Texit when?

We already had a war over whether states are allowed to secede.
Spoiler: they're not.
>>61982714
>spoiler: we've never tried peaceful secession
Texas vs White can be overturned
>>61982614
>45% Hispanic and rising fast
Lol, if anything they'll "Texit" right back to Mexico.
>>61982857
When they do, can we take it again and force the mexishits out?
>>61982857

Probably not. Texas today has far more Mexicans (both in absolute terms and as a percentage of the population) than it did when Texas was part of Mexico nearly 200 years ago.
>>61982824
Yes we have. It is illegal for a state to secede from the Union. The ONLY way is if it declared war of independence, in which case it would be a pretty easy war unless its another Civil War (around half of the states seceding).

Depends, ethnically yes, legally no. Tbh Texas was big fuck up of Mexico by letting the Anglos immigrate there. Essentially, the Anglos entering Texas agreed to be law abiding Mexican citizens but of course the Texans stabbed them in back by refusing to follow the laws. Mexico warned them, they did not listen.
>>61983400
In Texas v. White, the United States Supreme Court ruled unilateral secession unconstitutional, while commenting that revolution or consent of the States could lead to a successful secession.
Other states could consent and we'd be free.
>>61983437
Didn't the laws change after they were already there and Mexico became a dictatorship, then they declared independence when Santa Anna decided to try to end slavery in Mexico?
>>61983438
No it didnt. That stated Texas cannot legally exit the Union BUT it can break into 5 smaller states by the consent of other states.
>all this talk about how it's illegal for a state to secede
What're they gonna do? Arrest the state?
>>61983504
libcucks will die on both sides so I'm happy
If a state in the US can't declare independence then why is the US trying to make other states around the world... Independent?
>>61983474
Sort of. Slavery was almost non existent by the time Texas was being colonized by Anglos. Slavery was declared illegal in 1829 but Texas didn't declare independence until 1836. Slavery was temporarily banned around the war of independence. But yeah slavery wasn't really outlawed until Anglos brought in slaves.
>>61983504
Pretty sure conspiracy to secede from the Union would count as treachery (similar to Civil War) and therefore they would indeed arrest people who conspired against the government but only people directly involved, citizens unlikely would be affected.

>Liberation of Tyranny and Spread of Democracy
The states are more Democratic than the Federal government as a whole (which is a Republic not a Democracy)
>>61983504
forgetting the civil war already?
from what I know, yankees kicked the shit out of your asses.
>>61983437
No, what happened is that Santa Anna seized power and basically ripped up the Mexican constitution. Texas wasn't the only region of Mexico to attempt to secede after that, it was just the only one that succeeded.
>>61983663
So in other words the federal government,it's agents and it's institutions have to be targetted in a case of independence?
You know what to do goys
Go Full McVeigh On Their asses.
>>61983699
Pretty much what I said (in a more biased way towards Mexico). But yes.
>tfw no Republica del Rio Grande
