I’m with Collegedropout, you lost this one T!

It’s settled, Texas is part of the South! Damnit.

Texas was a confederate state, I’m not sure how this is actually a debate.

It was.

But most of the state is decidedly unique in culture separate from the rest of the South. Let the rest of them have their Southern thing. We don't need it here. We're more than that. We're bigger than that. We're BETTER than that.

And they must deal with that fact.

Texas is Texas

The Deep South is the true south: Alabama, Louisiana, Georgia, Mississippi, the Florida panhandle, Tennessee. Thats it.

Most people in Texas don’t consider themselves Southern at all. They want to be called Texans.

Most people in Louisiana consider themselves Lousianans or Cajuns. Guess Louisiana isn't a part of the South

Neither of those states have the panache of Texas.

This article explains why Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, and Arizona are all part of the South.

Of course, those with low IQs will just stick their fingers in their ears.

My ancestors settled this state, they were Texas Rangers and Sheriffs and Mayors and just because a bunch of liberals and non-Southerners come in thinking that they can dictate what is what doesn't make it so.

Virginia > Texas and it's not even close, the people who came to Texas were the second born sons that didn't inherit their fathers land in Virginia. (More likely Arkansas or Alabama, but they were there because they didn't inherit land in Virginia.)

I've never lived outside of South Texas but if Virginia had an oil and gas industry like Texas I would probably prefer to live there.
