But what if Avery has the skills and training to watch 5 kids at once in a group?

I agree with you! But that’s not where we are, and this is a valid response to the Texas Leg trying to disenfranchise Democratic voters everywhere and Texas’s Democratic voters in particular. The Leg had months to undo this when they saw the possible response from CA. They chose to assume Democrats couldn’t fight back after the first blow. They were wrong.

Ah, the bridge jumping argument. What about if someone takes a slug at you when you’ve done nothing wrong? Or challenges your HN comment? You respond.

No, Texas has no such law, and that’s a shame. If Texas had, it might have prevented this situation. California is being repeatedly threatened by the Trump Republican government. The threat was exacerbated by the Texas Legislature (not the voters, of course). California voters would never have approved Prop 50 without them.

And what does the Texas Legislature believe about Texas’s Democratic voters? Do tell.

Just curious, did you have this reaction to what Texas did? Or is the problem here just that California responded in kind?
