I just saw a news story about an area of northwest Austin that just voted to secede from Austin. Add to that the Buckhead area of Atlanta that is breaking away and the St. George section of Bator Rouge that just won court rulings allowing them to secede; I wonder how many more poorly run Democrat cities are going to see sections break away?

In Houston in 1996 an area called Kingwood was annexed. The residents there were strongly against this move but didn't have much choice. Like most expansionist cities Houston took them over, gouged them with taxes and provided far worse services than the township had as an unincorporated part of the county.

I think it is great that citizens are standing up to corrupt city governments and exercising their right of free association, including the right not to be forcibly associated with craphole cities.
