Independence of Texas. Thoughts.

Nothing inconsistent in what I said. I said the secessionists are fringe enough to kill people so no. The army going in there would not bother me one bit

funny you say that, after just having said you'd like to see the army run over part of your own country.

Think about what we are talking about here. Texas seceding. What happened last time states wanted to secede? Civil war. This no minor deal.
And it would in fact be a huge unprecedented destabilizing action for the whole United States. So war is not a far fetched consequence, simply based on historical precedent.

It is completely ignorant to think that a state owns everything inside its borders and can function independently the same as it has as part of this country. Its like your arm trying to live separately from your body. It would be a disaster for Texas, and a disaster for the USA.
It's a really stupid thought by not too bright right wing extremists, which are somewhat common in Texas. Guys like dumbbastard will never get it.
The USA would simply say no. Then what? How can Texas secede without the permission from Washington? They can't. Except by force. Which is still not possible.

Nice flag in your profile.

It's the site of the next F1 race. That's always what my flag represents. Nothing more.
