    Back during my time at the University of Texas at Austin, the Young Conservatives of Texas would host “Immigrant Roundup”. Members would dress in big orange “Illegal Migrant” shirts and students would be encouraged to chase them around campus with butterfly nets.

    This was considered perfectly fine and good by university administrators. But the LGBTQ club had to meet off campus, because it was immoral and in violation of state laws forbidding sodomy.

      Texas is a shithole state with less freedoms than I have as a Californian.

      The women in my life have rights that Texan women don’t.

      I can walk down the street right now and buy weed from the weed store. Texans can’t.

      Texans are a bunch of cucks that let their legislators shit on them.

        When you’re getting your head caved in by the cops, the LAPD doesn’t feel much freer than the thugs running Austin.

        I can walk down the street right now and buy weed from the weed store. Texans can’t.

        Most major Texas cities have fully given up on marijuana prosecution as a waste of time and resources. Meanwhile, California’s the state with ICE agents crawling up everyone’s assholes, while your governor does dick all to stop it. Quixotically safer to be undocumented in San Antonio than San Bernadino, simply because your state is on the President’s shit list.

        Texans are a bunch of cucks that let their legislators shit on them.

        Californias are a bunch of cucks that let their legislators shit on them, then insists the shit doesn’t stink.

        Dianne Feinstein was more responsible for the appointment of Amy Comey Barret than Ted Cruz, ffs. Your state is as big of a fascist shithole as anywhere in the country. You just cover yourself in Patchouli and dose yourselves in Kambucha, then pretend you don’t use slave labor to keep your wildfires in check.
