This one issue could get your kid killed. Sure it's a no brainer right?

Not to mention job opportunities will not be available at career day. Recruiting is dead from Texas colleges. This is just another of shoot of the horrific law. Going to college the idea is to get the best job right?

Stop with the hyperbole. Very few people are as emotionally invested in this as you obviously are. Most people don't care one way or the other.

Lol. This issue that no one cares about drives presidential politics you fool.

That may be true, but most won't let it dictate where they live, work or go to college.

They will when it starts to affect their daily lives.

College... absolutely this will have an effect.

I think it will hurt OOS applications if the law stands. Longer term, I definitely think this has taken the wind out of Texas' sails with tech companies and other businesses.

Oh yes it will.

Rice is already very worried so is UT Austin. Companies are bailing left and right.

What don't you people understand about the hypocrisy of this statement?? It's like someone who supports murdering people saying that one who is against it is intolerant of their view. There is a difference between disagreeing on taxes or whatever and people's FUNDAMENTAL HUMAN RIGHTS.

I do not think this will hurt OOS apps or business in TX at all. This issue, while controversial and divisive, is not a dispositive factor for most people in deciding where to attend school, work, recruit, and do business.

It is definitely a factor. There is little middle ground on this issue. For every militant warrior for the unborn that this attracts it repulses 3 or more that are stay the h*** out of someone's uterus and they will stay out of yours. Avoid the state at this point. There are much better options.
