To: a fool in paradise
failing by a margin of 61-percent to 39-percent...

I'm just surprised that a bill like that is even on a ballot in TX, and even more surprised that it's getting as many votes as it appears to be. Am I accusing the mayor's toadies of messing around with the ballots? You betcha I am.

If 30-40 years ago anyone in TX had as much as even suggested anything like what the mayor wants, much less put it up to a vote, whoever made the suggestion would have been bled out, gutted, and skinned like a year-old steer. My Dad's folks were born and raised in Bexar county and some still live there, so I know whereof I speak.

The crybaby libs are proclaiming that this city is populated by hateful bigots.

This same city 3 times elected an openly lesbian mayor who proclaimed that she would NOT use the powers of the office to advance the homosexual agenda.

She just got slapped down.

Texas has a bunch of sanctuary cities - Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, Austin. Ten years ago it wouldn’t have made it to the ballot. Glad I moved to the suburbs.
