My roommate in college said this all of the time. I gave him crap for it.

Unlike Trump, I now concede. Texas is the Great State of Texas.

I'm a New Yorker, and from the very beginning I recognized Texans as the most alike New Yorkers in spirit. Neither of us take any shit, neither of us will accept that any place is better, both of us will kick your ass if you try and fuck with us.

Sadly, what is happening to Texas right now, thanks to Refugees from California, happened to New York during my whole childhood. I don't know who most of the people in New York are these days, but they sure as shit aren't New Yorkers. Our President is the QUINTESSENTIAL New Yorker, and I remember when most people around me were just like him...

And now I live in Pennsylvania, where maybe I can Hold the Line.

Can I move there from OR? I feel like I should get permission from someone that lives there.

I'll bring some guns. And beer.

Guns and beer are a good start. A pickup truck to carry them in is a must.

The Republic of Texas

It sounds like a Texas rep is looking to propose a bill to secede from the US. Allowing Texans to vote to leave the "Union" and become an independent nation, yet again.

Ha. I think there is a rule that someone must file a bill to succeed during every session. They probably play Beer Pong to see who gets to do it this time.

This. I wish most Americans loved America as much as Texans love Texas.

6
TheTexan 6 points ago +6 / -0

That is a fact. We do. I love my state so much and always have, it's just a source of pride for most of us, all but the lefties.

When I used to travel to different countries for business there would be people from several different countries and everyone would ask you where you were from. Most said the US. I said I'm from Texas".

It used to be even better. The top athletes used to stay in state, now they go all over and we seed the rest of the country. There used to be more pride and loyalty than now.

Not possible. Texans love Texas like no other.

I'm an Ohioan and today has given me a heavy case of state envy. I love my state, but besides a heavy suspicion that Republicans are the riggers here (our state house speaker was indicted on bribery charges or some shit), I'm starting to see that Columbus is full of rinos. Red state, blue city.

The Even Greater State of Texas.

Texas is part of the US because we choose to be, not because we were annexed.

Mittens is a carpetbagger. He moved to Utah just so he could run for senate.

like in cyberpunk 2077, the republic of texas becomes its own 'free state', only a part of the US in name.

3
killerbunny88 3 points ago +4 / -1

That's basically how we think of ourselves, now lol

We have our own electric grid separate from the rest of the country, we have our own pledge of allegiance that we said in school right after the American pledge, and I feel like since we were our own country for 9 years, that spirit has always stayed with us.
