That's not true. That's last time someone TRIED secession. It's suggested regularly in at least 4 or 5 states with no reaction whatsoever.
Man, someone should slap Rick Perry and then hand him some tapes of what happened at Waco and at Ruby Ridge.

Its going to be enjoyable seeing Slick Rick lose his primary next year.
In all seriousness, what in the does that have to do with anything?
Not a Perry fan, but I don't think KBH poses as big a threat as people think. All he's got to do is point and say "she's a pro-choice Washington insider".
I'm more worried about my hair than I am of KBH.
Manny. Are you suggesting that the govt handled those situations WELL?
What are you getting at?
You need to be worried if Kinky decides to run again.
You are damn right about that!!!
Freak, Perry is a hack.
More specifically the Republic of Texas movement that invaded a home, kidnapped a family after shooting a member of that family and got one of their members killed in the resulting standoff in 97.
Perry is an idiot.
Don't forget Tim McVey....he held many of the same beliefs...
Of course, I'm just saying this actually happened in Texas.
ing Repugs are completely ing nuts. Out of power and widely disrespected for supporting and being the party of dubya, head, and the bogus war fiascos, they are spewing bull fantasy bull , appealing the hard right, of which there isn't enough to get them elected.
Keep ing yourselves, Repugs, nobody ing cares.
Split up the US, TX secede from US? GMAFB. total insanity of no consequence.
whenever someone talks of secession, that weird cult is the first thing that comes to mind.
Nice job, Perry
WTF? Isn't it obvious the type of people secession talk appeals to and riles up? You started a thread on right wing extremists and you don't know much about them? Where did I imply anything about how those situations were handled. Perry is saying what those type of people want to hear and that is not a good thing. That was the (I thought obvious) point.
Some people at work were talking about how Texas could survive on its own if it seceded. Yeah, ing right.
You know how many bases are in Texas? the US would swoop down with military, economic embargoes and so many other forces that Texas would have to rejoin the Union in a week, and change their name to Stupidana or maybe Dumbachusetts.
Good for Texas. I wonder what Oregon would be like if we seceded. Probably couldn't, being as liberal of a state as it is.
Texas can't legally secede.
It's a stupid fantasy.
They were talking about it on the horrible Walton and Johnson (sp?) show here, and saying how Texas could probably pick up neighbors like Louisiana, Oklahoma and others. I just wonder what reality/world these people live in.
I agree, but it wakes people up when there is such talk.
Not really.
It makes stupid people break the law, someone gets hurt and/or killed, then things go back to the way they were.
yes, we wake up and say "great, another dumbass".
Hard to say. I don't think it would ever happen, but there are legal reasons to make the claim to secede.
The Declaration of Independence
When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God en le them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation...
