I'm sorry, Texas Imgurians. You can't solve your problems with Republicans by voting anymore. Violence will probably have to come into the picture if you want your votes to count again.
I won't call for Violence, but if would be a citizen of the Lone State, i would buy a nice hunting Rifle right now, maybe a sidearm and go weekly for 1 hour to a range to get my aim up again. Especially when i life in a city. Texas may renounce the Election and go Civilwar, but they have to deal with the 45% Democrats which live in the cities first and they got the Voters registration. 2nd Amendment goes both ways and the cities may need a Militia very fast.
Yeah, but you see, the thing is, that it's state sponsored intimidation. Oh, wait, that just means they're a failed state. Texas you say? Even more accurate.
That should be the extra charge that gets thrown out during the plea deal. Of all the things illegal with what he just did, intimidation is the most minor.
Yep, I'm sure the Texas AG will go right after the, uh...bastard who... Well shit. I have no idea if Attorneys General are answerable to anyone in the Federal government, but my sinking heart suspects it's to the Governor, and he definitely 100% behind this.

Dear Ken Paxton,

Don't worry, the Republicans will get around to guillotining Democrats eventually. Gotta phase that sorta thing in gradually.

The Republican Party itself is a criminal organization now.

Apparently in Texas, it's unlawful to allow a Dem to register to vote.

Ok, so, lawyers of Imgur, how many civil liberties infractions did the state of Texas just commit?
