The United Nations scoffed on Friday at claims by a judge in Lubbock County, Texas, that U.N. troops could invade the southern U.S. state to settle a possible civil war, which the judge warned could be sparked if Obama is re-elected in November.

I said it lends some credence to his suspicions. I never said he cannot be wrong; he is very probably wrong. But Howe and Strauss, Ortega y Gasset : These were also accused of being paranoid and fanning the flames of delusion. History bore them out. They were ahead of their time and saw things clearly which seemed ridiculous to most who didn’t see the roots. Enough said.

Well, Chuck Norris does live in Dallas (Northwood Hills neighborhood) so I guess we only need one Texan to take care of business.

“the vast majority in W Tx have multiple guns...”

Same in East, South and North Tx. Add the fact that we have neighboring states that are like minded.

This judge may have any type of rioting, etc. in mind and wants to be prepared.

Myself, I can’t imagine any state tolerating the presence of the Blue Helmets. Not saying it is impossible but I don’t think even Barry would be stupid enough to invoke such a thing.

Any good such truth could provide is immediately nullified by its inclusion in a conspiracy theory.

The UN is a bunch of freeloading and lazy crooks, but they ain’t stupid enough to jump on us. They are convinced that each Texan is toting and has at least 15 more in his truck and at home and are born deadeye shooters.

The U.N. couldn’t take Massachusetts.

Right...without 27 meetings, pre-printed instructions in 92 different languages, and 43 "votes", the U.N. couldn't take a good "dump". Fools.

This could be a money making endeavor for some thinking rancher. Folks come from all over to hunt Texas white tails and exotics on game ranches. Think what they’d pay to have a blue helmet hanging over their fireplace. “Yep, got that one down around San Antone, only went about 135 pounds and smelled like a Frenchmen, but took two 400 grain solids from my double rifle to stop him. Didn’t really hit him, the muzzle blast made him faint and I poked him with a stick til he ran away leaving this nice rifle and his helmet”.

Either way it’s correct

As some wit observed, the UN has already deployed a division of elite Pakistani 7-11 clerks, with the intent to overthrow the US. However, the attack has been suspended because their managers have extended their hours and the Slurpee machine keeps acting up.

It is assumed that a conflict as described could be confined to Texas?

I am just concerned about air superiority. We got any shoulder lauched stuff for the blue hats?

The frenchies on the ground don’t like doing dirty work so most of us Texicans can handle them. Light armored we can probably handle, infantry we can eliminate. It is just the airborne stuff I worry about, both drones and manned.
