Could we just put barbed wire around Greg Abbot's house while he's in it, declare it off limits and call it a day? Just askin'.

On the plus side, maybe this is the first step to Texas secession?

"that migrants were bypassing the miles of razor wire and fencing along the Texas side of the Rio Grande near El Paso by moving to the west."

"So then, why wouldn't they just stay in New Mexico?"

"Shut up, THAT'S why!"

He's still OK with drowning ACTUAL children, though, right?

"Abbott claimed the new murderwire was needed to keep migrants from crossing the river into New Mexico — US America — and heading east into Texas."

This very likely WILL keep a lot of people from going to Texas, though not for the reason he thinks.

Texas is supposedly a "weak governor" state. I have to say Abbott is pretty damn strong in the stupid and evil categories, however.

Abbott certainly does inspire violent fantasies.

How do you remove the concertina wire when you're done with it?

Do you just let to rot there until it becomes cactus?

Won’t wildlife get caught up in that concertina wire?

Most likely, but why would Abbott care when he has political pandering to do to the vicious psychos that make up their base?

So they put up a barrier and then freak out because people could just go around it and come in from the other side?

In other words, they've gone from being freaked out at foreigners, to a more general panic about the basic spatial properties of land and the outside world.

I guess the next big story will either be Abbott coming to grips with the geometry of the Earth's surface, or trying to build a giant ceiling.

Who owns the land where he's stringing the razor wire? If it's private land, has Abbott got permission? If it's public land, surely everyone, American citizen or not, has the right to use it for lawful purposes, eg strolling between Texas and New Mexico.
