    As a non American, everything I know about Texas is “Yee haw! Guns, burgers, and libertarianism!!”

    So why, in the very home of big tough men with big hats and leather boots, are these guys not being punished for being gigantic, wet pussies?

      Because it’s bullshit and they know it. It helps them avoid confronting their deep, deep insecurities, feelings of inadequacy and powerlessness.

      Because in Texas, like in the rest of America, the people in charge in every police department are even more gigantic and wetter pussies.

      Ironically, burgers are more a Midwest thing. Texas is all about the bbq beef and chili

              That line is wrong though. West Virginia only exists because it was the half of Virginia that didn’t want to be in the Confederacy.
