This isn't a p!ssing contest, friend. We like-minded neighbors are going to have to stand together like we never imagined, if the SHTF.
If it does, the illegals won't be able to get across the southern border fast enough.
It all depends upon what you and I do, or do not do.
If we continue to sit on our rear ends whining about what Obomba is doing to our once great nation, the tyranny will continue to strengthen and envelop us. They do not fear words - only force.
It remains to be seen whether the people can be pushed far enough to actually exert their will against a government gone mad.
If we allow the despicable left to destroy what's left of our laws, traditions, and the Constitution, then we'll see several states move to disconnect themselves from the insanity. Political disunion would put a stop to it overnight.
In that case, you can expect a rapid fall of the remaining union states, as they will have lost the economic engine which they've harnessed to enable their evil. They'd be begging for reunification in no time. And on OUR terms.
I’m a Texan and as much as I know the will of many Texans I believe Texas will fall like the rest. We’ll be overrun by Mexicans and libs and the Federal gov. will bring down the hammer. Nearly all of the politicians will gladly sell their souls for a promise of wealth and a mess of porridge. Most of the cities are filled with libs and undertow. It will be a battle that unless all the serious constitutional republic types are organized and willing to go far beyond anything we’ve seen in our lifetimes and soon; not to mention being sold out by agent provocateurs certainly be sold out by their own leaders “many Tea Party types”; they will be targeted as racists, haters, unfit for civil life and citizenship as Christian businesses and people have just been in San Antonio and declared such by it’s politicians.
2012 Texas Presidential Results
M. Romney GOP 57.2%
B. Obama (i) Dem 41.4%
2012 Louisiana Presidential Results
M. Romney GOP 57.8%
B. Obama (i) Dem 40.6%
Not a great difference between Texas and Louisiana.

It's a fantasy that these things are going to make everything hunky-dory overnight with a clean break.
Plus, look at history. "Anti-government" sentiment (if that's what we're talking about) is mostly directed at faraway governments controlled by faraway people.
Once one overthrows or chases away that government it's only a matter of time before government gets as big (relative the the size of the population) and as intrusive as it was before.
As soon as the foreign wolf has been locked out, people start voting themselves benefits in earnest, thinking that it's no longer a matter of "us" against "them."
On the positive side: if it happens, no president from Texas is going to be sending anybody to wars on the other side of the earth again.
Texas isn't going to be powerful enough on its own to throw its weight around in the world, and Texans presumably would be ineligible for US President.
I guess that could be good, but the US also wouldn't count for so much in the world after such a break-up.
we need to keep the grid independent no matter what
Tell me about the force.
What most people aren't seeing, is that the red states have the power to put a stop to the tyranny by simply seceding from the union. In this day and age, it's not even a matter of fighting a bloody war to achieve it. There is NO political will for that. Simply passing Articles of Secession in several state legislatures would do it.
Of course there'd be a lot of re-organizing and paper shuffling to endure, but once it was done, we'd have what amounts to a peaceful revolution that would result in an immediate rise in fortune for the secessionist states, and a horrible reduction in quality of life for those in the old union states.
I don't think it would take too long for the old union states to come begging for reunification. They will not survive above the level of a third world Socialist country without us.
And of course, we'd dictate the terms of the re-established 50 state union, which would naturally include a complete and unequivocal return to the Constitution and our nation's Founding Principles, with the concurrent revocation and abolition of every leftist, Progressive, law, statute, court judgment, and federal agency ever erected.
The political will to lob a few bombs on Syria doesn't exist, yet you think Americans have the stomach to watch their military to the same thing to their own countrymen?
Dream on.
Sorry to hear that you've allowed yourself to be mind controlled by the left and the RINO traitor elites. You've let them take the one thing from you, that you yourself have complete control over. Your fighting spirit.
There is a good chance that Bryan and his boss will be opening their own PWB facility, and they’re talking Texas.
Tell me about the force.
Sounds like a leading question. Why don't you just come right out and say what's on your mind?
I couldn’t agree more. We need to purge the cancer that is eating the country, and keep it out of Texas for good.
Oh its all over Texas, they control the major cities.
Too late. Those west coast libs have arrived in droves.
If a free Texas were to stop all government entitlements, the illegals and freeloaders would all go elsewhere.
I believe it is our honor bound duty to give our whole effort to Mark Levin's proposal for a Convention of the States (Article V), to propose amendments to curtail the power of the federal government. We must try that as an effort to bring the country back within its original constitutional boundaries. If we don't, we are condemning the country to either tyranny or war.
If that case, then secession of conservative states may be the only option.
Either way, our time is very short.
After enduring your lengthy platitudes, I was hoping you would some day get to your point.
There is no down side to freedom.
