Showing Original Post only (View all)DUers from TX, exactly how popular is this secessionist movement(? ) there? [View all]
Martin Bashir just ran a video of some guy from TX whining about how their rights and culture have been stripped from them and that they are going to quit playing nice with the rest of us and leave.
I see these statements being made periodically on national shows but am wondering about what the average Texan says when someone makes those statements in --say-- your average social event. How much traction do they have?

From what I understand (relatives in Texas), it's as popular there as it is in Vermont.
