o-na [289]3 years ago

It was repealed because it was hugely unpopular, totally ineffective and a large factor in increasing the power of the Mafia in the USA.

It was passed in the first place because of misguided nonsense paraded by well-meaning moralistic busybodies.

<span>Sort of like the war on the (rest of) drugs .... except many of those are still illegal and they were not part of a constitutional amendment.</span>

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

D. NONE of these answers are correct

Explanation:

Austin wrote to the Texans and asked them to shelve plans for revolution

He made this speech to the Texans when he came back from prison,

“The revolution in Mexico is drawing to a close. The object is to change the form of government, destroy the federal constitution of 1824, and establish a central or consolidated government. The states are to be converted into provinces. Whether the people of Texas ought or ought not to agree to this change, and relinquish all or part of their constitutional and vested rights under the constitution of 1824, is a question of the most vital importance; one that calls for the deliberate consideration of the people”[5]
