The real concern is the oncoming race war. And in such a conflict the only winners will be the Eskimos. They hunt whales in canoes, seriously who's going to beat that kind of moxy?

Texas will become it's own country. The bible belt will form what someone already called "Jesusland", with me moving out of Georgia as a result. Florida will be annexed by Cuba. The northeast will become a financial powerhouse country like Switzerland. The native Americans will take back the midwest ... the rest of the country won't complain. California will combine with Oregon and Washington state and will legalize all drugs, declare Spanish as the national language, and solve all their debt problems through drug tourism. In an unprecedented move Sarah Palin will have Alaska declare war on Russia, and promptly lose due to incompetent leadership. Japan will use this opportunity to make up for WW2 and conquer Hawaii.

I would end up becoming the Benevolent Dictator for Life of Schneiderguyland. You all would be my subjects.

It already happened. How do you think Obama is in office? I am sure next year the Teabaggers, racists and God-loving sheeple will win the next civil "war."

So it depends on the times I guess.

You're an idiot.

You have got to be kidding me.

despite your fantasies tell you, the ave Texas citizen is not as well armed as any of those cartels. Many of those dudes are ex-special forces.

it all depends, of course, on the military bases and militia remaining a part of Texas.

Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see every one in those cartels murdered and I don't care who does it, but I don't doubt that they'd be able to sweep in and claim a significant swath of southern Texas before meeting and serious resistance.

I have no doubt that Mexican cartels could take over south Texas but does one really think they could take over "Texas AND several surrounding areas"? Shit, Texas is large enough. Could cartels really take over Texas with New Mexico, Oklahoma, and/or Louisiana?
