I am on the fence between a realistic concern for the people of his State / grandstanding in an effort to increase his chance in the fall election. Maybe a combination of both. I really don't have a problem with it either. 1 Link to comment
knapplc Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 Perhaps it's time to revisit the need for the 2nd Amendment. 4 1 Link to comment

Abbott is directly part of the cause here. On Friday he will prove that even more. Beto showing that he's seriously different than Abbott, is a good thing. 2 Link to comment

It’s reality though. Might as well embrace it. And I’m pretty sure it’s happening anywhere in the world where social media exists. Link to comment

That may change the way we might have voted on an issue or what candidate we might vote for. Thus, indirectly we have influence on legislation that gets passed. 1 Link to comment
