Ditto, sounds like a hoax, specifically one by the left to try to get folks on the right to ‘ra ra’ and say stupid things in order to report.
This is the 2nd thread I have read where the “Republic of Texas” idea has been formulated from Chuck Norris statements.
I once lived in Texas for Five Years... I Like Texas. I respect its History.. I respect its culture and how many Texans consider themselves “Texans” rather than Americans.
But lets be very realistic here. Texas was once a Independent Nation.. but Sam Houston made no bones about it.. He wanted the nation to be merged with the United States.
Later.. Texas seperated from the Union and threw its lot in with the Confederacy. Then it was re-admitted into the United States at the wars end.
But the US would never allow Texas to simply Seperate from the country. Two or three military installations lie in the State. Ft. Hood and Lackland AFB. FT. Hood is a very important Army training and staging area.. Lackland AFB is THE base for training USAF recruits, Randolph AFB is a important flying/training base and overseas the command that controls Lackland.
Besides.. Do all the Texas Republic supporters consider just what would need to be done to become its own country... and survive?
