Please go look up independent polls of single issue opinions in Texas, then go look up what voter suppression is.
Do you realize how many people you are telling to “just leave” regardless of means or ability to do so. It is not a viable “solution”. There are activists groups all over the state that are making changes, but they need help, not derision.

Learning about the Hannibal Directive was a new low
