Texas Gov. Greg Abbott ® said shooting people who cross the border is the only tool the state is not using to deter migrants because the Biden administration would sue the state for “murder.”
“We are using every tool that can be used from building a border wall, to building these border barriers, to passing this law that I signed that led to another lawsuit by the Biden administration where I signed a law making it illegal for somebody to enter Texas from another country,” Abbott said on “The Dana Loesch Show” last week.
“The only thing that we’re not doing is we’re not shooting people who come across the border, because of course the Biden administration would charge us with murder,” Abbott later added.
Texas Democratic Party Chair Gilberto Hinojosa blasted Abbott’s remarks in a statement issued Thursday.
“The only thing stopping Greg Abbott from ordering law enforcement to shoot migrant women and children are murder charges. Time and time again, Greg Abbott and Texas Republicans have made it abundantly clear they have no morality or humanity,” Hinojosa said in a lengthy statement.
Start tracking the number of migrants leaving the country, for starters.
Google “circular migration,” if you want to get a full grasp of what’s actually happening at the border and what the politicians don’t want you to know.
Yes!
These governors bitch about migrants depend on them for their states’ economies.
Everyone in America does.
Like 99% of them don’t overstay their Visas or do anything illegal while they are here.
And if they did care about immigrants taking American jobs, they would crack down on the people hiring them illegally.
But they want to have a permanent underclass of workers who can’t demand a fair wage.
