Master Threads
Appreciate you and you make good points, but when I look in the mirror I can honestly say I have never been complacent or complied - this website is what I contribute. I just choose my battles because I only have so much energy
Point is, they are never gonna just leave you alone. While I certainly do appreciate you standing this site up. They certainly do not. As we speed towards even more civil unrest I think we will all be expending more time and energy keeping what little liberty we have left. It is gonna impact us all and already has in one way or another. Hell, our complacency in allowing online censorship lead us here. So here we are and how much more is gonna be lost before it gets really uncomfortable? Skol brother!
 
The takeover of TX is almost complete.
Don't understand. All Abbott did was establish 21 as the age to buy this. Up until now anyone at any age could by this. Everything else remains the same until 2027 and the next Legislature. I think this is reasonable. I didn't read anything in the EO prohibiting the possession of these products.

Look at is as economic development. There will be a new industry of over 21 y/o's buying this stuff for underage people.

Keep in mind I've been drinking a bit...Im just pissed that heard others talked big shit about punishing the Demonrats for their recent transgressions and this was another failure by the TX Pubes... maybe I misread/misinterpreted the original post, which is highly likely. My apologies if that was the case here.

Nothing will happen legislatively until 2027

I have a ton of respect for you and I know we haven’t always seen eye to eye, but we all have to play our roles here.

I am probably wrong in saying that I don’t participate in politics, because a stand for free speech is a political stance.

I do best in dealing with absolutes and politics is not black and white. However, there are some aspects that are black and white for me. Suppression of thoughts, ideas and communication of such is a no for me. What happened to Charlie Kirk is a no for me.

Otherwise, I feel the best use of my resources is to facilitate. There are people that have better minds for working in these grey areas, but I usually find flaws in their conclusions because I am overly critical. I can argue myself in circles so I think it’s best to just leave everyone else out of what goes on inside my head
 
The problem is they won't leave you alone. They will tax you only to demand more. They will infringe on your God given freedoms only to infringe more. They will take your complacency and compliance as weakness and exploit it. We should all start giving a shit about politics. If we had we wouldn't be in the fucking mess. That is the problem with not giving a shit, they do and they wont stop till every ounce of freedom and comfort we take for granted is gone. So we have now reached the point where even the ones sitting on their hands and wanting to just be left alone. Are all wondering how we got here? I suggest looking in the mirror. It's not good times breed weak men. Good times breed complacency and compliance and here we are.
Correct. You will be made to care.
Example is compelling someone to use correct pronouns.. I really don’t care about this issue, but heaven forbid you call a dude with an Adams apple that dresses like a woman the wrong pronoun.

Well said Viking!

I've often said about many social issues: "I don't care. I really don't. You be you. . . . Until you MAKE ME CARE. Once you make me care, I'll REALLY care. And it may not be the way you want."

There is only one absolute in politics, "Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely" We don't have guns to shoot quail after Sunday church with grandpa. It is because our founding fathers knew this absolute truth. I am not attacking you and didn't mean to come across as harsh as it did. We all have parts to play and if being political for you means pulling the lever at your local, state, and national elections than be political.
 
Some feel good stuff on a brutal evening

Will insurance deny her claim for being fat and stupid?

Understand. I've been for casino gambling and legal MJ sales due to all the tax revenue lost to surrounding states. It's an individual's choice to participate. 2027 is just the next time the Legislature convenes unless Abbott calls another special session. Highly doubtful. If Patrick is still Lt. Gov. I fully expect him to try to ban it again. By then it could be a bigger industry.

I don’t care what your opinion of Charlie Kirk is.
Love him. Hate him. Agree. Disagree.
At the end of the day… a man got shot for using his voice.
And that should scare all of us.
We live in a world where people preach “freedom of speech”…
but the moment you actually speak your truth, you risk violence.
It doesn’t matter if you are left, right, or somewhere in the middle
you should never have to fear for your life just for sharing your thoughts.
This isn’t about politics.
It’s about the reality that we can’t even have conversations anymore without anger turning into chaos.
Violence should never be the answer.
Not for opinions. Not for beliefs. Not for words.
If this doesn’t make you pause and realize how far we’ve fallen as a society…
I don’t know what will.
Prayers for Charlie
