Let's hope and pray that lots of freedom loving people are escaping the communist liberal states and moving here to strengthen our hand.

There is an incredible building boom going on in Richmond/Rosenberg, TX . A friend who lives in the Riverstone area of Missouri City, TX (High end Mansions) is also having a healthy building growth. Maybe TEXAS is leading the way (LIBERALS take note, places like Detroit, Chicago, NYC... they are failing for a reason, but i guess LIBTARDS are blind to that.)

I don't mind them moving here, provided they leave their former states liberal attitudes behind. They learn to appreciate Texas culture and remember
never to say, "that's not how we did it back in _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ". If it was that great back in _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ , why 'd you leave ? No, it wasn't that
great. Learn to be Texas friendly, talk a little slower, try spicing up your food, remember that hunting, fishing and gun ownership are basic rights to which Texans are born. In short, love it or leave it.

We are in desperate need of a plan to maintain values. otherwise our success will be our own enemy

I moved here last year from Pennsylvania. I had enough with the liberals in the northeast controlling things. There are lots of gun-loving conservatives up there that I hope will move to friendlier places. I made sure to pick a red state and I pledge to do everything I can to keep it red!

The other day on the radio they did a short piece on Texas' increasing population.

From July 2011 to July 2012: 425,000 people moved to Texas.

Divide that by 365 and you get 1,164 people a day moving to Texas.

Texas population is now approximately 26,000,000.

I have mixed feelings about this. On the one hand it's nice to be in a place that's growing.
But as I watch large acreage continually being turned into the latest housing developments,
what used to be "rural" is now just another place to build the same old franchised businesses
to serve the new population.

My wife and I were married in 1969. Since then the population of Texas has more than doubled.

I liked it more back then.

:iagree:
A developer is wanting to turn the small community where I live into "Plano South". Hopefully we derail his plans, otherwise I'll be pulling up stakes and moving further out.
