Maybe We Shouldn’t Be Laughing At Texas
The Texas secessionist talk is growing. To liberals, myself included, it’s the joke that keeps on giving, but, to a certain segment of Texans, secession is serious business. Once again, the talk is escalating, and it’s not funny – especially if you’re a liberal, minority, or non-christian living in Texas.
From Free Republic Threads on Texas Secession:
”If we did secede, we would have to expel all the liberals to succeed.”
A more harsh treatment might be more in order.We have a lot of Democrat free-loaders in the cities now. I would love to see a line of buses to transport out the people who don’t believe in states’ rights.
Just remember this liberal media..You are any of your ilk will not be allowed in our country..no Terrorist, no Commies, no Muslims..We won’t give these so called special interest groups a chance. we need to let every one know what will be ahead of them if they decide to stay on the outside….If you want to be a citizen of this state you all of you will have to pass a test..and a back ground check..
Hopefully Texas would become aggressively anti-Leftist and not beat around the ‘Bush’ so to speak and just flat out – outlaw any sort of LeftWingNut-ism whatsoever. Its time to just put a stop to the advance of Marxism. Anyone who didn’t like it – gets dumped on the border or put on a raft and just be glad they weren’t shot for being an enemy agent.
I believe that if we do that no one should just be able to “move” to Texas. Too dangerous. You guys should have no problems getting citizenship but visas should be issued to people who would have the best interests of a conservative Texas and anyone coming in should be able to show ability to support themselves or have a sponsor…meaning Texans that will help the immigrant get set up…no public housing, government assistance, free health care etc. JAT What do yall think?
We in Texas must take care to properly indoctrinate our new arrivals and to use what ever tactics necessary to convert them to being Texans or convert them to being gone. Don’t let the same thing to Txas happen, which has happened to Florida, Arizona and Nevada, where the local culture was overrun by “Damn Yankee” “Damn Mexican” or “Damn Californian” immigrants, who are trying to convert the states to Liberal Blue.
Wonderful idea, let us Texans declare war against the rest of the US, and gradually take back our country, one state at a time, and we can let the bluest of the blue to last, while they starve.
”What are you going to do with Austin?
“ Fumigate it, and what does survive, gets put on a work farm…
Gas ‘em to death or stick them in labor camps… Hmmmm… I’ve heard that somewhere before…
I’m not laughing anymore.
Republicans once again proving they have more in common with genocidal Nazis than they like to admit.
That is some seriously threatening stuff. I’ve never thought the secession stuff was very funny and I think this is what they get when politicians speak irresponsibly. Rick Perry should be ashamed!
Oh, I’m guilty of laughing, and I probably still will. That said, I just had my consciousness raised. Laughing while sitting in blue, NE state is a luxury some in Texas may not have. I will keep that in mind.
The only thing that bothers me about this post is that I clicked through to the original blog link, where there is no link to that thread on the Freeper site. Then I searched the Freeper site. Then I searched the text quoted. All I could find is the blog post linked here, or that same post being cited. I have not been able to find the original text on a Freeper site anywhere.
I am not suggesting the quote is made-up, but I would love it if anyone could find it on the original site where it ran. I have not been able to do so.
Perhaps it got deleted, Steve. You’ll have to ask pandora.
I know that happens UI. And again, I was not throwing stones–I had just wanted to read it in the original context and see what kind of responses it got there.
Yeah, I’m curious about that too. If it got deleted, that’s probably a good sign.
I only checked a couple of these comments, but the ones I checked did come up as comments — not their own posts — on the Free Republic site.
Here are a few of the posts with some of the comments. I haven’t had time to read them all. Lots of debate on how and if Texas can secede.

And then there’s this one that gave me the creeps: …..
“but it wouldn’t be THE COWBOY WAY!”……
Yeah, and there is just something about that gentle push of my M1A as I stroke it’s gold plated trigger and the sight of the puke crumpling to the ground as I inhale the pungent aroma of 43 grains of IMR 4064 pushing a 165 grn BTSP downrange through his brain pan. sign a paper or suffer the consequences, either way I smell freedom in the air.
Sorry, but you’re going to have to scroll though all of this (like I did!) because I couldn’t figure out a way to link to individual comments. Hope this helps.

I have come to the conclusion you’re right; I think the original blogger tied together several comments in a thread by one (maybe two) people posting that sort of made a coherent set of paragraphs between them.
Again, I wasn’t challenging the authenticity of the material.
Guess my main point is that secession talk isn’t something to joke about.
Oh, I don’t know about that.
Our own responses of the point and laugh variety are probably the best immediate way to let them know that we aren’t much intimidated by the thuggishness. Especially in light of the fact that they apparently can’t manufacture their own Tamiflu (or at least don’t have heir own stockpiles).
On that note, Cassandra… if, as these threads promise, all liberals will pack up and leave Texas, wouldn’t that be the ultimate “Going Galt?”
