We just pulled our military out of theocratic Afghanistan, let's do the same in Texas.

Watch how fast they revert to secularism if they think all those military bases were to be closed and the troops pulled out and sent to places where real American law rules.

FUCK TEXAS!

Just saying, ya know.

1. likely that every red state will have a version of this law very soon. what then nt

7. I'm curious to see what Louisiana Gov Edwards does.

He’s a Democrat but also a devout catholic and very pro-forced-birth, I mean pro-life. I generally like him but hate is stance on abortion.

You can’t throw a rock without hitting a catholic in the New Orleans area. I know many that are otherwise very liberal, but have mixed feelings about abortion.

If Edwards decided to follow Texas, he wouldn’t get much pushback.

3. I said that after the big freeze. If we can't rely on their power grid, we can't have military

bases there. Not for troops expected to be ready for any kind of operation.

4. Convert every military base in Texas into a free women's clinic

Take that Texas.

8. Thread winner!

5. Besides the Oil Industry, the US Military is a major employer.

In Texas.

Lackland AFB is HUGE. My husband remarked how much it had grown since he was last there in 1962. We were there for a week in March of 2018.

There is also Randolph AFB. Ft. Hood, numerous Army and Marine facilities, as well as Naval Stations in Ft. Worth and elsewhere. The businesses around these facilities would go bust. For they rely on them as well.

6. You betcha! This state is full of military bases!

Ft Bliss, Ft Hood, Lackland AFB, Randolph AFB, Ft Sam Houston, Sheppard AFB are very large installations...

There are also smaller ones that are mostly reserve stations scattered about....

9. Yeah let Fox News pay for a Texas military since they are calling the shots there now.
