“Ah gots ts be reddy for anyting…”

Texanistan (the Republic of Y’all Qaeda) — where you can’t save children’s lives because requiring them to wear a mask (or get a vaccine if they are eligible) would be too traumatic, but active shooter drills and the terrorism of an epidemic of real school mass shootings isn’t.

And they have the NERVE to call themselves pro-life?

The guy on the right can start by learning to tie his shoes.

The statistics are clear: More people are killed by their own weapons than ever use them to effectively protect themselves or others (suicides are a significant fraction of that, by the way). The fantasy that “I’m just as good as anybody else with a gun” is no different from any other wish-fulfillment dream. Only having some innate ability AND working to train and keep in training makes you good. And most of us have better things to do with our time, right?

That’s right…any idiot can carry a gun in texass!

In Texas, if you die you’re dead

It’s sick as hell.

On the Texass flag there’s only one star. That’s a pretty accurate review, ain’t it?

There are plenty of shooting ranges though. The gun lovers can train to shoot accurately. They don’t want to miss any little kid scurrying around the school benches. They take ‘no child left behind’ to a whole new level.

If shootings aren’t enough there’s always COVID to take care of the rest.

Fact Check. This is wrong. It is legal (unfortunately in my opinion) to carry concealed or open in most places in Texas but Only if you have a License To Carry (LTC). It used to be called a CHL (Concealed Handgun License) until the recent change to include open carry. Many of us with a CHL opposed the change but were overruled. I have had a license for many years, and it was Not easy to get. There was, and from what I can tell still is, an intense class with a somewhat difficult exam at the end, followed by in person safety drills and a proficiency test at a range. The license must be renewed every few years, and on more than one occasion I saw people flunk the test or be completely disqualified for doing something less than totally safe on the range. You also must pass a background check equivalent to those for a police officer. Are the requirements stringent enough? Probably not, I saw one person pass when it was obvious to all the students and the instructor that he had no business carrying (not a bad person, just borderline stupid). Does it make the person competent in a tense situation? No. A lot more training and practice are needed, at the very least. But a license Is required and not just any Yahoo can get one.

And hair stylists must be certified, but any fool can carry a gun and a badge, and drive a squad car.

Abbott, Patrick and Paxton (TX Gov, Lt Gov and Atty Gen) are all up for re-election in 2022, with great big targets on their sorry derrieres. Should be an ‘interesting’ campaign period.

Let’s stop calling them “guns” and start referring to them as “lifetakers.” Than we can talk about the “all life is precious” mantra of the “pro-life” advocates.

What is the secret name of the Texas legislature? Taliban!

Just another reason that I’m glad that I have absolutely no reason to ever go to Texass again!

The shooter has more rights than the shootee.

Cops are the hired guns of the ruling class. The working class will disarm them and their bosses first before we disarm ourselves. You betchum, Red Rider.

But at least Texas is protecting its school kids from dangerous books!

Nice guns. Sorry about your you know where this is going…

Are there fewer car-jackings in Texas? Are there fewer muggings? Are there fewer home invasions?

actually, here in texas, for a concealed carry license, you have to take a class. You also have to show that you have enough skill to aim correctly. Also have to demonstrate that you understand basic gun safety.

And there are no background checks to see if someone is stable mentally. You have to preserve that second amendment right to kill if you want to. Texas is pro fetus to secure the votes of evangelicals. In actuality they are pro war, pro death penalty and there god is Donald Trump. Me, I’m a native Texan and the state lost it’s f*cking mind when it rejected Ann Richards and crowned war criminal and moron GWB as governor. It’s “my body, my right” when it comes to vaccines and masks, but “your body, my right” when it comes to ignorant old white men who hate women, especially black and brown women.

Elon Musk has lost his mind moving Tesla to Texas, a heavily deregulated state that frequently poisons it’s residents, whether they know it or not. I wouldn’t buy a car made there, no matter how much the CEO tells me to trust him.

Have been to Texas twice. Once for basic training and tech school in the Air Force. Once to visit my brother when he was stationed in Texas. I have no reason, nor desire to ever go to that backwards state ever again.

Or how to prevent unwanted pregnancies (sex ed and wide access to birth control).

Liberalism is a disease! As Davy Crockett said when leaving to support the brave men at the Alamo – ‘I am going to Texas, the rest of may go to hell.’ Stay OUT of Texas – we don’t want you filthy people here (filthy defined as “idiots that vote Demoncrat”!)

It appears to be a working strategy. In the recent school shooting at the Yes Prep Charter School, the shooter only succeeded in wounding the Principle after he had warned staffers to get the children to safety, as compared to Sandy Hook where the shooter had time to roam around the school an kill 23 people.

“Y’all Queda”. I dig.

Back to the lawlessness …..it’s easier for the lame and stupid….
