[Cable]

Just plain sickening. It is spreading like wildfire.

[papabearclif]

Pathetic!

[mysticguido]

One of the reasons I left New Jersey...

[bowhuntntxn]

If this isn't a blatant act of communism I don't know what would qualify.
God bless Texas!!!!

Can you please elaborate how this is an act of communism.

[Spoken0313]

Yeah no kidding. Texas shouldt cooperate with any state or govt which blatantly ignores the 2nd Amendment

Agreed!

[texast224]

Can you please elaborate how this is an act of communism.

Acting as a totalitarian police state, total control over civilians, regardless of constitutional rights, prosecution under chumped up charges to exercise the will of government. It is like living under a commie dictator.

This is scary.

[mysticguido]

When I lived in NJ, Everyone called it a Commie State of Jersey... Look at the State Police Uniforms.... Christie is way better then Corslime ever was..... But I have seen first hand the State going down hill, To the dark side..... In a few years it will be like NY or Caly... Just to sad.... It is My Birth State, But I'm a Texan Now....

Ever wonder why so many Yankies are moving down here??? FREEDOM.... UPHOLDING THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES of AMERICA and TEXAS... BETTER PAY AND MORE JOBS... BETTER WINTERS (sucky summers) YOU CAN OWN FULLY AUTO RIFLES....DID I SAY FREEDOM......

Just another reminder of why I will never visit that part of the nation. That story is about as unAmerican as they come. What a bunch of power hungry sleezeballs.

I vacation out of state every year and enjoy it. But every time I cross back into Texas I do a little happy dance in the drivers seat.

I do it every time too!

Same here. I think traveling and seeing different parts of the world is one of the coolest things you can do but I get homesick pretty quickly. I remember going to Europe for two weeks one summer when I was in high school. We saw a ton of interesting things, I love history and it was everywhere. I'll say the moment that sticks out the most in my mind though was when we stepped through the door of the plane when it arrived back in Houston and I could feel the heat and humidity coming through the tunnel. I was so glad to be home.

Are you defending this action?

[bowhuntntxn]

Are you defending this action?

No. I am questioning using communism as a comparison, rather than a more accurate word like dictatorship.

[HEADHUNTER71]

Smh

[Blue Tick]

No. I am questioning using communism as a comparison, rather than a more accurate word like dictatorship.

Dictatorship is no where near accurate. That implies 1 person is in charge, which is not the case here. Let me help you out.

This should help you out. Now which 1 seems more fitting?

Neither actually. But definition #2 of dictatorship fits much better than controlling production of goods.

But in general terms, both communists, and socialists tend to allow themselves to be led by a dictator.
