Elections have consequences.
Democrats Move to Abolish Death Penalty
The bill would eliminate capital punishment in Texas and require life imprisonment or life without parole for those convicted of capital felonies.

Life in prison is a death sentence to me.

Radical leftists destroying the country one state at a time.

It is and it's definitely a deterrent for people like us who follow the law and would not ever want to live in a cage. But I think people with extended or life sentences adapt, get three meals a day, have some form of workout stuff, showers, and some form of entertainment. I'd rather people who commit death penalty-worthy crimes be put down rather than get to live out their days.

I don't think it will stick.
Musk already got the new Governor to apologize too.

I never thought for one instant they would elect Talarico, but here we are.

Is Texas Blue?...I was born here and I sincerely and deeply hope so.

Right?

Why?

At the risk of repeating...I was born here...Every Right Wing person I have ever known was a Redneck imbecile.

Every single one?
What about the left wing people?

Move to California, you'll be surrounded by your own kind.

I don’t think so. Talarico’s race got a ton of publicity and it deserved it. But I think that was mostly because he was running against a really horrible Republican. Look up Paxton. The guy was a mess.
Most Texans still strike me as capitalists who are pro gun and want a smaller federal government.

In my life I have always been closed about my political opinions.(Being a native I know about the old KLOL bumper sticker situation.) So therefore I have never expressed myself openly. Yet still, rednecks have tended to be hostile to me. It follows, therefore, I don't have positive thoughts about right wing rednecks...

I know Paxton had a lot of baggage, but I didn't think it was enough for Texans to vote for a leftist weirdo. I was wrong. He didn't just win. It was a blowout, which means a lot of independents and Republicans had to have voted for Talarico.
Plus Abbott lost and he didn't have near the problems Paxton had.

I don't talk about politics in real life unless someone else brings it up. Then I turn on the facet. ;D
I know a number people who live or have lived in Texas. Never saw anything crazy from them. One of my good friends just relocated from Hawaii to Texas and he's a conservative. Good dude. Great family.
My concern for Texas is that it might become like California and other blue states that let the inmates run the asylum and start proposing stupid stuff. Like prohibiting minors from buying creatine. ::)

Is Texas blue? Looking like California 2.0 over there.

I know and work with plenty of folks from Texas who aren't liberal and aren't imbeciles.
