I always wondered how quick that would go down.
72 hours seems quick, but I guess they wouldn't really encounter actual resistance.
We did Baghdad in a month; we could do Austin in three days.
Barring the State politicians, I thought Austin was majority Democrat?
makes it real easy to justify liberating it then, doesn't it? most of the people living there want to remain part of the US.
Probably, but nothing makes a statement like taking a regime's capital.
Houston is the 4th largest city in the country, and generates a shitload of oil revenue. That's way more important than Austin.
That might crash the beard oil and red suspenders industries..
Both of which are much better for the world than the current main industries of Texas: fossil fuels and fascism.
Yeah “muh guns” are pretty useless against predator drones and air support
