not at all, but i have been all over the world and i've never been anywhere where the people are more self-centered and uncompassionate as in texas. i don't know where their "fuck you" attitude comes from but just because the guy you're being a jackass to is a criminal doesn't make you any less of a jackass. |
This is an interesting opinion, not because I'm trying to say you are wrong, as you are entitled to your own opinion, but only asking: you have personally travelled to Texas and found Texans to have a "Fuck You" attitude?
I ask because that is not generally the opinion on Texans. Ride horses to work? sure. Independant? agreed. Criminal Killers - absolutely. But, "fuck you"? Not something I commonly hear about Texans.
Politcs and Religion are two of the worst things to argue about as people get very impassioned about both. So I won't try to convince you the death penalty is right or wrong. I will agree of course that Texas is tough on her criminals. Being, well, not a criminal, I don't have a problem with that.
Now as far as being polite to criminals, we do disagree there. When you break the law, you give up certain rights; it's the penalty you should pay for breaking the law. That doesn't mean you can't eat or should be tortued, sure. But should you be pampered? I would disagree with you there.
