He’s right. You got to worry about the pigs, especially the Texas pigs, they’re pretty dirty. Florida is kind of dirty too, and Arizona and California. In fact, all of the southern states have tons of cops who are dirty as hell and probably some of them would be up for that kind of horrible action.

Every time you think Greg Abbott can’t be any more of a disgusting and gleefully cruel monster, the little piss-baby proves you wrong 🤬

“They give potential illegal immigrants thinking of leaving their home country — and those already on the way — a realistic picture of what will happen to them on their journey or if they illegally cross into Texas,” Abbott said.

A lot of them are leaving their home country, you absolute waste of oxygen, because they were going to die there if they didn’t.

I think the signs are referring to the “coyotes” who guide Mexican immigrants across the border for a fee. Often they sexually assault their clients, estimated by nonprofits to be about 60%.

It doesn’t make a lot of sense for Texas to place the signs, though, but it’s provacative and theatrical which the GOP loves.

Wait … I thought these were the same guys that said that it was immigrants that were rapists … are they admitting that the rapists were in Texas the whole time?

The billboards aren’t saying Americans will rape them, but the smugglers smuggling people into the country, which does have a high incidence of happening.

I guess the rapists are going to rape the other rapists and we’ll see who wins?

Whoever or whatever it is … all I can think of is that Texas is a state full of rapists … immigrant, state born, male, female, rich, poor, government, non-aligned, Christian, non-religious … all of them rapists

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That’s all the rules!
