here is how it works: a friend is a GM in her 60's....Her ADOPTIVE daughter is in Gatesville for drugs

My friend is the care taker for the convict's 4 year old.....

In what world is that good.?

In the $32B surplus world it doesn't matter.

Screw the GM whose crime is adopting a child.

Screw the child she adopted even thought the likely cause pf her adpotion were a raft of family problems leading to her adoption....

And by all means, lets screw the 4 year old cause white Republicans in Austin don't care about him in the slightest.

Texas is a horrible place run by horrible people with the complicity of us all

a short response..Texas is racist and barbaric...cause a bunch of racist barbaric State Senators and Reps want it to so......long before Trump and White Nationalism and Christian Nationalism and all the other 'isms . we treated the less than...less than.....in some locals being 'less than' only involves being brown skinned.

alto of Dems have blood on their hands in our pogrom of the marginalized....tons of Dem attorney's from places like UT and SMU, and TTU Law Schools. going way back. engages in this.

They donate so D's ignore their.... 'er.... character flaws.

To some extent they still do........biz a usual ....no wholesale objection from any one on the Defense side to the barbaric baking of prisoners in Huntsville this summer....No general strike from members of the bar for the mentally ill being treated like drug gangsters....

next time u hire an attorney ask them what they have done lately to advance human rights in Texas. You'd be shocked at the answer........

for u kids there are quite a few black and brown people who did life for pot.....no whites that i know of

Coincidence? 116 degrees in the cells and 113 drug prisoners serving life... according to DMN....of course the temp will go down...eventually ..but these guys are doing life so they will still be in TDC

I just found out about this TDCJ summit here in Austin this month. Could be helpful for some of us in learning more or getting more involved?
