Wish Abbott would get his mind more out of the bathroom and more on the border.

So you're fine with female students having to share a bathroom and shower with a young man?

Wish Abbott would get his mind more out of the bathroom and more on the border.
You do realize this is about Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick's statement and not Greg Abbott, don't you?

Aaaaaanyway...more directly to your complaint...
Border Protection Bill signed by Governor Greg Abbott Jun 10, 2015
Governor Greg Abbott is showing how serious he is about safety and security. He proved that by signing an 800-million dollar Border Protection Bill into law.
The bill will speed up the hiring process of 250 more state troopers, pay for cameras, and a spy plane to patrol the 12-hundred mile Texas-Mexico Boarder.

What else do you want?

Another clue for you...since you don't seem to have one...
Governor Abbott Takes Action To Combat Illegal Border Crossings“Texas will not sit idle in the face of this challenge,” Governor Abbott added. “We will not be victimized as a state by a federal government’s apathetic response to border security.”

There’s no need to be rude.

And NO, I don’t approve of men using women’s restrooms.
I just happen to think securing our border is of the most vital and the most urgent of importance.
Muslim jihadists have been caught coming over the border, along with the usual flood of Mexican criminals.
There’s several Jihadist’s camps just over the border from El Paso, Tx.

La Raza has plans to retake much of the American Southwest, and have already all but taken back Texas while Perry did nothing but make with the BS about what he was going to do.
The heroes of the Alamo must be spinning in their graves- that their sacrifices to free Texas from Mexico was all in vain.

All this re; Abbott was in 2015. What’s changed?
Criminal invaders flooding over the border is worse than ever.

You can be snide about others but I can't be rude to you?

So you like instant pudding. Got ya.

You still have no clue.
Our border issue has been an issue for decades, not just months.

Hang in the Texans!

Genesis 2

18 Then the LORD God said, “It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper fit for him.”
19 So out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field and every bird of the air, and brought them to the man to see what he would call them; and whatever the man called every living creature, that was its name. 20 The man gave names to all cattle, and to the birds of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for the man there was not found a helper fit for him.
21 So the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and while he slept took one of his ribs and closed up its place with flesh;
22 and the rib which the LORD God had taken from the man he made into a woman and brought her to the man.
23 Then the man said, “This at last is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.”
24 Therefore a man leaves his father and his mother and cleaves to his wife, and they become one flesh.
25 And the man and his wife were both naked, and were not ashamed.

‘You can be snide about others but I can’t be rude to you?’
I try to abide by the rules and not to viciously attack or name call no matter how ugly someone gets. To do otherwise, we are no better than Democrat Underground.
My ‘snide’ remarks were directed toward our governors, not at any fellow FReepers.

Instant? ASAP and cut the BS.

You just agreed with my point. It’s been an issue for decades, and we’ve gotten nothing done to seal our border but BS from Rick La Raza Perry in the 14 years he was governor.
(oh, I take that back. Perry’s signing into law, the bill authorizing in-state tuition for the children of illegal immigrants, served as a magnet to bring even more illegal immigrants, including families, to Texas.

You might want to take a look at what Breibart had to say about Perry:

More extortion than blackmail.....”Nice school ya got there - too bad if something were to happen to it”.

All Trump has to do now is say at his next rally - “My DOJ will immediately repeal this ridiculous edict. My administration will never hold Americans hostage to force an ideology down their throats”. Election would be in the bag. Every Republican running should hammer this one home.

If this isn’t reason enough to secede then nothing is.

Texas strong!

Oh, let's not stop at Perry and go all the way back to Bush because he didn't solve the problem either!

...not to viciously attack or name call...

I did neither. I simply said you were being snide.

You just agreed with my point.
No, I didn't. Your 'point' was he was doing nothing when he has done at least as much as his predecessors.

_______________

He and his predecessors have done nothing. That’s why we’re being overrun with criminal invaders- Mexican/South American/muslim jihadists
