Well said, sir-my ancestors came from Spain to Mexico over 400 years ago, and to what is now SW Texas in the 1780’s-even so, one of my cousins became disgusted with what is going on, and slipped off to a remote place in Mexico-she thinks I should do the same.
Easy as that would be, since I’m ranch-bred, used to living with the land and learned Texmex/Norteno Spanish at home as a child-my roots are too deep into Texas to leave. It has been good enough for my family for well over 200 years, it is good enough for me-I’ll stay. I also thought about picking up and quietly disappearing into Alaska, but that is running away, too. I’ve said many times that I’m an unrepentant rebel, and I’ve been ready for the revolution since I was 14-so bring it on...
My compadre and employer died a couple of weeks ago-his family and I were working on going galt together-but as soon as some things settle and I have some work again, I’m going to burrow even deeper off the beaten track than I am now, build a nest that can go off grid and live as self sufficient as possible-lots of people going/gone galt out here, so I’m in good company-there is already plenty of barter/trade and the like going on.
I believe Texas and Texans will survive, with or without other states-we are a hardy and rebellious bunch, and we would rather fight than give in to outsiders who don’t know how to just leave people alone who don’t want to be part of a hive or other socialist paradise...

Amen to that. Even in the suburbs and cities, that attitude prevails among most right thinking Texans. There's a spirit here that's all its own. One that will animate us to defend what's ours, should worse come to worst.
Thanks for standing your ground like a true Texan.
