Bay Area Houston

I wrote this letter to the editor just a few days before the Uvalde shooting:

So far in the last 10 years they have shot and killed:

10 Blacks in New York
25 Hispanics in El Paso
49 Gays in Florida
60 Whites in Las Vegas
26 Christians in Sutherland Springs Church
11 Jews in Pittsburgh
14 Soldiers in Fort Hood
32 College students in Virginia Tech
17 Students in Stonemason Douglas High School
10 Students in Sante Fe
20 5 year olds in Sandy Hook

I’ve said this before after the last mass shooting.

Where in the flying fuck is the so called “responsible gun owners” in Texas? These cowards sat quietly while their elected officials passed open carry and then permit less carry allowing anyone, ANYONE, to carry a gun in public. Even a cartel member, a drug dealer, a GI Joe wannabe, or even a felon, can walk around in the public carrying a loaded assault weapon and the police cannot ask if they have a permit to carry or if they are even allowed to have a gun. Under Texas law the police have no rights to question a gun owner and any rights to protecting themselves from a gun nut with a gun.

So where in the flying fuck are you fucked up, chicken shit, conservatives? Years ago true conservatives believed in treating your gun like your dick:

• You don’t talk about your gun
• You don’t brag about your gun to others
• You don’t compare your gun with others
• You don’t pull out your gun unless you intend to use it
• You don’t threaten anyone with your gun
• You don’t display your gun
• And you don’t walk around in the open, in public, fondling or playing your gun

State Representative Dennis Paul will be attending church today in preparing to offer support to the victim’s families of the New York shooting.

Texas State Representative Dennis Paul has provided thoughts and prayers to the victims in the Sutherland Church shooting, the El Paso shooting, and the Fort Hood shooting. He proudly stood with other Texas officials at Santa Fe High school offering an endless supply of his own thoughts and prayers to the 10 kids killed. A total of 73 Texans lost their lives in these Texas shootings. These shootings drained Paul’s supply of thoughts and prayers but he stood strong with the support of his church, St Bernadette’s unlimited supply of thoughts and prayers.

Paul reached deep into his thoughts and prayers basket from his church for the 20 grade school kids shot and killed at Sandy Hook Elementary School. He went even deeper to provide thoughts and prayers to those killed in the Las Vegas shooting and the Orlando Nightclub shooting, and the high school kids at Stoneman Douglas High School.

And now on Sunday Dennis Paul will be attending mass and once again digging deep into the thoughts and prayers basket to offer to the families of the victims in the New York shooting. 10 Americans were killed in a racially motivated attack at a shopping center. Paul will be rushing his thoughts and prayers to the families right before attending the NRA convention in Houston.

 Cripps. MS-13. Proud Boys. Everyone means everyone. Thank you Dennis Paul and Greg Abbott for putting guns on the street with Permitless Carry legislation.

 8 Dead. 5 Seriously wounded. 

 #NoPlaceButTexas again. 1 dead, 5 wounded, one Police Officer in critical condition.

As they say “When he tells you who he is, believe him.”

I would have written another one of my “Why do you have to be a dick about everything?” post, joining the ranks of Sid Miller, Louie Gohmert, the Harris County Republican Party, the Young Republicans of Galveston, and others, but Abbott deserves worse or better. Being a dick about everything seems to be par for Abbott. 

This weekend Chick-Fil-A announced it would discontinue donations to anti-gay organizations. According to Fox News:

Chick-fil-A has announced it will focus on donating to initiatives that further its “mission of nourishing the potential in every child” in 2020 — and that it will no longer be giving to two organizations that it had previously received backlash for donating to in previous years: the Fellowship of Christian Athletes and The Salvation Army.

Salvation Army? Really? 

Texas Governor Greg Abbott had to be a dick in a tweet issued shortly after the announcement.

Gun safety activists held a great protest a block away from Texas State Representative “Little Baby” Briscoe Cain’s home. We had a visit by the Deer Park Police thanking us for a lawful and peaceful protest. Cain also stopped at the intersection but refused to look at us or engage but he sent two 18 year olds to attempt to harass us. It didn’t work. They were armed with NRA talking points but clearly were not educated on gun rights. It was like talking to a stump.

The protest was in response to Cain’s threat to Presidential Candidate Beto O’Rourke. It was well attended with beautiful weather. Great job Rob! Here are a few pics:
