Throughout the 37 States with Sovereignty Resolutions, August 29th will be a day set down in history when We The People gave our government the option to either restore our Individual and State Sovereignty, nullify ALL Federal legislation that is unconstitutional, and restore our God-given, unalienable rights, or we will be forced to exercise the right our Founders set down in the Declaration of Independence and abolish our government (secede) and start a new government that will adhere to our contract with government that we call a Constitution.
This is not and should not be a violent confrontation. Violence is not condoned by anyone involved. However, we are exercising our rights and our duty to compel the restoration of our sovereignty and rights (alter our government) or it will leave us with no choice but secession.
Here in Texas, we'll be meeting with the Governor with the petition you find here. We'll also have the support of Rep. Leo Berman and all other representatives who support Leo's Sovereignty Bill and House Bill 1863 that nullifies all Federal legislation that does not have explicit authorization within the U.S. Constitution. We'll also be demanding the dismantling of all State agencies that have been created to support unconstitutionally authorized Federal agencies. We will demand that all support of illegal aliens be stopped in Texas and that the Governor deploy our National Guard and other volunteer citizens along our southern border to stem the tide of illegal immigration.
At the same time we deliver this to Governor Perry, we will also have copies of this petition and demand delivered to every county courthouse and County Sheriff throughout the State of Texas, effectively putting our local public servants on notice that they will be held accountable to the letter of their Oath of Office.

FOLKS - LET’S GET BEHIND THIS PETITION AND SHOW UP AT THE CAPITOL IN AUSTIN ON SATURDAY AUGUST 29 AT HIGH NOON TO “ENTICE” GOV. PERRY TO CALL A SPECIAL SESSION FOR NEW BINDING LEGISLATION ON TEXAS STATE SOVEREIGNTY.
Secede
Gonna be interesting to see if Governor Ricky is a stand alone or just another dancer in the chorus line.
Secessionists vs. .... uniates? unionists? Again?! It’s only been about 150 years since the last time and the neighbors still complain about the noise!
Texas was already an independent country before joining the Union.
I don’t want to see states secede.
But I also don’t want the federal government to give them reasons to.
Do you actually think Gov. Good Hair truly supports state sovereignty or succession?
All this tough talk from Perry is nothing more than a ploy to garner support for reelection.
Perry is no friend of Texas y'all.
It would seem that Gov. Perry is too busy building Toll Roads.
Keep your powder dry and your options open.
$100 to anyone delivering the petition if they can get a picture proving that Gov. Ricky’s hair can, in fact, still move.
I like the idea of facing down the tyrannical central government, and forcing them to adhere to the clear mandates of our Constitution, but I do not support secession.
We can “get ‘er dun” without leaving the union. I think that just the threat of secession would cause Washington to squirt their trousers, but I don’t think we need to actually go through with it.
The way I see it, is this country belongs to The People. It’s our Union. Not Washington’s.
If there’s going to be a separation, I vote to separate DC from the rest of us.
I think that if gov good hair sees that it is in his political best interest to go that way, he will. He is polician first.
Me, too. I grew up near Dallas. Live in CA now, but I’ll be back in a heartbeat if we could secede.
Perry started his political career as a democrat.
He’z no conservative guys.
It's good that he may have found his spine, but I don't think KBH is a friend of Texas either.
You guys secede and we may just move down there.
Don't take much spine to be a weasel.
Oh, and your absolutely right about Kay, she’za Washington elitist.
I want to live in Texas! Again!
Sandy Cheeks Texas song
Wish I was back in Texas,
The ocean’s no place for a squirrel,
Wish I was in Texas,
Prettiest place in the world, oh no.
I guess deep in my heart I’ll always be a Texas girl
I wanna go hommmme hooommmmmme hommme oh oh
Yoldle ay e oh, yodle ay e oh, yodle ay e oh, a lay-ee, a lay-ee.
I wanna wake up in Texas
I miss those wide open skies.
I miss my 20 acres, bar-b-ques,
And peacan pies, oh why?
When I’m so far from you, Texas, all I can do-o is cry.
I wanna go ho-oome,
Ho-oome, (a guy)I wanna go ho-ome!
FYI :)
I’m not sure we can do it without secession. I’m a Texan and I support seccesion 100% The corrupt fed government will keep calling our bluff if we don’t. Texas can reunite someday if it becomes feasible. The feds won’t attack Texas with force, either. The political fallout from that would cause other states to secede and they know it. The selfish and corrupt government we have now will never change without drastic measures, I fear. Because there are no consequences for wrongdoing.
