Wow, I never thought I'd see a Texas themed restaurant in China.

I hope they give him a fair deal, so he can move his restaurant elsewhere.

If I remember my history, didn't the Texans get their butts kicked at the Alamo? :03:

Soundly. It was Sam Houston who later defeated Santa Ana after hearing of the fall of The Alamo.

While I feel for him. He's getting a crappy deal.

But it isn't worth dieing for.

Yeah, but we fought to the last man. :shucks:

"remember the Alamo" became the battle cry of Texan Independence.

as ETR3(SS) pointed out, Sam Houston and his boys whooped the Mexican Army wholesale after a series of engagements and pursuits which spanned most of the entire state.

but dont feel bad for the Mexicans... we Texans are pissing on the memory of the Alamo and are giving it all back to the Mexicans one piece at a time :nope:

You are quite correct, my statement was written in the spirit of 'give em a good fight, never give in, just like the Texans did at the Alamo God Bless em' :salute:
