“...Imagine the reaction of our government if Texas actually moved to secede from the USA? I don’’t doubt our government would send everything it has to put a stop to it....”
Get ready. There is a strong undercurrent of independence brewing in TX right now. Mr. Skittles already stated that he supports a sovereign people to declare their independence in his speech on the Ukraine the other day. So it sounds like he’d be way cool with TX leaving. Oh wait! All that oil and gas....No!!!
But Texas is part of the USA. Ukraine is an independent country with its own sovereignty. That’s not a valid comparison.
