As a Texan, no, I don’t want to secede….

[–] Landmammals@lemmy.world 11 points 9 months ago (2 children)

You guys could have had Beto.

[–] Grobmobularb@lemmy.world 12 points 9 months ago

I voted for Beto…

If he just didn't say he would come for thier guns....

There are some things you don't say in Texas. That's one of them.

[–] Landmammals@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago

Yep

Given the choice between a football field filled with child sized coffins, and an abusive psychopath being denied immediate access to a firearm due to a red flag law, Texans will be upset that there are coffins all over the football field.

Exactly. But so did Drumpf, but it’s ok because he said it.

Pretty sure your gov does. Maybe not vote him in again? I dunno, just a thought.

[–] Grobmobularb@lemmy.world 9 points 9 months ago

I voted for Beto

Ok, i did, but 55% didn't, do the rest of the need to suffer now?

Just ask the women forced to give birth even at the cost of their own lives in shit hole states like LA, TX etc

Or is he just pandering to those folks who think they're serious about this, while fully knowing there's no way it could work?

[–] BoxerDevil@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Might want to consider moving then

[–] pearsaltchocolatebar@discuss.online 2 points 9 months ago (2 children)

That's how you make things a lot worse. In fact, more democrats are needed in Texas to overwhelm the rural vote, not less.

[–] BoxerDevil@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

We may be past that point.

I live in Missouri. I moved here when it was a swing state. I would leave if I could due to how frightening the political situation is.
