Forget The Alamo

I really think that the US needs to start forgetting about The Alamo and just tell Texas to 'fuck off'.  I mean, it's clear that the 'Lone Star State' thinks that it is superior to every other state, ('Everything's bigger in Texas') - just watch any Western if you doubt me, Texans in them are always bragging.  Now, they seem to want to defy Federal law, (those bastards in Washington are apparently telling them that they can't use razor wire on the border).  So we now have nutters with guns doing cosplay on the border, pretending to be military, threatening to defend their razor wire against any attempts by the Feds to remove it.  It could lead to civil war, the Russian Foreign Minister hopefully speculates.  Well, if they don't like US laws, then why not just expel them from the union?  After all, there was a period between Texas gaining independence from Mexico and joining the United States that it was an independent country.  (There is still a plaque on a building in London declaring it as the Texan embassy dating from this period).  Or perhaps they could rejoin Mexico - that would solve their border problems.  They could call it 'Texit', I suppose.  Because 'Brexit' really is something to be copied - we in the UK can thoroughly recommend it.  Not.

I'm thinking that maybe Biden should encourage Texas to leave - hurl a few insults at them, introduce more outrageous legislation. Like limiting gun ownership to only one per household and even then only with a barrel of less than three inches. In a state where manhood is measured by how many and how big your guns are, that should cause an uprising, surely.  Or maybe insist that there has to be a black family and an Hispanic family living on every street.  Because, let's face it, being a place full of gun toting racist braggarts, Texas is bound to vote for Trump next November, so if Biden can get them out of the union, then that's one less state supporting the orange bastard.  Hell, if the loons are going to keep claiming that Biden was only elected because the 2020 election was rigged, he might as well rig the 2024 one for real.  Another benefit of kicking out Texas is that Elon Musk moved Tesla's corporate HQ there a few years ago (and is now trying to re-incorporate the company there instead of in Delaware, where it is currently incorporated, because he thinks the judges in Texas are less likely to strike down his unearned pay increases than they are in Delaware), so, if we're lucky, he'd  be kicked out with it, which could only benefit the US.  So yeah, forget The Alamo and tell Texas where to get off.
