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.”

Unfortunately you won’t find that this thread has a large number of active duty. It does have a large number who never wore the uniform, though. Sadly. (Army Ranger, combat vet. And my vet and active duty brothers concur that this secessionist bs is…bs.)
Agree.
This is retarded! Poll like this happen when you only ask you inbred friends questions!
Bunch of paranoid people on here. If you think succession is the answer you have not paid attention to our history. Having said that no veteran I have ever met would take up arms against its own citizens. None of our police officers would disarm us. It would have to be the UN in that case bring em on. But this is just paranoid people spreading fear.
Those of acting like you are excited about something like this possibly happening are living in a fantasy land. Also need to remind ya’ll we might be a red state but barely. Did you see the last polls? I could see them wanting our oil but that’s about it. No TX cop is coming for your guns and no American soldier will come for American civilians. If the man in charge ever mentioned that he would loose the military instantly. If he wanted to use the UN then it would be target practice. If they wanted TX it wouldn’t be in such away that the rest of America would fight with us.
Talks comments are funny though
Y’all’s comments are funny though
Thank you for that comment. I’m not a vet but have spent a lot of time taking American bad$#%&!@*es hunting. This was my first thought when I read most of these comments. Thank you for ur service and level head
Ever heard of Port Mansfield?
Kill the lion and the rest of the jungle falls in line. The government knows if they can subdue Texas, all other states will submit and accept tyranny. Also if the other states see us stand and fight they would be encouraged to do the same.
