ve met quite a few conservatives who have moved here in the last several years from northeastern liberal states and California, and they love it. They say it feels like home, as in their true conservative mindset type of home, whereas their home state felt like they were in an alien country.(well, aside from the weather.)

A few years ago it would have broken my heart to think Texas might secede, even though I saw it might be necessary to escape from total communistic tyranny. Today, it wouldn’t make me sad as it feels like the country I knew is gone. Young people barely know and love the history of our country, they’ve been taught to be ashamed of it, and have the country thinks its okay to enslave the other half.

My hope would be if Texas ever secedes, and one day other states follow, is that sometime in the future, we might be able to re-form the United States (while correcting some of the things that have gone wrong the last 100 years.)

If not secession, then the Convention of States is another possibility for returning most of the powers to the states that rightly belong there.
