We all know that Texans can be a proud bunch. With their substantial size and unique history, natives of the great state of Texas have also advocated the idea that they can take care of business on their own. Even dating back to the days when the lone star republic figured itd be better off if it seceded from the rest of the union, it was apparent that these folks saw themselves a bit differently.
