    People moving there from the east and north are not included in my statement of facts from my own experience.  In Texas it is quiet, a beneath the surface thing that is undeniable, In my opinion.

    Minorities are trampled on in un-obvious ways in my opinion, it is disgusting.  With the influx of people from other west and east states It has to change albeit slowly.  This post was edited by Honey Dew at March 2, 2023 4:45 PM MST

    Texas is all about freedom.  It has exceptionally harsh drug laws and it absolutely loves civil asset forfeiture. This post was edited by Livvie at March 2, 2023 4:45 PM MST
