Is texas south or is it considered it's own region?

>>72319558
It's a matter of dispute desu
They like to think of themselves as both Southern and their own thing, what is indisputable is that Texas began as Southerners colonizing empty land in Mexico. They were also an independent country for a while so it's understandable why they might feel that way though.

I think I read somewhere that more young people identify as Texans first and Americans second than older people do.

>>72319990
Found it
https://www.texastribune.org/2014/04/03/polling-center-texan-first-american-second/
>Maybe even more surprising, younger voters are more inclined to call themselves Texans first. A slight majority of those who identify as Texans first are between the ages of 18 and 44 years old. Among 18- to 29-year-olds, 40 percent identify as Texans before they identify as Americans, far outpacing any other age group. It’s not grandpa that places the Lone Star over the Stars and Stripes, but his grandchildren.
>Looking to the future, it’s possible that those identifying as Texans will grow. The members of the racial/ethnic group most likely to describe themselves as Texans first are not, in fact, Anglos, among whom 27 percent describe themselves as Texans, but are instead the growing population of Hispanics, among whom 33 percent identify as Texan first.

Why is this board so left-wing all of a sudden?
I used to be one of the most left wing people here, but now there's literal commies everywhere.

>>72323234
/pol/ caused the /leftypol/ to flock here because it also has flags and there's a certain degree of toleration for political discussion. They think if /pol/ is their hugbox than /int/ is their's.

>>72323833
*the right's hugbox

>>72323833

I've never really visited /pol/ more than a handful of times but being able to have political discussions without the thread going full retard is one of the reason I post daily on /int/.

>>72324085
There's no such thing as political "discussion" on /pol/. It's too fast and it's userbase is by and large way too new. Not to mention all the plebbitors on there that usually use Reddit for actual discussion and reserve /pol/ exclusively for getting their shitposting yayas out. Shame because it used to be the best board on the site.

Nowadays /int/ is far better for news, and news isn't even technically allowed here.

>>72319990
As a Texan born and raised then transplanted to Alabama, it's true. I'm a Texan first and everything else second. It's a pride that almost all Texans are raised with. In junior high school, while most others are taking generic social studies, we had Texas history. The pride is great and strong. Don't mess with Texas.

>>72324655
>In junior high school, while most others are taking generic social studies, we had Texas history.
Absolutely based. This should be standard in every state.

>>72319558
The Eastern third is Southern, the Western third is South Western, the pan handle is Great Plains, and the border is Mexican. Make of that what you will.

>>72324873
I guess I could be qualified on the subject since I was born and raise in the Rio Grande Valley, McAllen and to a greater extent Hidalgo County.
I find it to be true. Sure, many, especially some of the last generation are still strongly connected and proud of their Mexican heritage, which actually moreso directly relates to the culture of the natives of long ago, not really Mexico the country. But, yeah, most are proud Texans and glad to be Americans. Still, that Texas pride mostly overrides all other identities. As an RGV native, that too comes with it's own pride within and of itself, although many of the younger ones swear they'd like nothing to do but leave to someplace like DFW, SA or Houston, but The Valley has it's own unique culture that is hard to leave behind and many end up coming back.

Can't really say. I know one that is still probably enshrined in The Valley to this day but it's more of an RVG thing. Selina. When that chick died the whole place fell into mourning for almost a year.
I will say, Texas cowboys/ranchers are real and some tough sumbitches. Ever heard of the saying "take the bull by the horns"? It's no bullshit. Family friend I grew up with did bull riding and he went out to the pasture, grabbed this fucking bull by it's horns, got it to shove and twisted its head. Bull flopped right over on it's side. Now we're talking about one hulking young dude, but I've never saw anything like it then and haven't since.

national debt has shrunk by $89b since inauguration

illegal border crossings down 40% in february

235,000 jobs in feb, average hourly earnings up 2.8% compared to last feb

EO just signed to reorganize and cut the useless fat from government departments

so far so good but unfortunately i don't think he'll be able to destroy the Fed or end birthright citizenship though

>>72326704
I'm there too much but yeah, there's too many communists there lately, not really sure what spurred it on desu but it dies down most of the time when all the underaged go to sleep. Last night we had a nice discussion on coca cola and whether cheese is a topping.

>>72327429
most people have their own countries to worry about, and since he's not starting wars and sending refugees your way I'm not sure why you would. Literally nobody has ever tried to talk about Trump with me here besides my neighborhood Indian shopkeeper and I've never overheard anybody talk about him in public either.

>>72327408
Behind that place was more fields. Once, I was 12-13, we were playing around out there when the owner pulled up. He started yelling but we were a ways away. We flipped him off and kept walking. All of a sudden we heard a boom so we hit the ground. Heard pellets whizzing overhead and landing a bit aways in front of us. We took off running like the devil was on our ass. Never had that happen again, but from that day forward, I knew. When a sign, "Trespassers will be shot", in Texas, they fuckin mean it.

Not surprising really. Around harvest time, some setup protection for their fields. They build bonfires at opposite corners and have a few guys at the other corners. They shoot at any silhouette that crosses.

>>72327856
Yeah, it's a coastal valley so it's not really surrounded by any large topography.

Also, yeah, palm trees are everywhere in The Valley. I know I was told why, but can't recall at the moment. Here's an interesting article on Valley palm trees. I, however are more fond of mesquite for reasons. They, however, don't fair to well in "northern" climates like in Alabama.

5.6 million decided to take the fine instead of participate in it

and that's ryancare, which will not pass in its current form

and there is speculation that it's only being put forward because it hurts paul ryan and will be used against him, which is great because paul ryan is a fucking faggot that needs the rope
