So if southern Texas towns want to join Mexico and Mexico rolls troops across our border to seize control of those towns, you’re okay with that?
I believe sovereign nations have the right to sovereign borders. Use of military force should be restricted to very specific circumstances. Ukraine and Georgia have been invaded and part of their sovereign territory is under foreign occupation. Russia should be subject to international isolation and economic consequences until they stop behaving like a belligerent empire.
I can show you sovereign border after sovereign border over the past hundred years that wasn't so sovereign after all. The old rules are the only ones that ultimately apply. You own the territory you take and keep by force. Period.
It's dumb analogy. We haven't had a revolution that resulted in the overthrow of our President and Congress. But, if that did happen, those towns should have the right.
Plus, our nation has had a lot more stable history than Ukraine. Nations in Eastern Europe, post communism, have been in constant flux. And, there is nothing wrong with that. We shouldn't arrogantly be setting the boundaries for these countries. That is there business.
We have had talk about Texas and state secession after the rigged election. How is that any different?
