    The families and friends would not support the state. The feds and the NGs will not support such state orders. They would arrest the state officials first.

    90% of Americans would think any secession talk to utter and complete insanity.

    12 active years in the airborne infantry and as a Legal NCO. Many years associated with veterans' associations and their families.

    This 'oath keeper' talk reflects may 1/10th of one percent of families, veterans, and their friends.

    There will no serious attempt at secession anywhere. Any state official who attempts it is in violation of federal law and will immediately be taken into custoy.

    It may be allowed by treaty and everything, but I don't see it as happening

    My idea? What we should have done in 1860: "Wayward Sisters, Go in Peace"

    And THEN we find new allies. Like Russia, and we go to WAR. Let's see the West Texas Do-Whas go up against the 101st Airborne AND the Spetsnaz one time. Enslave the whole damned population by Right of Conquest .

    I wouldn't at all mind having one or two Dallas Debbies as slaves. Mind, they aren't really good for much beside making movies but we'll be eating out anyhow. :cheerleader::cheerleader:

    Because you aren’t reading. I gave you the Supreme Court ruling. States can’t secede. Dividing a state is a portion of that state seceding from the rest. Can’t do that, as I showed you.

    No it didn’t. And the Supreme Court has ruled on this.

    Nope, Texas cannot divide into other states, as SCOTUS has so ruled.

    I don't see it happening, but I don't consider it impossible. The people I've known from Texas aren't the types who would want to split up their state.

    According to you, but you aren't the person making the decision.

    In your mind, dividing a state is secession and it isn't.

    No, according to the Supreme Court, which I showed you.

    Is all of that portion of the state, still Texas? No. So, it seceded from the state. Can’t do that, as I’ve shown you

    Yeah. So. Righties have been ranting about State's rights for decades. And I am sure that given a chance, most blue states would be glad to stop carrying the red states, which are filled with people who hate them.

    The South has never really accepted the conclusion of the civil war. Hell, they still fly Confederate flags and honor men who waged war on the US.

    Personally, I see the trump movement as a threat to the world and not just liberty and freedom here. I don't want one more subhuman scum, red state politician like trump, or snakes like jeff sessions, ever running MY country again. They are truly despicable people and fantastically dangerous to liberty and freedom, not to mention humanity.

    The office of president HAS to go. trump has proven it has become far too dangerous to be allowed to exist.

    All we've got to do in Texas is tie electoral college votes to whoever wins the majority of counties in Texas. Problem solved.

    This map shows illegal immigration for the cancer it is:

    Rahl, your opinion is not factual. In fact, SCOTUS could so rule to make secession legal.

    We all know that it is very unlikely that SCOTUS would even consider it.

    Or just eliminate the EC and use the actual popular vote. In which case Republicans would never win again. ;)

    God forbid the vote be representative of the actual vote.

    ArchStanton, Texas will go Biden next year, and your problem will be solved.

    No they can’t. It’s already been ruled on. Texas v white. Only an amendment can make secession legal.

    Texas v. White could be overturned.

    But it won't be.

    God forbid we did something about illegal immigration and anchor babies.

    Hey, if you want to eliminate the EC, go get yourself a constitutional amendment. Otherwise Texas can do whatever the hell we want to do if the libs keep blocking the WALL.
