    They were out numbered by Santa Anna's troops but yet they decided to stay and fight and die rather than to surrender to fight at a later date with maybe better odds. To me, that is stupid when someone knows that most likely they will lose and lose a bunch of lives but still choose to do so. And to begin with, texas did not have any legal right to the Alamo since at that time it was still a Mexican terroritory. What the texans did kind of sounds like a blm action to me! The Alamo was not a texas properity at that time period!

    Back then they would call that heroism. Same with Normandy. Times they are a-changin'.

    We all have our own opinions. But, I call that stupid what occurred at the Alamo. Many people died and nothing was gained in that battle except to get a bunch of people killed. Especialy since texas did not even own it and Mexico did own it.

    I guess one could say the same for what is now America during the Revolutionary War. You are entitled to your opinion. You think it was stupid. You wouldn't have fought. History is made by men that will.

    Just a matter of time. The blue wave will continue till the government runs out of the taxpayers money. Then we will all be commie red states. As far as the suppressor bill...it’s a big nothing just like 2A sanctuary states. Federal law is still on the books. Someone will have to be the sacrificial lamb and take a hit to see how much weight it actually carries. It won’t be me. It’s not even constitutional carry in Texas..it’s permitless carry.


    Seriously? Here we go again ,another person that doesn't watch the news,
    He goes to work daily ,comes home,drinks a beer,sleeps,all over again the
    next day while the world turns thinking everything is peaches and herbs.

    Soon as GOV Abbott signs it next week,its done,as far as constitutional carry.

    As far as being a blue state.Seriously? I just moved from lake charles ,la.It is
    BLUE as the Sky,maybe bluer.The whole town is dem,,the whole gov offices
    are demo,the mayor is dem, I think even when the moon comes up,its blue in
    Lake charles.They are so socialistic,it will make your eyes bleed blue.
    Biden was just there sucking up the blue.

    Texas is far from red and when it does turn blue,if ever.Ill move again!!!!

    Being from La. and having a older brother from Texas the "My state is better " argument was often brought up during my childhood. We even argued the fishing was better on our native side of Caddo and Toledo bend . Then I grew up and I let him think he is right . That said a state is as good or bad as it's voters and that can and does change for the better or worse and often does . Maybe La. will join texas and vote in a red governor and maybe Texas will vote a blue governor . What is important is for all free states to send the " we are not going to comply " message to washington . Doing so will possibly persuade some 2 ond amendment fence sitters to fall our way . For everyone who says Fed law trumps state rights remember pot is illegal according to the feds .

    Well I hear they’re smoking pot legally for recreation in quite a few states now. Last I heard the feds still consider it a controlled substance and considers it illegal to ingest. Anybody heard of the feds raiding those states? What about the already constitutional carry states? How’s it going for the permit-less concealed carriers there?
    Lotta love in here. Just sayin

    You may want to read up on Gonzales v. Raich. It was a 2005 supreme court case that said the supremacy clause means when state and federal marijuana laws conflict, the federal laws win. I don't believe it's been overturned.

    From a 2018 news article:
    National Cannabis Industry Association Executive Director, Aaron Smith issued the following statement: *This news from the Department of Justice is disturbing, especially in light of the fact that 73% of voters oppose federal interference with state cannabis laws. But, the rescinding of this memo does not necessarily mean that any major change in enforcement policy is on the horizon. This has been, and still will be, a matter of prosecutorial discretion. We therefore hope that Department of Justice officials, including U.S. Attorneys, will continue to uphold President Trump’s campaign promise to not interfere with state cannabis programs, which have been overwhelmingly successful in undercutting the criminal market."

    In a 2020 case, U.S. District Judge Paul Maloney said *States are changing marijuana laws across the country, certainly that’s true, but federal law has not changed.*

    All is true.I'm not saying texas is better for anything.I'm saying its still red,
    Texas is strange in many ways,same as La. The taxes in La are redonkulious.
    The land tax in texas is redonkulious.They do have 100s more lakes in texas
    and I do seem to do better at getting them in texas.We could sit and agrue
    which state is prettier or sweeter,but all states have their own goodness.

    I'm just stating I cant live blue.I will die red with gun in my cold fingers/.

    All I know is what I see as a resident of Texas. The influx of woke population from California, illegals, and the youth that are being indoctrinated in the schools will soon be voting.

    History is made by winners and losers, right or wrong, killers and savers, brave people and cowards, smart people and dumb people. History was made at the Alamo because the fighters there were just plain stupid when they could have just waited to fight at a later time when they were not outnumbered. No, they stayed and got all of themselves killed for something they did not own. The defenders made history by being stupid and getting themselves killed trying to defend something they not own or posses. Yeah, that is stupid big freaking time!

    You bet. They used to have honor, courage, and commitment. They used to duel for their honor. Most Americans could not be bothered to get off their couch more than once a year to vote these days. We have a wonderful system in the US being dragged down by the Chinese with 5th generation warfare: cyber warfare, propaganda, digital censorship, social
    media disinformation, bad actors influencing social activism, the list goes on. If our leadership does not get off the high horse and warn the people what is going on, we will lose this fight. Russia may have already joined China, so the chatter suggests. We need to wise up and accept the new battle space that at play for our hearts and minds.

    Texans are like New Yorkers with Cowboy hats. Arrogant and everything I do is better. Texas is will on its way to being the next California. Austin, Dallas, San Antonio, and Houston are all huge liberal run cities. How much longer before their numbers out number the conservative rural areas? Not long esp with hundreds of thousands of Californians moving to Texas brining their ideology of destruction with them.
