    Texas seceded from Mexico because Mexico outlawed slavery.

      And seceded from the US because they thought the US might do the same.

    Laws don’t matter if they get in the way of owning people.

    Texas became its own country after independence from Mexico only because the USA initially wouldn’t let it join. The overall preference for being a member of a larger nation where descendants of English immigrants held power and were allowed to own slaves was stable over time.

      Kinda. Yeah.

      It’d be hilarious watching Texas turn into a giant shithole with abbot leading it.

      It’s suck for all the not-assholes there, though.
