    Is there generally support for this kind of thing over there?
    It's Texas... I mean what do you expect? I never believed all the hype about Texas until I met my cousin for dinner one night. The guy is a professor at Texas Tech, and he reassured me that Texas is... well as unique as people say.

    Wreck'Em Tech!

    As per the topic. We aren't all crazy but these kind of people are the ones who get pissed off enough to run for the local school board.

    I would also like to point out these people are probably good for nothing carpetbaggers/East Texans

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.
