Have we accepted that harming innocent children and pregnant women with razor wire while they seek a better life is fair treatment? I hope not. If you feel the same, join me in taking a stand. Our sense of humanity depends on it. https://www.thepetitionsite.com/takeaction/806/513/820/?TAP=2430&source_id=TexasMigrants

These petitions are great (I signed) but are going to be targets when KOSA and these other bills pass and the facists want to know who doesn't agree with them.

@georgetakei
One would think that Greg Abbott, after being paralyzed as a result of an accident, would display compassion & grace to people who could, in fact, suffer grave injury or death as they traverse toward safety & freedom. But no, he hatefully, spitefully, rigs their journey by placing harmful obstacles in their path. Who does that? Someone depraved and filled with malevolence who should never hold public office.

@Atticus1956 @georgetakei bingo!

@georgetakei I am concerned that @GovAbBIGOTt is using this intentionally to challenge the US / fed govt.

Taunting DOJ & Pres Biden to avoid another Waco / Ruby Ridge- we saw the feds stand down at the Cliven Bundy (welfare) rancher standoff 2014.

White (domestic terrorist) militias challenged fed agents who were carrying out LEGAL ACTIONS against Bundy - he still owes over $1M in grazing fees & court fines.

TexAss wants another civil war!

@georgetakei do these petitions actually work?

Paul Cantrell Jul 29, 2023

@outerspec No. Calling reps is more effective. Still just a drop in the bucket, but at least a drop that counts.

Unless I’m missing something, the headline on this petition is so inaccurate it’s outright disinformation. The Biden administration told Texas border patrol to •remove• these barriers, Texas is refusing, and the Biden admin is suing: https://apnews.com/article/texas-border-water-barriers-doj-immigration-83bcb38e7f5ab613117634d0c439d6b6

The page title — the only thing the vast majority of people scrolling past this will see — makes it sound as if the Biden admin were the ones who put the razor wire there. They’re the ones trying to get it removed.

Biden administration sues Texas governor over Rio Grande buoy barrier that’s meant to stop migrants

The lawsuit filed Monday asks a court to force Texas to remove a line of bright orange, wrecking ball-sized buoys that the Biden administration says raises humanitarian and environmental concerns.

@georgetakei What about personal responsibility? If I walk through razor wire, I'll be cut. I know that, you know that, they know that. The idea is they see the razor wire and don't try. We have legal means for immigration. They should pursue those means.
