I'm pretty sure almost all "constitutional carry" people have some sort of disqualifying thing in their past and should to a man not be allowed to own weapons at all. But I suppose that's why it's kinda fringe even among gun weirds.

Starting to think communism might not win

quote:

The demands read: “1. that you make a public acknowledgment and apology for the fact that you [Enoch] worked with a federal informant, 2. we also demand that you have members of PSL leave this protest, 3. we also demand that you put away all WWP propaganda or it will be taken from you.”

A Chicano militant could be heard saying, “Will you meet these demands? If you do not meet these demands, we will have to ask you to leave.”

“How exactly would you do that?” Enoch said. “Eat my rear end, that’s my demand.”

You mean t-sip? They just think that's a good own it's supposed to mean while they were off fighting wars UT people were sitting at home sipping tea. They also only ever call it t.u. instead of UT. These are not bright people.

Here's a whole loving wikipedia page about A&M slang, all of which I know because the mall sold T-shirts with all this poo poo on it.

Reminder that David Whitley, the bumbling nominee for Texas Secretary of State, is in front of Senate Nominations today which is 4-3 R/D split oh and one of the R's is Seliger. Also he needs 2/3s in the Senate anyway to get approved so the man is doomed. Kirk Watson is on this committee and I remember watching him meticulously take apart young-earth creationist and national embarrassment Don McElroy during his confirmation hearing for chair of the SBOE years and years ago (he did not get confirmed). Should be fun.

Is the 2/3 requirement in the constitution, or is it a rule the Senate could change like the threshold for bringing up bills?

Not particularly. Dude was extremely cautious. Seliger seems skeptical so he may not get out of committee.

Nah, it serves a purpose. Every developed country and most US states require it, and that's probably the way it should stay.

Trip report: A San Antonio DSA member presented a plan to pressure San Antonio’s government to be more aggressive on climate change. The attending crowd was about 20 people and they were enthusiastic and receptive. It was officially a DSA meeting but three of them were there. It was good!

As with many things, cops only enforce it when they suspect they can get you for something more. And if you're white you'll probably just get a warning, and if you're not you'll probably get the ticket because they're mad they pulled you over and didn't get to shoot at you.

My wife had the local news on while getting ready this morning and they mentioned the latest development in this (one of the cops "relieved of duty" aka on paid leave). What pissed me off is how they referred to it as "the deadly shooting incident in which five HPD officers were injured" because the injured cops are the tragedy here. No need to mention they got injured after they busted into an innocent man's house unannounced and blew away his dog, killing him and his wife for their trouble.

Oh he might not even get out of committee. Seliger and Kolkhorst were both pretty cool on him.

Also, the Gov's office has reason to be mad at him for loving this whole scheme up.
