Texas Secession Underway: Now They Want Their Gold Back

Uncle Ben said:

I've seen that stupidity. Here in Texas local leaders do not hesitate to put the masses under water restrictions, some VERY severe and hard. It's got to be Cali. dumb ass politics to let this drought go on for so long before putting folks on water restrictions as they watch their lakes and wells dry up. Until recently with the wet El Nino event ALL cities in Texas were under mandatory water rationing.
I'm not talking for a few months. I'm talking for years, at least 8.

since a bill was passed into law (laying claim to the gold) there must've been something preventing, your government is just gonna waive it at the feds which may have a different view..the real question is which way will the supremes rule when texas doesn't get their way?

I'm unclear on the problem. If it's THEIR gold, why would it be a problem for Texas to store and safeguard their own property? It's a precious metal, not a government-issued currency.
