Dallas?
Houston?
San Antonio?
Austin?

All of the cities will be removed from places I would visit, attend conferences in or have anything to do with in the future.

Get out the vote and reclaim sanity for your state and give America a glimmer of hope in the endless darkness that envelopes us now.
I am also considering a personal boycott of ALL companies that have headquarters in Texas, contribute to GOP candidates or causes and an active campaign against them all via online comments and ratings.

Playing nice or ignoring this crazy shit has only led to more death, more violence and less hope.

Texans?
It is in your hands now.

but Tesla is now a TX corp. and will get political support from TX GOP.There's a moral cost to moving to TX for the tax breaks, hope the talent at Tesla understands they are selling their souls to the GOP.
