    I stand by my whole screed.
    think about it, they are for the most part Black and Hispanic citizens meaning the Babies would be the same? Of course they want to Abort them. That goes back to the beginning

    But what you describe sounds like the Democrats Utopia. The demographics suggest that these are the people that Democrats Pretend to care about. The Results show that as well

    I posted the demographics. It's majority GOP.

    I'm sure there are construction and warehouse jobs. So? What is that supposed to mean? The demographics show a majority live in poverty there.

    Maybe democrats do pretend to care about people like that, but what do you expect anyone to do? Those folks are already on government programs. Where do you think extra money will come from to give them more?

    We could apply the same logic to you and other far-right wingers. You pretend to care about babies but how many unwanted babies have you adopted?

    You see? That kind of argument is for the birds.

    Stop trying to make it. It's juvenile.

    So you are saying that it is an area that is about 65% Black and Hispanic? And it is Republican? Does that not seem a bit od to you.

    PS it is a farming community. Ranching and Ag! But it is a low wage area and there are more people that jobs.

    Not to worry, in about a year there will be Democrats in the area telling them how much they care

    No, you said that.

    I offered stats saying the area was 68% GOP.

    Link please?

    I doubt that. Sometimes, you pull the oddest things out of thin air and expect others to believe you. The area will likely continue to be a wide majority GOP.

    Falls County is 51% White, 22% Black, 23% Hispanic.

    The political redness has been increasing at a rapid rate for a good many years.

    The town of Marlin is 47% black, 27% hispanic, about 23% white, with a 40% poverty rate. Don't like those numbers, take it up with the Census Bureau.

    I'm surprised the 5 who did graduate weren't killed by their peers for 'actin' white'. Maybe they kept it a secret.
