I have to disagree with my man Scalia. You don't revolt because you don't like a policy. You revolt because you don't have the power to change that policy. That's what the American Revolution was all about. We have exactly the government we deserve, because we have the government we vote for. People should talk about overthrowing their government, but they should do it through the vote.
Negative, Texas should secede and take a few states with us.

I didn't take it as a call for an armed revolt, more a figurative revolt.

I would thing think that if the states of the SEC were to leave and take the mountain west with them, both groups would be happier.
