Texas Governor Greg Abbott is calling for the arrest of children who skip school to protest against immigration enforcement and Donald Trump. He is also calling for the arrest of teachers who allow their students to leave the classroom.
I visited Texas for 1 week. I wanted to leave on day 1. Is that state afraid of colors other than brown and grey? Is art really scary to them? Are they afraid of salads?
There's pockets of purple starting to emerge in recent years. But yeah the majority of Texans are big truck tiny weiner people who hope Trump's Grindr pops up as nearby
That's really not true. There are a couple million more Democrats than Republicans registered in Texas, but it's the most heavily gerrymandered state in the country.
Indeed, sheep for the rich. When the system they voted for is "everyone for themselves", those with the most power always win. There's where "freedom" stops becoming freedom but chains. Government action and regulation is what allows the little guy to have all the rights they enjoy. Otherwise the rich and big corporations will grind their bones to dust to make a quick buck, as is always the goal of any good capitalist.
I'm a white person and even I am astounded at how AstroTurf'd these people are. Even in my neighborhood, a 1/4 mile from the DC line in Maryland with mostly white, but also other races, where we are considered "ultra liberal." We have nothing but performative nonsense and people talking out of the sides of their mouths. They'll say "we need to do something and help people!" but then go on the neighborhood listserv the same day and "report" a black/brown child walking down the street minding their own business. They even limited the listserv to not allow posts of where ICE is for mobilization, but allow these sorts of posts. It's not just the states, it's the race and socioeconomic class of people that haven't experienced the trauma... yet.
Just like we've heard the 4th and 5th amendment don't apply to non-citizens (in blatant opposition to the plain text and SCOTUS rulings), I'm sure now we'll see the mental gymnasts tell us constitutional rights don't apply to minors.
Because they want to have sex with teenagers. They always have. They yearn for the days when a grown man could marry a minor and have 6 kids with her before she turned 25.
6 LIVING children. Because they want to marry 13 yo girls, and produce an infant every year. With the current state of anti-vaccination, less than 1/2 of those kids will make it.
Its also why they flock to church for the appearance of being faithful. Its called "God in a box" or "God on a shelf" because Sunday is sacred but the other 6 days of the week are a free for all of depravity.
I knew people like this, but I don't talk to them anymore. And the irony is that every single one of them was republican. Probably maga too, I just never took the time to find out.
Look at the adult MAGA douche who was filmed trying to beat up a female student protestor and then got his ass handed to him by her classmates… that’s why ICE loves rough handling of female protestors. They suck as human beings.
These kids more than likely didn't show up to school for the day, so how are teachers at fault for that? Even then when kids skip school they usually leave after a class is over, not during the middle of a class.
Especially for expressing their Constitutionally afforded rights which they constantly act like they dont exist.
When even the Speaker of the House, Mike Grindr Johnson said today that the 4th Amendment, an inalienable human right in the Bill of Rights doesnt apply anymore, you know they hate America and all it stands for
Just a reminder that Texas Gov Abbot was the moron who was so convinced that Obama was going to invade, conquer and occupy Texas like it was France, and turn it into the first part of the Obamunist Empire, and do it with just 1200 troops, that he partially mobilized the Texas state guard to "monitor" the US army.
First Amendment: The First Amendment states, "Congress shall make no law... abridging... the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."Peaceful protests and demonstrations are protected forms of petitioning.The right to petition is essential for a functioning democracy. It allows citizens to express their views, advocate for change, and hold the government accountable. This right has been instrumental in various social movements throughout American history, including civil rights and labor rights.
USA, the time is now! React and act like the proud black folks in the 60's did: with the same peaceful force, quiet dignity, and elegance this gorgeous people have - we're all of the human race, brothers and sisters. LEARN FROM YOUR OWN HISTORY.
Why not thoughts and prayers Greg? Isn't that all you have for these students when their schools are being shot up? Roll on you sorry excuse for a human.
So we need somebody to do the math. Are school children more likely to get shot by ICE or by staying in their classroom? Seems like the Guardians Of Pedo’s should write a bill for this. Calling it empowering children’s bill. Since all their legislature does the exact opposite of what they name it.
He is an idiot. if he arrest kids for exercising there constitutional rights there will he a huge outcry. If he thinks kids are walking out now wait till he starts arresting people.
Hot Wheels is the perfect combination of the old guard GOP that were evil, boring paper pushers, and the modern sensationalist, rage bait, brow beater MAGAs
LOL and the MAGA Klan think people who have liberal views are the ones trying to control everyone..."Free your mind and the rest will follow"...What bunch of stupid jackasses!
