Only saw this in my news feed now, because it didn't appear in my notifications. What is the meaning of the question? If read literally, my answer would be: Texas.
Kristin and I discussed this very topic. That phrase is perfect. One more word, and it's too much, one less, and it's not correct. It's the perfect phrase!
You mentioned it in a comment thread. My grandfather was a mercenary from 1958-1968 who carried out covert operations in the waters around Cuba, so when you talked about contemporary privateering I was naturally interested in learning more.
