No Texas you can't secede I don't care what your state constitution says.
Supremacy Clause, y'all.
Also if you somehow managed it we'd pull an Israel and block all your water. Maybe send it to California so they can save some endangered freshwater minnow in the Sacramento delta.

It's a shame that you've stolen this from them, though.
I guess you kids go fifteen minutes without [chat] and start to get the shakes.
I feel a tremendous swell of pity for your addictive personalities.

I'm not sure that's a good idea, I think all the Craigslist prostitutes are actually cops now.
It gives me the wiggins that prostitution is illegal in some otherwise semi-civilised countries
Whether they are people with no other options or happy hookers this only serves to make them vulnerable to people who know at their options for legal recourse are limited.
I can't believe the independence day sequel is bad and didn't release on the 4th of July, how do you fuck up both things?
It isn't, that is odd, and they didn't
The original ID4 is an incredibly stupid, somewhat crass film that I saw in the theater three times over the course of two weeks when I was twelve (maybe thirteen), and then immediately found to be dumb as hell on home video less than a year later
This sequel might actually be a slightly more intelligent, somewhat less crass movie! But nerds are gonna nerd, and I'm starting to believe that The Internet is a special place where people want to be disappointed no matter their claims to the contrary

AAAAAAAAAA THIS DRIVES ME CRAZY
TEXAS DOES NOT HAVE A THING IN THE STATE CONSTITUTION ABOUT SUCCESSION THAT IS A MYTH
Despite popular belief, even by politicians who should know better, the Texas constitution does not include a get-out-of-The-Union-free clause no matter how much Texans, or citizens of other states, wish that it did.
However, the Texas Constitution does have a weird clause that allows it to divide itself into five states without the approval of congress.
But I mean if Texas just said they were their own country now would the Federal government really stop them with force?
No, theyd stop them by removing all military bases, university funding, agricultural subsidies, make them pay for use of our pipelines, and treat their oil industry as a foreign one.
Nobody who actually thinks about things in Texas wants it to secede.

Yes. Texas is a net contributor to the federal budget and runs an essential (and independant) component of the national power grid, not to mention the natural resources (fossil fuels if all types in abundance).

But pretty much all of us just start loudly shouting PRESERVE THE UNION whenever anybody talks about breaking things up.
AND ALSO IT CAN'T
