Texas - An Evil State

Suicide is good. Murder is bad.

People who commit suicide are noble.

Gotta say I’m anxious to know the OP’s position on the two legs vs. four legs issue.

Whatever position he/she has, I’m sure it will be well thought out.

[D_Odds]

I was going to say Texas is evil because they signed T.O.

It’s offset by the 2-seeded Dallas Stars losing in the first round to the 7-seeded Colorado Avalanche. Hockey in Texas makes the baby Lord Stanley cry.

Tell you what, Acqua.

Why don’t YOU go down to Austin and set yourself on fire in front of the state capitol building?

I’m sure that with your brave example maybe another person like you who believes that Texans–all Texans–are evil, will go down and set THEMselves on fire in protest too.

You know, if one person, just one person does it they may think he’s really sick and they won’t listen to him. And if two people, two people do it, in harmony, they may think they’re both faggots and they won’t listen to either of them. And three people do it, three, can you imagine, three people going down to Austin and setting themselves on fire. They may think it’s an organization. And can you, can you imagine fifty people a day, I said fifty people a day going down to Austin and setting themselves on fire. And friends they may think it’s a movement.

And that’s what it is.

He would, he’s just waiting for it to come around on the guitar.

@silenus

So, you want to know if Texas has rehabilitated itself?

And they all moved away from silenus on the bench there.

No they would be consuming their lives to purchase something. It would be their choice.

Suicide is different from murder.

Suicide is good. Murder is bad.

Peeople who commit suicide are noble.

Well then…as someone who lives in Texas, and has held the twitching corpse of his best friend who who comiitted suicide and then had to clean up the brains and blood and skull fragments…I can tell right now there is nothing fucking noble about it.

I didn’t vote for the idiot in office in this state, none of the candidates I voted for made it into office. and none of the people power in this state give a rats ass about protestors no matter how flammable they are. If every person opposed to the death penalty in this state set themselves on fire in the middle of austin the response would be “good…now we do dont have to listen to them whine about the death penalty any more”. If there was something useful I could do to prevent this kind of nonsense from happening I would. Not going to happen any time soon.

Oh, and our bbq kicks ass. And GW is a carpet bagger, not a Texan.

[Omegaman]

Hell, it wouldn’t even take 500. More than 5.

And that is an extreme example. Other things could be done.

How about the good Texans refuse to work until the justice system is fixed.

The point is you have to stop this. By any peaceful means.

So you think 500 , no only 5 people should set themselves on fire ? How nice of you to volunteer us (or them ) . You off your meds ? Does your nurse know your playing with the computer ?

He was a Quaker protesting the war. I don’t know anything about RATM.

Oh yeah - almost forgot, as Crotalus pointed out, he was a Buddhist. A Friend could not commit suicide (a violent action), because Friends are pacifists.

Dumbass.

That’s what I was thinking. Or another protest…every Texan who doesn’t support the DP should leave the state. That’ll show them! :smack:

Couldn’t we just get rid of all the jerkwads?

[Smeghead]

@SoulFrost

OK, that’s one too many. Somebody call it.

Yep. It’s pretty obvious what’s going on here, IMHO.

@bdgr

Phht.

Texas should be sucking Kansas City’s mother fuckin’ dick.

And then licking its own fingers.

[SoulFrost]

Put our fingers in our mouths? Man, that’s just nasty.

Okay, I’ll give you GW, but you have to take credit for DeLay.

Regarding the barbeque: You obviously have never had real Eastern North Carolina barbeque. Slow smoked pork kept moist with a vinegar sauce as God intended.

[bdgr]

Kc Has some good BBQ, but I make a bad ass brisket.

[D_Odds]

Maus, tdn, and bdgr, each of you should sponsor a trip for me to your respective states, and feed me your best bbq. Then I will return, and I will proclaim the best bbq. It will be undisputed, and the losers will have to immolate themselves for dingbat’s cause.

I await my air, hotel, and car reservations.

Absolutely, its good stuff. I got nothing against it, just saying that Texas BBQ has its place too.

@MGibson

Wow, another “Texas sucks” thread. We haven’t had one of those for at least a month or two. Fortunately this one was completely original!

Actually, I think the April Texas-bash was preempted by threads bashing the IRS, Tuba/SDMB administration, and the price of oil. Glad to know that we’re back on track… :rolleyes:

So, just to add my voice to the chorus:

I PUT BEANS IN MY CHILI! AND I LIKE IT! TAKE THAT, YOU TEXAS BASTIDS!

We do not. He’s a space alien, just like Phil Gramm.
