Texas courts have ruled that because legally owned firearms represent “a threat of physical violence” to police, officers may ignore the 4th Amendment rights of Texas residents by treating ALL legally issued warrants as “No Knock” warrants, even if the issuing judge has made it clear that officers “…must knock on the door and announce their identity and purpose before attempting a forcible entry.”
Who said that Texas doesn't have a lot of crazies? Moscow on the Colorado is full of them. Governor Good Hair is a scoundrel. Many Judges are worse. Only Kaufman seemed to have an answer for it. BTW, we've heard nothing else from that lately.

DeleteSeems the cities are bad everywhere.
Rick Perry is going to keep inviting Kalifornians and Yankees to Texas
ReplyDeleteuntil the place is converted to a solid blue bastion of liberal idiots.
I have long said in less than 5 years Texas will be a copy of California. Simply another exampe of liberal cancer spreading and destroying another state.

The world has been flipped unside down since my youth. Appalling.

ReplyDeleteAfter living there, and reassessing myopic ideological beliefs, I concluded:
Texas would be strangled by the United States if it seceded now or in a decade. It's actually not in a good position to be independent in spite of its energy resources, because its population is too centralized in four large metroplexes and would be tossed into turmoil. Not much would change in 2027 and beyond as the demographic changes turn it into another California and thus majority left-wing.
Corporate fraud is endemic as utilities and big businesses overbill and the political system is profoundly politicized and corrupt much as California and New York are. The only difference is Texas favors scant regulation and is a polluter's haven.
Live there long enough and you will not be nostalgic for living there long-term, nor be apt to have delusions about it being an economic powerhouse that can go at it alone. It does not have a strong middle class. The only reason it has its lauded economic vitality is plentiful cheap labor. An independent Texas would not be very republican, rather dictatorial in manner of El Salvador if it stayed right-wing.
