I couldn’t agree more.

I agree.

It needs its own banking system with a gold-backed currency.

And absolute financial privacy with no extradition treaties with the US or Europe.

And only a single tax: a 15% retail sales tax.

Think of it as a “safe space.” Safety from all of the federal micro (and macro) aggressions - and they are legion.

Texas only needs to make the first move. The other States will jump to copy whatever success is shown by the Texas example. (I forget ... how many governors’ offices and state legislatures are controlled by Republicans?)

Obummer can make all the noise he wants but there is no way he would militarily move to quash such a rebellion. Hell, there would be questions about his response if China landed troops outside San Diego!

A Texas secession could quickly bring about a lot of good changes in the country.

Texas isnt going to do anything.

It isnt like the government there is made up of fearless cowboys. Look how many times the Feds just rolls over them. Far too many of the big shots just think that a western hat and a Texas drawl is good enough to cover for their weakness.

If they wanted to leave, then they would have by now.

Drudge has a story up about the DHS turning loose illegal Middle Eastern border crossers into the United States. Seems Obama is working at fever pitch to plant more destruction inside our borders.

And, in the Republican controlled Congress, the band plays on.

If Texas secedes, how many states will follow? I’m guessing 15-20.

Texas as a “libertarian paradise”?? Bwahahaha! Sort of self-contradictory to the stated intent. If by “libertarian” one means “virtually no centralized government control” then how does one propose to control the ethnic or religious demographic, much less ideologies of the populace?
Does Lord Monckton know the state is already overrun with Muslims and illegal Latinos?

Should Texas reform it’s Republic, I will move to Texas and swear allegiance my Ancestors fought in first war for Texan Independence. And I will fight for it’s third should it come to that.

God bless Texas!

For God, Guns, and Liberty.

Deo Vindice

As a native Texan, sometimes I think this wouldn’t be a bad idea, because our government is so totally corrupted- but then there’s Donald, a brilliant AMERICAN businessman/CEO who loves America and GETS THINGS DONE.
It’s quite possible he’s our last hope to save this country.

He might not be able to get ‘the wall’ built, try as he might, but he will put the guards (armed) back on the border to help stop the tsunami of dangerous Mexican/S American/muslim criminal invaders. He WILL enforce our immigration laws.

He WILL stem the colonization of America by muslim ‘refugees’ that Obama continues to import by the thousands and distribute all across America AGAINST OUR WILL- before we become another Germany. COUNT ON IT.

I would be surprised if any patriotic Texan took British advice on secession.

I don’t know. Some of the riff-raff in neighboring states say they want to come along with us.

Secession! Not now!

Jan 20th is coming soon!

Never Give Up!
