“1. Saying that you insist that everyone follow the law is not “hardcore”.”
Telling SCOTUS to kiss your Texas ass is hard core.
“2. Stop saying “hardcore” to seem “with it” to young people.”
I’ve been hearing that saying since before the parents of some of those young people were born.
Texas has gay marriage and the governor is telling state employees to follow the First Amendment and the court. Gay people were getting married in Texas yesterday.
Louisiana and Mississippi just told the court and the feds that they were going to follow state constitutions. As far as I know, and according to the news, gays did not get married in Louisiana yesterday.
So, Texas made a bit of noise, then fell in line.
Louisiana stood up and said, “No!”
Saying one thing and doing another is not “hard core”. Talking the talk is easy.
Louisiana walks the walk. Results matter. Not yammering politicians blustering at press conferences, then business as usual.
