A woman and two children drowned in the Rio Grande on Friday while trying to enter the U.S. near a section of the southern border where Texas National Guard soldiers have prevented federal Border Patrol agents from processing and rescuing migrants.
Very much yes. And this time, let’s complete the work.
We should have reconstructed harder…
Conservatives rejoice at the misery, oppression and death they cause. This is who conservatives are.
Can we give Texas back to Mexico so they can learn a little bit about human rights?
as a mexican national the sentiment is bus them to NYC 🗽 Nothing would change
There is so much evil going on in this world you don’t even have time to process each act anymore. Because there is something else every few hours.
Yes. Just to be clear. It’s been the same since the beginning of humanity. TV, Internet, social media, etc… just puts it in easy burst of info.
Pro Life!
Conservatives only care about children before they are born
Why is the federal government waiting for access from a state like Texas? Their officials are monsters and should be steamrolled to save lives.
Because the federal government isn’t all that motivated to do anything about it. Republicans are evil and Democrats are apathetic.
So, these agents hear about an emergency situation at the park, but when they get there Texas state cops don’t want to let them enter, so the agents… Just give up and go home? Gosh, no wonder people in Congress are talking about more funding for securing the border, we apparently don’t even give our Border Patrol firearms if this is how easy it is to stop them.
Are you suggesting the Border Patrol get into a shooting match with the TX national guard? Both sides are armed. It deserves a court case, not a gun fight.
While a woman and two children drown? With all due respect, you can shove that court case right up Abbott’s ass.
Shut up. It sucks. But, risking an actual shoot out that could kill several people, possibly even collaterally damage, isn’t an acceptable alternative.
Imagine this is what people said before the revolution.
So you’re fine with people dying, as long as they’re migrants.
Violence is not the answer. Advocating for violence is even less of an answer.
I’m not advocating for violence. I’d prefer seeing the Texas National Guard stand down and the Border Patrol rescuing the drowning people.
Other folk have other opinions, apparently.
And nothing of value would be lost.

Let’s remember this when Texas’ grid needs federal help again.
Fuck red states. If people want to deny other people assistance in times of need, I say we do the same to them.
I get what you mean here, but I MUST point out that many people who live in red states don’t believe in the same ideology, or can’t get out.
If there were a way to selectively punish the policy makers, and those that support it, I’m game. But this sounds like the same indiscriminate punishment rhetoric that Israel is using. (Please don’t take offense, I know it’s not how you meant it, just pointing it out)
Selectively punish policy makers? Um voting. That seems to not be a popular idea though.
It’s not terribly effective due to the gerrymandering of the voting districts, everyone that is in office is still so because they gerrymander the district to people who vote along party lines, whether or not they know what they’re doing.
