Democratic members of the Texas Legislature reportedly assaulted and threatened a Republican colleague over his call to immigration authorities, prompting the GOP lawmaker to say he’d defend himself with deadly force if the Democrats followed through on their threats.

Rep. Matt Rinaldi, Irving Republican, said the altercation began when he called Immigration and Customs Enforcement in response to repeated disruptions of the day’s proceedings by illegal-immigrant demonstrators over a bill targeting sanctuary cities........

I speak Spanish, although as a second language. My IQ tested at 135.

Care to revise your remark?

“....Allowing this flagrant flouting of our laws cannot continue.”

Agree 100%. The declaration you are breaking the law and will continue to do so aggravates the situation. Tell THAT to the Judge and see how it works!

The first front in this war is Texas. The rats and their corrupt allies south of the border need to import as many dregs as it takes to turn the state blue. I predict more of this, and it will get ugly.

“Rep. Justin Rodriguez, D-San Antonio, who didn’t witness the initial altercation, said he later heard Rinaldi say, “I’ll put a bullet in your head,” to the Democrat he alleged was menacing.
“He’s a broken person, and I hope his community back home realizes that,” Rodriguez said later during a news conference.”

Here’s what’s reported

Not any statement about Rodriguez s actions against illegals which is zero. The law abiding rep who is threatened is the wrong one in this article he’s not interviews but this guy Rodriguez we hear his side.

Ringgit now on a holiday weekend Monday night you go into any supermarket in San Antonio and Spanish is the spoken language. The city has been invaded. Rodriguez knows that.

Memorial Day? A VA ID card at the cash register there means nothing in comparison to an EBT card at this moment. In a town full of military bases.

We are done with it. Greg Abbott is done with it. Good.

But there will be a fight. The media side with illegals even the wash times I guess

Hmmm.... I speak English, Spanish and Russian. Exactly what kind of intelligence are you referring to? (I know, bad grammar.)

Watched the video and I couldn’t hear what was being said. Threatening someone with bodily harm is a crime if you’re capable of it.

DemocRats are more interested in protecting illegal aliens and terrorist-supporting Muslims than the citizens who elected them.

Democrats have a history of attacking people who fight for the freedom of others. Preston Brooks, a Demon Rat in Congress, tried to cane Charles Sumner to death.

Ramon Romero and Poncho Nevarez, go ahead and get it started. All a lot of people need is just an excuse. VERY poor thinking on your part to threaten to beat up a fellow legislator. Talk about losing our form of government. You’d make it happen in a flash with that.

That’s for sure. People ignore No Borders Dubya’s attempt to give amnesty to a few million of Mexico’s citizens illegally living in the USA.

Reward lawbreaking?

Sure, as long as they are foreign nationals that you prefer to Americans.

“Jobs Americans Won’t Do” and all the rest of that Bushcrap.

Thank God his idiot brother Jeb didn’t get the nomination.

I like his attitude. It's about time someone got some stones.

Poncho is from first-name Alfonso. Pancho Villa’s first name was Francisco.

Amen. Indeed, I am for even stricter action, I am all for reciprocal illegal immigration policies myself, let’s do what Mexico does to someone who
“trespasses” on their territory.

Real name was Jose Doroteo Arango Arambula. "Doroteo" is our "Dorothy". Sometimes you have to fight to be a man. lol
