They fought for separation from the Crown. True, just as those that share my opinion want to fight to escape the oppressive govt of the US that we perceive as inevitable. But thru secession, hopefully it would be bloodless. And you speak of leaving? We don't want to leave Texas. And if we don't secede, and our Govt becomes what many of us fear, a Govt that will determine virtually everything in your life - From what you can own, guns, type food you eat, the car you have, what you learn about current events - this is a small sampling and I listed them because they're already working on these and many more, then many of us will say, Give me liberty or give me death.

Pam, I honestly admire the fact that you get on this thread and defend your position, your thoughts, and your feelings. I'm also saddened because no one has joined you. In my earlier post on the US heading to socialism or communism, I wanted someone a lot smarter than me to explain why I was wrong. Why, because I do love this country. None have done so. Since you and I are probably very close to the same IQ level, I want to make an effort to show you why, on most of your points, I think we disagree, based from my perspective Greatest nation to ever exist - we agree, absolutely. But it's headed down the wrong road. Socialism/communism has no business in a country where all should expect freedom. The current Democratic Party platform advocates Socialism, and a few Republicans either do, or at least don't appear to question it. B. Sanders is an admitted Socialist, and in an interview, Hillary couldn't (wouldn't) explain the diff in the DNC platform and Socialism, and they have approx 50% of the electorate vote. You said fight to improve the country. I know you meant in the system, but how do you fight the idealism of almost 50% of voters with most educators turning out hundreds of thousands more yearly, which in our soon to be lost democracy, will consummate the change. IMO it's to late for that. To many of us kept thinking it wouldn't go this for and stuck our heads in the sand. The other "fight", which is physical, like our founding fathers did, would be a bloody, horrible event. To horrible to contemplate. Many of the Militia's you hear about are preparing for that now. Secession, if done soon before the Socialist/Communist take over, again my opinion, would not invoke an attack from the US. It would not be easy, but minuscule sacrifice compared to those at Valley Forge, and throughout the Revolutionary War. Finally, I'll address your last comment that you find secession from the country we love unpatriotic. I can only speak for me, but the path this country I love is now taking is leading to a place where, "I love this country" will change to "I loved this country". This post probably won't change your mind, and I respect that. Just want you, and sadly probably the majority of other Texans, to know why those of us who are for secession think what we do.

Never heard of it until your post, but I've liked Star Wars since 1977, so I was aware of it. Only other recent show I know was that, IMO, stupid Mad Max show my SIL got the DVD. As I posted before, last movie I went to was Kung Fu Panda with my G'son. At my age, keep entertained watching Matlock reruns.

Amazing sn, I've taken your simple, but accurate statement, and expanded on it. Want to share with y'all. As with similar list, there are exceptions. So here's my list of voters: Rep conservative: Informed but whose ranks are shrinking since the IDKN (I don't know nuttin) virus evolved in the universities and spread to the electorate Rep moderate: Realizes it's the 21st Century but isn't sure why the media refers to President Bush as Obama Rep liberal (The RINO): evolved from the Dem conservative (see below) Dem conservative: an extinct species (Ruthlessly hunted to extinction by the DNC) Dem moderate: as voters though rare, they do still exist. They are aware of current PC and Climate change, but when polled were not aware that socialism wasn't an acronym for something Dem liberal: unique since its been discovered there are two types. neither have ever studied history or economics. 1- the bernie - older ones waiting for next Woodstock and younger ones think everything will be free and they'll never have to work and a car (electric) in every garage and copious joints to consume 2 - the overthehillary - eagerly anticipate communist rule so everyone is broke and misery loves company except the ruling class which entry into requires a dna match with Marks, Stalin, Putin or Hillary

Has any of y'all seen the new Star Wars movie? I heard this one is closer to the first three. Do love movie popcorn with enough butter it's pooled in the bottom when I get all the popcorn out. I'm guessing it'll win some awards next year if it's any good at all.

Just a guess, I'd say yes. Many more on welfare, many more potential socialist. What PO's me, these are the folks who have the integrity to bust their butts on a low paying job to provide for themselves. Should they get raises, sure. But small business has kept America employed forever, and Govt needs to tread lightly when implementing changes.

The transition to a Republic would cost, some individuals possibly more, but as PN-G pointed out if our current taxes would be a surplus to Texas overall. But not sure I understand the counterproductive. Perhaps we are looking at diff aspects? I'm no genius so bear with me. We're currently in a country where approx 50% of the electorate will vote for a party that is for Socialism. Would not have happened 30 years ago. Will that get better? No way. Why? Because our educational institutions continue to brainwash most students. In blue states, Calif for instance, from kindergarten thru college. As these new advocates of Socialism or Communism enter into the electorate, it's inevitable that in the near future the United States will be a Socialist country. As 5GB pointed out, this won't affect me, but I hate it for my kids & grandkids. Now, me & my family have loved the US. Served in the Army for it. My son in the Corp. Don't want to leave it. Just think we're being forced too. Now I'd appreciate anyone to explain to me where or why I'm wrong on us being on the road to Socialism. But make a solid case. Don't just tell me it'll never happen. I've seen to many things happen that I Never thot would happen. And If you're conservative or independent, you will too.
