Abbott Now Going to Increase Restrictions?

[EZ-E]

Key words there Oldag. "Let" and "nothing". are the what is going on. Right now, I think, (and I hope.) come November maybe things will turn around for the better. I hope voting is makes things turn around.

But they can't take those rights away. We can allow them to take them away. All it takes, is one person to take the stand against the tyranny, and to say, enough, is enough. This is my line in the sand. These are my rights, and you can't take them.

In the great words of one of our members, Hoji, we need to get mad, and stay mad.

Until we're all in the streets protesting like ANTIFA & BLM they will take & take from We the people.

We need a PATRIOTS UNITE movement against this crap... but you know the media would spin it as CRAZY RIGHT WING GUN TOTTING RACIST EXTREMIST.
I wouldn't care what the media calls me... they have already labeled me & my brethren. I keep hearing talk radio people talk like Trump is the only one that can do anything. We have forgotten that the politicians work for us & have the mentality.... ohhh thats the government... what can you do.

Im sick of all the bitchn & no doing.
YOU MAD YET!!!!!

There are no more Republicans or Democraps... they are all either crooks or communists. Either your a Patriot for America or against it.

but Abbott's MO has been to deny that he is going to do something on a daily basis and then issue a directive at the last minute. I don't believe for a minute he is not considering another shutdown;

Exactly what I thought when I read that article.

Breathe.
Sigh.
Start contacting your local GOP offices and incumbents. Describe to them a better path.

FIFY

Vaquero is absolutely correct.

Sometimes, we may tend to forget just how great we have in this country. Yeah, we all bitch or moan about the freeloaders and the "protesters" and other things. But we have it pretty danged good here.

On another forum, we had a friend that was a member there, living in another country, way south of our border. We haven't heard from him in over a year and a half now. Last time one of the other members spoke to him he was trying to immigrate, with his family, to Canada, then hopefully later to the United States. Every time he posted on the forum, or talked on the phone he was being monitored by the government. I don't doubt even more so, since it was gun forum.

Poor in this country, in many ways is an abstract word, and really doesn't mean diddly squat. Even poor people in this country have cell phones, food, flat screen TV's and everything else. Go into some other countries, and discover what poor really means.

Think about the 2nd Amendment, and your gun rights. Or your right to vote. In some countries, if they even allow you to own a gun, they can and will decide what guns and ammo you are allowed have. It truly is a privilege. People bitch about overly restrictive states, like California, or New York with their silly gun restrictions. Yeah, that is true, but those residents still have the option of pulling up stakes and moving to another state with less restrictive gun laws. Some other countries, they don't have that option. In some countries, they do have "free" elections, but you are "told" who you are going to vote for so they can the "appearance" of being a democracy. Voting other than how your are told, could get you a bullet in the head and shallow grave.

Every day, I stand out on my front porch, and I look up that American flag that flies on my flag pole, I say a silent prayer that I'm glad to be an American, because so many other people have it so much worse than I do in other countries.Many of my ancestors were immigrants to this country a 100 years ago, and even 150 years ago.

This country isn't perfect, warts and all, but this is MY country. So much fo what I'm seeing in the news and to hear how some of these people talking the way they do, makes me very angry! It pisses me off to see people trying to destroy our country, to tear it down, to cancel our culture and to rewrite our history. I see good people being persecuted, (and I meant persecuted, not prosecuted.) for defending themselves, and their homes against these people, who want to destroy or way of life, and them taking a stand against that, and being made out to be in the wrong for doing so. And prosecutors, and local government siding with the thugs, the criminals, the "protesters" to condemn their rights to defend themselves.

In some ways, maybe we do need to have civil war, and wipe out the BLM and ANTIFA, and anyone else that supports their causes and promotes them, or gives them money. Wipe out those that that support defunding or eliminating our police agencies, and our LE officers. Maybe it's getting close to time to take a hard stand against those that oppose this great country. My hope is, it doesn't come that, but come this November, and things go from bad to worse, we may need to rethink that. Right now, my hope is that Trump wins, and starts putting us back on the path to making this country great again just like he started doing in 2017.

Okay, rant off!

One trip to a leper colony convinced me.

We shouldn’t protest. We should designate a week (because we all work), take that week off, March into DC, hang 95% of them, and declare CNN, et al, a terrorist organization, declare all commies will now have free Pinochet rides, and fix what needs fixing. You want welfare? Pick up 10 lbs of roadside litter for $10. Or starve. I do not care any more.

 

[Mohawk600]

The govt won't declare BLAM or ANTIFAIL terrorist movements and sure as hell won't reign them in. Just see what would happen if a bunch of right leaning gun toters tried to take matters into their own hands.........artillery would fly.

Unless I'm mistaken, didn't Trump declare ANTIFA an domestic terrorist organization a couple of weeks ago?

I beleive you are correct, that’s why the DOJ are rounding them up

 

[kbaxter60]

A trip to Los Angeles County does too.

Try Portland or Seattle.
They are LOST. Spiritually, politically, and (probably) geographically, too.

IIRC, I think it was earlier this week, maybe Monday or Tuesday, they arrested seven known members of ANTIFA on federal felony charges, and two members of the BLM, who also happened to be lawyers on felony charges.

I saw it on YouTube and was showing it to the wife the other day. I'll go back and see if I can find the video and then link it to this thread.

ETA: July 8th was when this video was first uploaded.

His highness will present a State of the State tonight as a prelude to beginning a Prez run in 2024. One of the big media places is running it on broadcast TV, immediately followed by a D party rebuttal and vision for Texas.

Gov. Greg Abbott unveils legislative priorities, including police funding, "election integrity," expanding broadband access and more

Gov. Greg Abbott designated five emergency items, which are matters the Legislature can vote on within the first 60 days of the session that began Jan. 12.

LOL!! Abbott for president 2024? LOL! After the last three punchbowl dwellers who have left Texas for the Whitehouse, he would fit in with them.

I don’t think his campaign would have the legs to go the distance.

The Governor is a weak office in Texas, but he is certainly the power trip he gets with his emergency powers.

Yeah we need to make sure that gets limited this session.
