The union between Texas and the other States was as complete, as perpetual, and as indissoluble as the union between the original States. There was no place for reconsideration or revocation, except through revolution or through consent of the States.

It's not genocide to kill secessionists.

If you look back, all I considered it was unwise. The court decided the issue. People in DC can now have handguns in their houses.

Children aren't responsible for their parents, otherwise YUP

Bomb every building in secessionist territory, every road, every bridge, every power plant, every dam. Treason is treason

I sometimes wish half of Montana would leave. Especially some of those gun-toting weirdos. I am all for smart people owing guns but my experience is most of them don't qualify. Especially the ones who talk about their precious gun rights.

Montana has nuclear bombs, and a missile system that can deliver.

Try it!

We already have nuclear treaties with North Dakota, Missouri, Georgia, Louisiana, Texas, Wyoming, New Mexico, Colorado, Nevada, and Washington State.
