I think this is EXCELLENT news that should be broadcast as often as possible in California and other states from which people are leaving in droves. Those of us in Texas who are happy and content don't give a rat's patootey what the others think, except if it can be used to keep those who would spoil our way of life FAR away.

I find it fascinating how some people seem to feel obsessively compelled to run down Texas. Wouldn't it be simpler just to move somewhere where they ARE happy and proud of where they are from and ignore our existence entirely?

Just don't get the apparent NEED to run down the state.

Much easier to "change" someone elses state than to stay put and "fix" one's own state. That's just my humble opinion but seems to be the way of it these days.

The post was a obituary for the Texas we all love. Something needs to be done to save this great state as well as the rest of the nation.

I think we should get rid of the poor white trash. Here, let me stick a fork in an electrical outlet to help this along.

I wish people would stop coming to Texas in droves. It's driving up the population and what this state doesn't need is more people to trash it up.
