It’s been said that everything is bigger in Texas, including SUVs, wide, open spaces, and huge intrusions into people’s personal lives (hello, abortion restrictions and bathroom bill?). Well, Prick 8.0—oops, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott—just managed to make something else even bigger: his own cruelty. From Time magazine:
time.com/…
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott joked about shooting reporters while visiting a gun range and carrying a target sheet with bullet holes in it.
As he was holding the bullet-ridden target, Abbott allegedly said, "I'm gonna carry this around in case I see any reporters”. . .
Texas used to be a nice state. We voted for Jimmy Carter in 1976 (yes, the last time my state voted for a Democrat), Roe vs. Wade originated from there, and we shed tears when Kennedy was assassinated. Now, however, I’m living in a state with mean-spirited, cruel voters who continue to elect mean-spirited, cruel assholes like Abbott and Rick Perry—or Prick 6.0. That’s not all of us, thank God, but, sadly still, a large number of them. Hell, they’d vote for a slug if it had an “R” next to its name.
Welcome to Texas, people—the Cruel, Gun-slinging, Buttinski State.
