    It is funny to see the calls like this and also the calls for civil war. The number of texans capable of shooting down an F35 with the puny small arms they bought is zero. Shoot, replace F35 with any plane built in the past 50 years.

    That is why there will never be a civil war.

    Before you start mumbling something about republicans flying F35s, keep in mind you actually have to have an ounce of intelligence to fly one. If they had any intelligence they would not be republican.

      Texan here. We don’t want a civil war, it’s just far right nutjobs. We would do fine as our own country, but things would be worse quality of life wise.

      Does Texas become open season or would war have to be declared? Mainly I don’t want to join/get drafted but I’m down to fuck around.

        You need a fuck-ton of infrastructure to keep fighter jets flying. The service time to fight time ratio is ~18:1. Nothing but an established state has the organization and the logistics supply to keep one in the air.

            You still would need the help of the entire government to keep the jets flying and armed. No fuel delivery? Cut out of satelite usage? No GPS? You’re fucked and then put in jail and/or to death, because the US have death penalty

                What “you’re telling me” doesn’t make any sense. How on earth would holding a little airbase surrounded by the largest military force in the world, and a NATO member?
