probably would, but as i said in my scenario, what happens if the feds take all their toys back and designates the country as one that US businesses can't do business with (ie no military use toys). If Texas doesn't take and keep their toys by force then what are they really left with to wage war? How long could it last against an established military power that surrounds it on almost three sides?
I guess i see this sort of talk as the type of thing you hear from teenagers who are sick of their parent's rules. They talk big about how great it will be to move out on their own, but once they get there they realize they don't know squat about how much it really costs to live. They also don't have nearly as many tools they are used to having since they were provided with them. It's like the first time you move out and realize you don't even have a colander since you've always used the one at your parent's house.
WHo said give it back? We paid for it!:finger:
The solution is not for states to secede. It is for the states to bitchslap the wayward child (the federal government) they created back into it's rightful place. States are beginning to grow balls and doing just that. Whether it be Colorado and Washington state on marijuana, Texas telling the TSA to pound sand, Kansas, Virginia, Florida, South Carolina telling the feds they will not set up health care exchanges or Montana telling the feds they have no say on the matter of firearms produced and sold there, it's the duty of each state to defend it's citizens from a federal government violating it's constitutionally enumerated powers.

Texas might be able to form allies with all the countries the POTUS is pissing off. Kind of a joke, kind of.
Amen!
As fun as this secession sounds, it's important to remember that Tejas is not some heterogeneous collection of hard-working, conservative capitalists. The state is chock full of liberals, welfare recipients, victims and other run of the mill government dependents. If it ever went to a vote, the same leftist organizations that "organized" the presidential election would turn out more votes from Dallas and Houston inner-city voters than anyone considered possible. No one can turn off that federal welfare spigot now.
Well, with inflation and all....
