Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has told a right-wing radio host that there’s only one tool the state isn’t using to stop migrants from crossing the border into Texas: gun violence, because it would prompt a response from the pesky federal government.
“The only thing that we are not doing is we’re not shooting people who come across the border—because, of course, the Biden administration would charge us with murder,” the Republican governor told former NRA spokesperson Dana Loesch on her radio show last week.
Isn’t there something in the Bible about not murdering?
Only if they’re not Christian, American-born, white, and right-leaning - other than that, the Bible states it’s “open season”. /s, just in case
Edit: I can’t tell my left hand from my right hand. They’re hands, please pardon me for my confusion.
Plus darker skin don’t count. Everyone in the Bible is pure white so those with darker skin aren’t saved
Christians seem to be mostly all about leaning hard right these days (in spite of the teachings of the new testament) why would they want to protect left leaning people? Typo?
You are correct. It’s a typo. I’m drunk
They must be working to toss that rule in with the “wearing mixed fabrics in one garment” garbage bin.
In fairness, despite the Bible saying murder is wrong, there’s also a shitload of passages saying it’s right. It’s not really a piece of literature that makes a great deal of sense.
