War is won by tactic, strategies, and brains, not by force. California has a higher education score than Texas. California wins.

LMFAO! California schools are a joke! I used to live in Riverside. And who gives a flying fuck what the landscapes look like both have oceans and desert.

Riverside is sort of the Texas part of California.

There's no comparing the lands the two have. I bid Yosemite.

Oh, you fold.

We didn't get to our redwoods, Lake Tahoe, our wild coast - even our desert is far better, including the much more interesting Death Valley. Texas has what, 98% dirt.

What the fuck does armed citizens have to do with anything?
We employ armies to win wars.
Maybe someone needs to define the fight.

So with this in mind, whoever has the bigger military presence will win a war.

Asking who has a bigger military presence isn't much better. California is basically home to the defense industry but Texas probably has more people who own a guy.

Some people might think it's a typo, but it may not be. The Alamo they remember was filled with people who were angry about slavery being under attack in the US.

Mexico can't even win a war in there own country.

'Their' own (are you from Texas) - but even if they're so bad they can't win in their own country, it doesn't mean they won't find Texans easy to defeat.

Drug cartels vs. Rick Perry and his merry men...

My money is on the cartels.

No one in Texas has yet realized we have schneiderguy. CA will win for sure.

schneiderguy will defect from his crazy librul environs to glorious Texas. BoomerD couldn't stand to be alone, so he will naturally follow schneiderguy. Then California will only have JulesMaximus and Craig234. Texans have less manlets, too. We win.

EDIT: Shit, I forgot about Baked. He can negotiate the inevitable treaty formed in the wake of Texan triumph.

good luck to california with no oil.

as for doing it with federales:



california has no strategic bombers and no active army divisions. so, no, not really.
I'm always amazed that everyone discounts submarines when it comes to the military argument. Subs counted for more kills on the Japanese military than any other weapon we had and that was just the diesel electrics of back then. Now they are the most powerful weapons on earth, have been for decades and Loma is home to a bunch of them (submarine squadron 11)
