Home boy got burnt. He shoulda dodged when he charged the Officer.
One less parasite on Society. Don’t mess with (in) Texas.
The moral selling politicians have no concern about getting a halo. The camel cannot go thru the eye of that needle.
Does that Spear come with a Majic Helmet? Asking for a rabbit hunting friend.
That Spear is one of the objects of my covetousness. (And the only spear I’d bring to a gunfight, y’know.)
Hope the Harris County deputy recovers completely. That’s a rough way to clean up after those Demon-rats in the DA and Judges offices.
