According to a recent poll conducted by the University of Texas and the Texas Tribune, the majority of Texas residents believe that the federal government is planning to arrest political dissentnents during a “domestic military intervention.”
One striking result from the poll was the reasons respondents thought the federal government would intervene.
“You put federal government into it and people’s skepticism and their concern really rises,” said Daron Shaw, a professor at UT-Austin.
“It cuts into everybody’s suspicion,” Shaw stated. “Nobody trusts the federal government. About a third of Democrats are concerned about the government going nuts. Among Republicans, it’s between 55 percent and two-thirds.”

Last time it was called the War of Southern Aggression ot the Civil War. AS the Founding Fathers wrote, 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 $#%&!@*ume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God en$#%&!@*le them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
lol, I am not offended by that flag, Rebel does not equate to Anarchy. Anarchy is just total choas with no rules. I do not own that flag, nor will I ever. I do not Pledge alligence to that flag. I pledge Alligence to the US Flag. I will defend the Texas flag as it stands today. I will however support your right to post, fly or wear whatever flag you want. Confederate, gay pride, Christian, whatever.
States rights should not infringe on the overall founding do$#%&!@*ents. That was where the problem lies between the North and South.
In modern times, for example, I would go against any state, who wished to make Islam their only “states rights” appointed religion, as that would infringe upon the alot of our Amendments!
To equate that flag to anarchy, however is ludericous. Even the democrats who supported that flag and fought the Union still had rules they wanted to live by.
The states rights and federal government where supposed to be set up as a system of checks and balances, to ultimately ensure the freedoms of all, and that one did not get more “powerful” than the other.
lol, and I would surely go against any state that wanted to have states rights to re-allow slavery, force children into child labor, claim only one religion as their only religion (others could be prosecuted and sentenced to death), Outlaw citizens ownership of guns, and the list can go on, even to something less evil and just flat out silly, like only allowing certain colors of clothing to be worn or foods allowed to be eaten.
Yet, because we have states rights, the Federal government can not force any of that c**p on us either. i.e. the federal government has no right to ban that flag.
That flag represents alot of different things to alot of different people, and it is a right of our first amendment to fly it or not, but it in no way means “anarchy” ( choas, no rules)
The arguments on what this flag represents are just blown way out there… it’s like having the is this dress blue or is it white arguement. I say it is polka dot! :p So there! Neener Neener.
It won’t happen through our military… too many patriots. If it happens it will be through the department george bush created – Dept of Homeland Security. It’s the forerunner of the $#%&!@* SS.
thanks george bush…
and thanks for chief justice john roberts who gave us 0bamacre
Only way to break free from the government and take back the country is anarchy, and that’s what that flag stand for…. I will never stand behind the American. It’s as un American as our president!!!
Obama’s great-great-great-great grandfathers, George Washington Overall, owned a 15-year-old girl and a 25-year-old man. The same records show that one of Obama’s great-great-great-great-great-grandmothers, Mary Duvall, also owned two black slaves — a 60-year-old man and a 58-year-old woman.
~ I agree. All the preparations are already under way.

Oh my you are exactly right , God help us all!
The American Flag does not represent our government, politicians, or president. It represents “We the People”! You pledge alligence to the flag, you pledge alligence to the Republic (go look it up if you don’t know what a republic is).
“I pledge alligence to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic…” The US is a Republic, not a democracy. Power to the People!! (not the government)
Send it to me I will paste and repost what you told us
