Agreed. The other day I thought this Texas judge was a loon, but now that the UN denies this, they are lending some credence to his suspicions.
To: Derp Mountain
They wouldn’t last longer than an ant fart, going up against a full company of Texas Rangers.

He later added: "No one, not even the United Nations, would ever mess with Texas."
Not for more than a few minutes anyway.

The UN should pick another spot to attack. The vast majority in W TX have multiple guns, loaded and ready to protect themselves and their property from the onslaught of illegal criminals infesting that part of the state.
To: scottjewell
Personally I’m relieved. If the UN ever managed to secure west Texas they would have half of America’s lizards under their control.

"It's absolutely ridiculous," said U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon's spokesman, Martin Nesirky, when asked if the United Nations had any plans to invade Texas. He later added: "No one, not even the United Nations, would ever mess with Texas."
Methinks you didn't closely read the article.

It is a thought. The UN has organized forces to intervene in other revolutions. Look at the Middle East.
