> 
> I have a pickup truck with a big American flag on it (mine is much bigger

> 
> You'll have to forgive (you forgive them, I still consider them cocksuckers)
> some Texans for being up in arms against a mother who has lost her son in a

> Due to their collective IQ's, that is the greatest cause they could come up

> 
> Not *all* Texans are assholes, Cindy.

> 
> Many of their memories are only as long as the ATM machine, the dinner

> 
> Again, their "Pride" in "all things military" will continue to supercede

> or even the children they have lost in illegal and illegitimate wars.
> 
> They are trained monkeys.
> 
> Just like a huge portion of Americans have been thoroughly indoctrinated
> from birth to have "Blind Obedience To All Things Authoritarian".
> 
> Their respect for "political parties", "political agendas", "all things
> authoritarian", or "all things military" will continue to supercede their
> humanity, their logic, and their common sense, regardless if you are
> standing on the side of a dirt road holding up a sign and grieving your son
> or not.
> 
> They will always consider themselves as being "Right", in all matters, in
> all instances.
> 
> And people like me, you, and your son, will remain "The Enemy" to them for
> as long as they live.
> 
> I again apologize for such a concentration of them in Texas, but Texas has
> been a breeding ground for such things since it Statehood in the mid 1800's.
> 
> Their main concern is money, power, duty, and military might.
> 
> Dead sons and grieving mothers simply do not enter into their picture.
> 
> I again apologize for some of those in my State giving you a hard time,
> including the shitheels down the road in Crawford.
> 
> As you are never going to receive any apologies, nor even just mild
> Understanding from any of the Right Wing in America or the Right Wing Media,
> one can only hope you receive more apologies from people in other States.
> 
> Although we are becoming sparser and sparser, there are still some Real
> people left in Texas who do not owe their allegiance to blind faith in mass
> murderers nor their Systems.
> 
> Those of us Texans who are thusly, extend our warmest welcome to you in your
> time of mourning and protest against those who have caused it.
> 
> You're always welcome on our front porches, and on our dirt roads, signs and
> all.
