As a Canadian this reminds me of Quebec. They're always going on about seceding, but they're land locked, and without the rest of the country they'd be financially and socially FUCKED.

Reminder that Texas's yearly operating budget is roughly 51 billion, and they receive 62 billion in federal aid, so without the rest of the country, Texas can't even run the state

but they're land locked

Yeah, except for the main East maritime entryway and port lol. Classic good ol' Quebec bashing.

Would that be beneficial to them though?

It is funny to see the calls like this and also the calls for civil war. The number of texans capable of shooting down an F35 with the puny small arms they bought is zero. Shoot, replace F35 with any plane built in the past 50 years.

That is why there will never be a civil war.

Before you start mumbling something about republicans flying F35s, keep in mind you actually have to have an ounce of intelligence to fly one. If they had any intelligence they would not be republican.

Does Texas become open season or would war have to be declared? Mainly I don't want to join/get drafted but I'm down to fuck around.

Don't they make F35 in Texas?

You could just be racist. There are plenty of very smart and very racist people.

Texan here. We don't want a civil war, it's just far right nutjobs. We would do fine as our own country, but things would be worse quality of life wise.

Love how they get a random black guy/gal involved, like they wouldn't be decorating the nearest tree if these fuckers got their way.
