96. That fucking West is just a piece of shit
Fri Feb 5, 2021, 09:55 PM
Feb 2021

Let them do it. I'm leaving the state anyway for bluer pastures. Too old and cannot wait any longer. Personally, I'd like to see the faces on the assholes in this state when the DoD pulls everything out. Texas cannot survive without DoD. Sad thing is this state used to be something you could be proud of. Now there remains only shame, and hate.
