That’s already been tried, with much bloodshed and a long, hard struggle. It failed, and many of the same states that today resist Hussein’s folly are now those in red on the map; but are even now strong-armed by “Union” forces up north and made to live under tyrants. - Secession might be nice for a change if we could do it peaceable. - I think Texas may be able to do that, both legally and physically. Ugh, though. The illegals in Texas are a real problem; and it’s also real, real hot there in the summer.
If Texas left the Union they could create their own immigration laws....AND enforce them.
