Abbot should use this map as reference on where to send the buses....green marks the spot!
The focal point for Texas firearms information and discussions

And the map looks to be very different than the one hypothesized in the new movie Civil War (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt17279496/? ... il%2520war). I don't know if I'll ever consider watching it. The writer and director is a Londoner who decided to make a movie about a near-future U.S. civil war, and he has Texas and California as the two big soulmate cornerstones of the rebellion. Say what? Can you see Abbott and Newsome getting all BFF?powerboatr wrote: ↑Sat Jan 27, 2024 4:01 pm this states in red control what...90% of fossil fuel and 80% of sea ports

At this moment in time, Texas holds the future of America in its hands. Biden (and his boss Obama) will do anything to stop Texas. Can Texas stand up to the president, the federal government, and the Supreme Court? Can they show red Republican states how to block the foreign invasion? Can they keep America safe until the cavalry (Trump) rides in? Our future rides on Texas.
Lol...Trump the cavalry? No one is coming to save us.Paladin wrote: ↑Sun Jan 28, 2024 7:19 pm WAYNE ROOT: This is THE Most Dangerous Moment in America’s History. We are All Texans Now.

Only sort of topic-related, but since you served our country with over two decades in the Navy, yet another sign of the times:powerboatr wrote: ↑Sat Jan 27, 2024 6:04 pm as a military person you are not bound to follow illegal or unlawful orders. for me i only saw this once in 22 years a full on rebuke of a leader and the xo invoking a power to remove said CO by his unlawful actions. IT WAS UGLY UGLY UGLY not as bad as the submarine movie with denzel. but still a tense period of time and even more tense when we returned to home port.
All branches of the armed services are facing recruitment problems big-time. In 2022, the Navy did meet its active duty enlistment target, but it had to deplete its "Delayed Entry Program" pool to the lowest level for that program in 40 years to accomplish it. They didn't have that resource to pull on in 2023, and they fell short by almost 7,500 for active duty, and just over 1,000 short for reserve enlistments. They also fell almost 500 short of the goal for recruiting active duty officers.The Navy said Friday that it will allow those without a high school diploma to enlist as long as they score a 50 or higher on the Armed Forces Qualification Test that all prospects must take, the latest move to boost recruitment in the face of an historic recruiting crisis reverberating across the services....
To date, the Navy is the only military branch currently seeking to recruit those without a high school diploma or GED as it works to expand the number of eligible candidates to join the service amid an historically challenging recruiting environment.
That right there is the root cause of the main problem we have in politics in this country today. What is actually best for the people and the Republic comes in at a distant priority compared to personal ambition and party ideology for 90% of the people in the Beltway and in state government.
Yeah, I agree. What’s the acronym…TINVOWOOT? There is no voting our way out of this? RIGHT NOW, at this present time in which we are living at this moment, is absolutely the most dangerous time we’ve been in post-WW2. During the Cuban Missile Crisis, JFK's personal estimate of the risk that it would escalate into a nuclear exchange ran as high as 50/50. What was different back then? We were far more united as a people then, and even the most disenfranchised among us back then were still willing to serve the country in our military. Yes, we had racial tensions, and a few years later, anti-war tensions. But taken as a whole, the American people were WAY more unified than they are now. The dollar wasn’t being threatened with discontinuation as the basis for world currency exchange. The inmates were not yet in control of the asylum. Hell, even most of the congressional Democrats were strongly anti-communist. JFK himself was a life member of the NRA, and rabidly anti-communist.Grayling813 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 29, 2024 10:05 amLol...Trump the cavalry?

Well said. As a father of a 22 and 24 year olds, I’m very concerned about their future.The Annoyed Man wrote: ↑Mon Jan 29, 2024 11:11 amYeah, I agree. What’s the acronym…TINVOWOOT?

That’s all gone down the drain now, and we have a presidential administration, headed up by a senile old puppet who is serving as the public face of a consortium of some truly radical people. How the hell else can you explain a VERY radical far leftist like Karine Jean-Pierre as the administration’s mouthpiece?
Honestly, I believe that the odds of recovery from this are lower than 50/50, no matter who gets elected as POTUS, Trump included. If you want to know where I think we’re headed, try reading Kurt Schlichter’s latest book, "The Attack."
The major factor in Texas ever seceding from the US is that it would be sheer foolishness.Ruark wrote: ↑Mon Jan 29, 2024 7:21 pm The major factor in Texas ever seceding from the US is the fact that virtually everything that happens in Texas is controlled by the four big liberal Democrat population centers: Austin, San antonio, DFW and Houston. These four big liberal cesspools will always have a death grip on state events, regardless of how the other 99.99% of the state feels.
