I go back and forth on Abbott. I'm from Texas myself. He tries to walk a line to keep both sides happy. And he blindly follows anything Desantis does. It's annoying. But, he's better than what the Texas Democrats have to offer. They keep trying to push their candidates as the "cool guy" and "cool mom". It reminds me of the Hello fellow teenagers meme.

Hi! My family and I are Conservatives stuck in the hell hole of California and we keep flip flopping between moving to Texas or Florida. What we want is to live in a place that's going to remain free, independent and real America for as long as possible so what can you tell me about Texas? (I've only been to Austin one time and that was back in the 70s so that doesn't count.)

It varies. My town is one of the most Conservative in the US. Our big BLM protest was 60 upper middle class white college kids from west Texas. If they broke a window they'd be immediately shut down. There's no woke sensitivity and Race Theory here. You can still interact with kids without being accused of pedophilia. Nobody is going to accuse you of rape for whistling at them. It's pretty chill here. And we just became a constitutional carry state, so you don't need a license to carry anymore.

Hey, thanks again for that. I really appreciate it. :)
