A loud minority of Texans call for Independence, which is not really possible as far as I know, BUT could the Rest of the USA just kick another state (Not necessary Texas) out? Or is this also not possible?

    But go to the wrong areas in small towns and you get jeered at for not being white.

    I’ve seen this even in California. Oildale, CA is the most racist place I’ve ever been, including Alabama, Oklahoma, and Texas. But it goes the other way too. There are small areas that are predominantly black or Mexican that aren’t very safe to be in if you’re white. It’s a real shame, man, especially since it seems to be getting worse, not better.

      Oh yeah. I wasn’t sure how to get across that I wasn’t talking about that as a Texas exclusive thing. It’s everywhere in the US.

      Edit: Texas is the only place I’ve seen someone go on an angry christofascist tirade in my suburban grocery store though.
