More than 30 people froze to death in TEXAS. That's something that can only be accomplished by commies. Actually, I think that's something that can only happen when you have affluent, lazy people with absolutely ZERO survival skills living in suburban settings.“

Zero survival skills? In Texas? There were over a million people without power for days in single digit temperatures in an area that sees cold temperatures in that range only a few times in a century. Had a disaster of this magnitude happened in a blue state utopia thousands would have died.

In my professional circles, the people in Texas who were: (1) least prepared for the cold snap, and (2) complaining the loudest about the power failures -- were almost universally those who had relocated to a major urban area of Texas in the last ten years from another urban area in a "blue" state. And many of these people are also first or second generation Americans from immigrant families, too.

I suspect real Texans generally held up well under those difficult circumstances. I also know that real Texans are disappearing among the hordes of ill-prepared new arrivals from other states -- and from Asia and Latin America.
