      Interesting question if Luigi had just raped that CEO would he get more time or less? Edit - “allegedly”

    “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.

    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?

    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.

    An elected official boasting of their inability to actually govern is the most Republican thing I can think of.

    I searched for the billboards and just yikes.

    Yeah you in can try to spin in whatever way you want, but it definitely comes off like America is full of rapists.

    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 🤬

    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.

    Holy shit, I didn’t expect them to have literally said that shit. I expect nothing of republicans or Texas, but I’m still baffled.

    For those who want to see them…

    a government official advertising rape to the less fortunate? these people saying such ludicrous things need to be put on a noose.
