They are trying to make an open-air slave pen.

Just fucking cut 'em down. Enough is enough. Nobody is listening. Politicians don't care, they're being paid. Most people don't know and are more than happy to eat the shit fed to them about how these stupid things are for their own good.

Just fucking cut them down. If you can, do it. If you see someone cutting one down, shut your fucking mouth.

Wow, who could have imagined the whole "we won't be punishing women" thing was an utter lie.

This is Texas’ idea of “freedom” in the United States of America. Cowards with guns

Oh man flashback to Shootemup

Your location data should be considered part of your personal effects just like the contents of your purse or backpack: only subject to inspection by police with a search warrant. It is entirely unreasonable to be digitally tailed in every public space retroactively though time; if a robots.txt existed for my location, it'd say “fuck off”.

Texas is a shithole. Everyone with a brain should be working as hard as possible to leave as soon as possible.

Stop giving them your labor and tax dollars.

The cop creepers also plotting to track down their exes and women they’re interested in

[–] cavitationfetishist2@quokk.au 1 points 12 hours ago

They have too much power and talking has been ruled out. Kill them, or they will kill you by a thousand vectors. Everything that you continue to let them do is partially your fault for being lazy.

Under his eye

Looks like this was back in 2024. Which surprises me because flock in my friend group hasn't been discussed much until recently.

Couple things to add...

  1. Flock and the sheriff initially claimed that the case was a welfare check on the woman

  2. Internal court docs show it was a "death investigation" into the fetus

Despite whatever bible verse they want to quote, a fetus is not a person. The bible belt is a cancer. People are too selfish, scared, and stubborn to get educated.

[–] vinsombra@lemmy.world 6 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Numbers 5:11-30 literally gives a ritual to induce an abortion. Bible sanctioned abortion. *If the wife has been unfaithful... So of course, it's about controlling women, not supporting them .. but still, it's a fun verse to spit back at the "Christians" that don't ever read their own book.

[–] SnoopSqueak@lemmy.today 2 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

But then they claim it makes sense in context, or the old covenant is different from the new covenant, or some other cherry-picking bullshit. It is necessary to cherry-pick the bible because it so frequently contradicts itself.

We really shouldn't tolerate baseless claims at all, people are dying needlessly for it. When people are given permission to falsely represent the reality we share, there is no limit to where their delusions might take them.

[–] vinsombra@lemmy.world 2 points 13 hours ago

Hard agree. Modern policy shouldn't be influenced by cave people from three thousand years ago who had no understanding of medical science. And any ethical or moral arguments should be based in both sound logic and up to date knowledge of the subjects under discussion.

No, you live in a fascist state.

[–] NotSteve_@lemmy.ca 4 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

Which is weird. Americans have been telling me for the last couple decades they live in the most free, best country in the world so I'm confused

[–] professor_prime@lemmychan.org 1 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago)

America is still the freest country, bar none.

I'm not trying to defend America here, but rather put into perspective how every other nation is considerably more restrictive and needs to step up their game!

You should stop talking exclusively to Republican voters.

[–] NotSteve_@lemmy.ca 3 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

In my experience, the American exceptionalism is bipartisan even if you guys don't realise you're doing it. The propaganda runs deep

[–] Zorque@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago

Seems like the propaganda is working if that's what you think the only experience is. If you think that people live by a two party system just because that dominates the US political landscape you're more delusional than the people you describe.

[–] Zorque@lemmy.world 9 points 15 hours ago

Theyre the same picture

[–] end0fline@piefed.social 3 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

I hate to say it but this is my home county's sheriff department. Good ol' Johnson County. Thankfully I no longer live in the state.

Epstein criminals - still out in the open

[–] Malyca@lemmy.zip 2 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

The children only matter when they're a means to punish women

[–] cavitationfetishist2@quokk.au 2 points 12 hours ago

Not true! They're an excuse for racist violence too!
