Welp. Back to the boob thread for me.

Abbott refused to debate if there was a live audience. What's he afraid of?

Most people on this board are not "firmly on his side".
Why would you vote for Beto?
Beto regularly invites Abbott/Trump supporters into his rallies and takes questions from them, unless they are being disruptive.
No point in getting into reasons why I'm voting Beto. I won't convince you of anything. I'll just say that I'm quite sick of one-party domination in Texas and I think we need some change. And the Rs in power in Texas are very extreme and in my experience, not representative of most Texans at all. They dont care about the real issues facing Texans and instead are there to aggressively push their agenda. Abbott is a terrible governor. He has nothing to hang his hat on and his only selling points are "Beto bad! Beto communist!"

well for starters i'd like a governor who furiously fights to stop school shootings from happening rather than sitting there and saying "well it coulda been worse"

Because Beto is a (D)…literally…and he's a Biden supporter! That's enough to vote against that grifter. By the way, WTF has Robert Francis ever done for Texas?montegobay said:

Is that what he said?larry culpepper said:

How do you reconcile that with blue DAs (Beto's party) consistently going lax on law enforcement and constantly thinking of ways to let criminals free rather than say, draconian and immediate punishment for any that threaten schools or survive doing a shooting.larry culpepper said:

ETA: he also thanked the police for their "bravery" or whatever. Completely and utterly embarrassing.
As embarrassing as a candidate that has been arrested multiple times? Wears a dress? Writes stories about harming children? Constantly says the F word in rallies?larry culpepper said:It's literally what he said less than 24 hours after it happened.Shooter McGavin said:Is that what he said?larry culpepper said:

I don't personally care if they get swiftly executed. But I'm not convinced its a deterrent to people like that who are so ****ed in the head. It also doesn't address the cause, but is a reactive solution that satisfies a need for revenge. It's not really a solution.
Nope, no one did at that point.Teslag said:larry culpepper said:It's literally what he said less than 24 hours after it happened.Shooter McGavin said:Is that what he said?larry culpepper said:

Did he know all the details regarding their actions when the said that?
Notice part of it is giving the family an incentive to be more watchful. And the Media circus halted by abolishing the name. Believe Dane Loesch suggested that.larry culpepper said:

Exactly. Blue DAs also just allow destructive vagrancy and homeless camps at will, and store mob robberies like in the north.Rapier108 said:
Don't forget all of the judged elected in 2018 on Beta's coattails.
They are the main reason Harris County has gone to complete *****
no one single cause. a complicated problem. But in sum, a mental health crisis and widespread (legal) availability of firearms. Abbott (and his party) aren't interested in addressing either of these 2 issues.Teslag said:larry culpepper said:
