Topic: Texas debates succession

Down south the common talk is will the Governor and other elected officials succeed from the United States. This talk is very prevalent. Recently pushed hard on the front screen, there is also notice of others talking ugly also



30 States have passed, or are currently passing, declarations of sovereignty. This basically is an affirmation of their rights under the Constitution to Succeed from the Union.


Yes 30 States.


Texas of course has unique history, as a separate nation which joined the Union, they have a treaty allowing withdrawal, and would set the stage for the splintering of the United States.



Some States are carrying this even further, with passing of laws designed to get Federal Officials to tell the State to desist. The States then will sue the Federal Government for interfering in the States rights.



Additionally there is talk of a Constitutional Convention. Such a convention would dramatically re-write the Constitution and re-affirm several parts. And this effort actually is currently a strong one which would result in new conservative laws at the constitutional level due to the current make up and disposition of the nation.

This is considered to be an alarming level however, and is still only whispered as Texas seceding was whispered a few months ago.

Everything bad in the economy is now Obama's fault. Every job lost, all the debt, all the lost retirement funds. All Obama. Are you happy now? We all get to blame Obama!
Kemp currently not being responded to until he makes CONCISE posts.
Avogardo and Noir ignored by me for life so people know why I do not respond to them. (Informational)

Re: Texas debates succession

If Texas left, would we have to redesign the flag for 49 stars, or would there just be a cover-up patch over one star that we should put on our old flags?

Haha, Southern scum are reasserting their autonomy from the federal government again. It's time to give them another beating, Sherman style!

Drop Texas and forcefully pick up Canada. The size of the united states would increase
dramatically, and so too would your average IQ.

Re: Texas debates succession

If we wanted to raise the average IQ, the addition of 33 million people wouldn't help much. What would help is if we let the south leave the union. Ofc, I am in favor of keeping the union together even if we have to terrorize and ruin them again. For the past 150 years, they have only behaved when the threat of federal troops was present. If anything, we need a strong federal government to keep those idiots in line.

One of my favorite moments in American history was when the hero of 1812, Andrew Jackson, told a few southern states at the time that he would march on them if they ever seceded from the union when he was president. lol.

Re: Texas debates succession

(I think calls for assassination violate the TOS)

You notice a cornerstone of his "sovereignity" is they will not tolerate the federal government putting conditions on federal money. Rick Perry is to get my tax $$$ whatever they do for themselves down there! That's Liberty!!!
