I Love Yew, Texas. This Statement Does Not Apply to Gov. Greg Abbott.
Greg Abbott, the governor of Texas with vice presidential aspirations, has finally made a statement after the Odessa slaughter.
Greg agrees that thoughts and prayers aren’t enough.
He has a solution, my friends, and he took a strong and meaningful stand on it.
He says we should expedite executions for mass murderers.
No, I am not freekin’ kidding.
Following the second Texas mass shooting in a month, Gov. Greg Abbott tweeted on Monday night that Texas is “working on a legislative package” and that “expedited executions for mass murderers would be a nice addition.”
It’s unclear whether that legislation will wait until 2021 — the next time the Texas Legislature convenes — or if Abbott is considering calling a special legislative session.
Uh, and how many of them have been taken alive? Good Lord, Governor, haven’t you noticed that we execute the vast majority of them on the damn spot?
And, “nice” is an odd word to use, don’t you think? He didn’t say effective or meaningful or helpful. He said nice. That’s just weird.
He’s just weird, y’all.
