Boycotting Texas Businesses A rapier works better than

a club.

If I were to set up a boycott targeting Texas businesses, I’d be far more discriminating than someone using a hot-headed “boycott all Texas businesses” approach.

A better approach would be to boycott the firms supportin Governor Gregg Abbot, Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and all the little Texas legislators who voted yes on this legislation and all the little unelected right-wing and Religious Right apparatchiki who pushed through this repugnant legislation through.

It's a cute idea in Lysistrata, probably not so wise in reality.

Under this thinking, every Texan needs to be regarded as a sexual predator until otherwise.
