Texas needs to be restored and protected as a Constitutional Republic, along with the inherent, inalienable rights of the people. The madness of radicals in Congress in control of our health, economy, energy, immigration, security, etc. needs to be stopped. We fought against those things then – why would we not fight against those things now? But should we really leave? How about flipping the question and asking, “Why would we join? If Texas were a self-governing independent nation right now – with the Ninth largest economy in the world, control of our own borders, energy, healthcare, laws, etc. – what would be the reasons for joining the United States?
Well…..umm….let’s see….. Not one person has ever been able to answer that question with a valid response. So, if you can’t make a case for why Texas should join, why would you ever try to make a case that we shouldn’t leave?” It is important to keep in mind that Texas overpays the federal government $103-$160 billion every year, while the U.S. has accrued over $30 Trillion in national debt. Most of the laws that are made are done so by 2 ½ million unaccountable federal bureaucrats.
All Texans want is to be allowed to keep their fundamental rights. Texans value freedom, liberty, rights, rule of law, prosperity, and opportunity. “Texans at their very core are just tired of having to wake up every day and fight for something that they were born with.”

It is against the law for a state to leave our union. We learned this the hard way the first time. Let's not do that again.

Isn't just Texans.

Oh.
Is it against the law to steel elections?, To frame the President of the US? To imprison political appointees?To open the doors to drug cartels and worse? To lie steal and cheat? To encourage young pre teens to have sex changes?
Oh...Give me a break. No once cares about the law anymore obviously.

It’s technically not against the law. It’s against Supreme Court precedent, but as we all know, SC precedent can be (and in this case is) incredibly flawed

If it's against the law to leave, then it is more a hostage situation than a union.

It was against the law for the colonies to leave the Crown as well.
I suppose you would’ve backed England in 1776.

It's against the law to cheat in an election, too.
It's against the law to spy on a political campaign for the purpose of cheating in an election.
A Constitution for some is no constitution at all.

It’s against the law not to deport illegal immigrants.

It’s against the law to burn cities and federal buildings but the dem filth not only did that but refused to prosecute their own. Meanwhile they they set up republicans in Jan 6 and claim they invaded the capitol as an insurrection. bullshite
The left hates us and they lie, cheat, steal and pervert this country on an hourly basis. They also go after our religion while refusing to touch Muslims and other faiths. This country wants us to comply or die so I say frick them and we just secede. As one poster wrote, “constitution for some is no constitution at all.” Its time we leave and prove to the rest of this country who actually has the better system, freedom/capitalism or socialism/fascism.

Its also against the law to enter the country without a passport or visa. And against the law to not prosecute and deport those who are caught entering illegally. Its against the law for pedestrians to block traffic on a freeway or to loot and burn down businesses. Dems don’t seem too worried about enforcing those laws

IF, Texas were to ever be able to leave the Union, I'm going with them, and back to Horseshoe Bay.
Even with it's border issues, I have far more faith in Tejas to fix itself, than the USA to ever stop it's slide into the abyss, in completing it's suicide.

Try again ... Stop repeating myths.
White vs. Texas ...Justice Cash states an opinion in his opinion...It is not Constitutional Law.
If you read trash, you crap trash.

Who the hell told you that? It's expressly written in our founding documents.
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 entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

I was against the law for British colonies to declare their own independence and disobey the crown, too.

Are we in Bondage to the "federal" government?

There are a lot of laws that the government chooses not to enforce. Just look at mass illegal immigration.

Exceptional point, especially in light of what this government does to Texas by not controlling its own southern border. I think it obvious that the US needs Texas more than Texas needs the US

It was also illegal to leave the crown at one point.
