I disagree. I'm not the only one arguing for its possibility.

The only ones lacking argument or logic are those dismissing the talk as impossible or simply dismissing their opponents as traitors. You think the United states would risk war with a nuclear power like Russia, over the supplying of rebels?

It seems some appear to live in a fantasy world where the United states is invulnerable to successful rebellion or secession

You've yet to provide any realistic scenario in which Texas would be able to get into the positions you describe. You're making nonsense assumption after nonsense assumption so Texas can point nukes at the US, and possibly even use them, to secure its independence. Of course we're dismissing it.

Nah, we'd just wave some money in front of Castro's face, he'd realize what's at risk if he helps the rebels, and turn away the shipments. Cuba already helps us with the illegal drug shipments.

There are not enough batshit insane lunatics in Texas to form an army that would be willing to get shot at in the name of defending the "sanctity of marriage" and all that bullshit.

...and must I point out that you're assuming Russia to be batshit enough to risk nuclear war with America while at the same time insisting America wouldn't play global thermonuclear chicken with Putin over an outright violation of American territorial integrity?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!

You actually think Putin would start a nuclear war over some crazy Texans? Your arguments are not even delusional anymore, that would be giving them too much credit.

They absolutely will "risk" that because errant nuclear devices in the hands of violent secessionists is a near and evident threat to the US that must be dealt with.

This.

And AIU even if they did use the Nukes, it would totally not create a huge cloud of fallout that would blanket all of the US, Mexico, and Canada and cause irreversible damage to the already fragile ecosystem that we currently have. (Assuming that you're talking about nuking the entire US.)

Oh, I forgot, Yankees are too wussy to fight. :roll:

They said that in 1860.

The fact is Yankees don't LIKE to fight. We'd rather stay home and chow down on our chowder and stuff. But that doesn't mean we CAN'T fight.

I'm kinda in the awkward space between Yankee and Dixie, but it's true. I think Northerners in general are more diplomatic, but they still fight.

Can't be. If this was an RP we'd wait on calling someone out for godmodding until after the nukes were thrown about and two dozen dwarf states popped out of fucking nowhere to send three billion soldiers each to aid both sides at once.
