Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has told a right-wing radio host that there’s only one tool the state isn’t using to stop migrants from crossing the border into Texas: gun violence, because it would prompt a response from the pesky federal government.
“The only thing that we are not doing is we’re not shooting people who come across the border—because, of course, the Biden administration would charge us with murder,” the Republican governor told former NRA spokesperson Dana Loesch on her radio show last week.
Texas does not represent the whole country.
Edit: Downvoted by people who have never been to the States.
Texas, Florida, Kentucky, Alabama. I’m sure there’s more awful US states.
Tennessee, Oklahoma, Utah, Arizona, South Carolina, North Carolina, West Virginia, North Dakota, South Dakota. 13 states out of 50.
All of those (some more than others) have large blue pockets of sane people and the maggats are in the outskirts. The only reason the maggats have control is thanks to gerry mandering and scaring the more gullible.
Also get NC off that list. It’s a bright purple state. Anyone who thinks that the NC is the same as Texas or even Tennessee has never been to Asheville, Charlotte, Greensboro, Raleigh, Durham, etc. I say this is a born and ashamed Floridian but have been in NC for awhile now.
You’d think some of these red states would secede by now.
It’s forbidden for them to leave rhe Union. Good luck to them trying to do it a second time.
Have an upvote. To expand on this, all of Texas doesn’t represent Texas or the USA. There is a non zero chance of Texas flipping blue in the next decade or so.
It’s really fun to be on the Internet and watch disconnected twats talk down to Americans about the problems we’ve been dreading for decades.
Ye, I’ve noticed the casual erosion of decency in my country like a sinkhole spreading from the south. It’s hard to miss and harder to fix.
