And I'm a native Texan, been one for 65 years. So I shouldn't be tarred with the Texas bashing.
There are a lot of good people here. And a lot of violent, stupid, racist morons who have no problem settling a difference of opinion with bloody, downright gory,violence.
But I will frequently give my unfiltered opinion about Dizzy Donald whenever I damn well please.
And like poster#1 in Florida, stomp a geezer here and there are enhanced penalties. And there is a deference to age here which is ingrained, that provides a modicum of defense.
