Will the Texas schools have to form their own football conference again? A&M forced to play on the Longhorn Network?
That would make it all worth it, imo.
Just let them secede, see how it works out for them.

because .1 percent of the population wants to...sure thing.
smh..white people.
That's actually something that comes to mind with me. What the would happen to the universities in Texas if it does secede?
Just get the out. Mav<Spurs, just get the out you America hating traitor sonava sucker. Please live in Afghanistan so we can drone your ass up.
I take back the drone comment. I don't wish death on anybody.
yeah lets say texas seceeds how exactly do we defend ourselves when the gov. pulls out of their bases
lol utsa
Fizzy...
When was the last "White Riot" in the USA?
Obama should read the names on the pe ion on live tv.
In all honestly I'd like to keep Texas around. It has some major cities that contribute a lot to the economy and it's a very important part of our country. Arkansas, Mississippi, Louisiana, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, and West Virginia are the states I would love to see secede from the union. They're all states that receive more in federal subsidies than they pay in taxes (so the notion that they'd do better without the federal government is totally ridiculous but lets let them to starve to death on their own), and none of them contribute anything to society other than SEC football games. West Virginia's geographic location really screws all of those states seceding into one confederacy up, but I think we can make it work. Tennessee and Kentucky are probably the next 2 states I wouldn't mind seceding after those I already mentioned. Those states being gone is all the spending cuts on en lement programs we need since those states take advantage of en lement programs more than any other states.
I'd add Arizona to that list except I was born and raised here so I have tons of friends here and wouldn't wanna see them suffer after I leave. Outside of that and Phoenix being a major city, Arizona is a pretty worthless backwater state that has tons of rednecks who complain about subsidizing minorities when the government needs to provide them with a pot to piss in.
At Ole Miss. on election day. Crowd chanting "******" and destroyed some property.
Or all the tech companies around Austin. Could be a nice tax shelter
The talk radio guys on am 1490 said that might be necessary. They came rather close to encouraging it, but oooh so carefully skirted it.
Taxes would go up instantly, because Texas is a net recipient of all sorts of things. University funding, currency printing, diplomacy, etc, etc etc.
New customs agency
new treasury department
new embassies
new currency (oh that will be fun to see if they get a gold standard... WHOOT)
accounting standards
federal laws concerning just about everything from food inspection to pollution, to gas mileage
banking regulation
A huge amount of needed for a modern economy would have to be cut from whole cloth, even if it was peaceful and successfully done.
me. I post a joke about secession, and peeps start seriously discussing it.
Ole Miss election day riot is to LA riots as fart is to hurricane.

According to butthurt big12 fans, A&M left the state when they joined the SEC, so no, they would not be forced to play on the LHN. Whether the remaining Texas schools would have to form their own conference and play on the LHN would be up to King Rick Perry the 1st.
Seems to me aggy would be ok with calling it SEC A&M just to further distance themselves from all things Austin.
I guess the context and definition of "riot" is sort of up for grabs with apologists:

And proponents:

This is something where the truth is probably somewhere in between. Not quite a full out "burn everything" riot, but certainly not a simple peaceful demonstration either.
It is being seriously discussed here and there, sadly.me. I post a joke about secession, and peeps start seriously discussing it.
