    Aah, the ol’ “It’s your fault someone is violating your fundamental rights, you dirty immigrant” response.

    One does not wrap barrels in razor wire, install saw blades and nets designed to entangle unless one is intending to kill people. The governor here is violating literal Constitutional law and the fact that Biden didn’t just have him jailed pending trial is a fucking travesty.

      They were not saw blades. They’re pointy disks that were intended to prevent people climbing through the low places, and nets designed to allow marine life through but not people are not “designed to entangle”. It was fit for purpose and that purpose was keeping people from illegally crossing the water border. And what fundamental rights? They basically threw their own lives away trying to do something expressly forbidden.

        Texas has no authority here. Funny how you’re fine with that illegal act, but preserving life? Nah, fuck those people right?

        But keep showing your bigotry. No one is fooled.
