[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My friends and family in TX say most transplants are from CA and IL. They left high-cost areas and came for a career move…but they also admit fleeing the liberal politics and crime. They tend to seek out the predominantly white areas.

I don’t think TX will turn purple.

Ever watched the news in TX? TX citizens hate their social media and local listservs flooded with news on immigration and crime. [b]Even liberals who move there eventually get sick of the impact on their state and communities[/b]…even when they live in nice areas largely unaffected by immigration or crime…same as other places.

Yes.  And even the mayors of liberal cities elsewhere are freaked out by immigration now that it's impacting them to a fraction of the degree that it has affected Texas for decades.

I'm pro-immigration.  Let's let in everybody who doesn't have a criminal record and help them to settle in cities that are begging for population replenishment.

But do enforce the laws at the border already.  In some Texas communities, it's like a sinking boat with more and more people climbing aboard.  A strain on every kind of public and social service that my liberal friends in Montgomery County would be screaming about -- while also sanctimoniously disparaging Texas.

Maybe let the republicans in Congress know because they're apparently only interested in griping about, making money on, and theatrically pandering to their base about immigration rather than actually doing their jobs and passing legislation to resolve some of the issues.[/quote]
