Life long Texan here.

I’m not in denial.

Of course Texas is being invaded as we speak and has been for a long time.

However, there ARE MANY majority white towns. Painting with too broad a geographic brush leads to miscommunications and misunderstandings. Such as, claiming that small towns are majority white, period, which is clearly untrue. That would mightily depend on WHERE in Texas a small town is located. Could be nearly all white, nearly all black, nearly all Hispanic, etc.

I’m giving you a single example of what a website shows about a amall Texas town, and there are MANY, MANY that would fit this profile.

Graham, TX is located well west of the Metroplex. It’s not a suburb or an exurb but a completely stand-alone town of approx. 9,000.

Demographics according to this website with info on towns:

In Graham 93.30% of the population is Caucasian.
In Graham 1.74% of the population is African American.
In Graham 0.41% of the population is Asian.

This info does not disaggregate Caucasian as to Anglo and Hispanic. This is strictly racial data, and Hispanics are Anglos by race.

If you want data on Hispanics in Graham I’m sure you can get it. I’m trying to be precise and concise.

Now I’m going to ask you a question. If zero towns in Texas were majority white therefore all towns were majority some other race other than white, how come TX politics is what it is and Republicans win there in so many ways although of course not in every way? It doesn’t wash to claim the non whites don’t vote.

No, the truth is that non-whites DON’T vote in proportion to their numbers but in truth, by Congressional district whether for the Texas House or for the U.S. House, these so-called non-majority whites have the upper hand across this vast state. WE outvote the concentrations of people in big, big cities because of our vast land area and how many conservative whites live, work and vote across this monstrous state. Texas used to vote Democrat, always. These same type of voters that vote GOP now used to vote the opposite.

Check out small cities such as San Angelo, Abilene, Lubbock, Midland, Odessa, Amarillo, Wichita Falls and the like - their demographics matter, too. And as someone mentioned, you have huge areas attached to the giant cities but in exurbia, such as the Woodlands to name one, near Houston. And there are several of those around Texas.

I think it’s more likely this guy was related to Antifa just like Stephen Paddock and the deep state is protecting these guys so the Antifa terrorist organization can continue attacks solely to destroy Trumps Presidency and repeal the 2nd Amendment. Who do they think they are kidding? What conservative or Republican is going to do stuff like this? They are deliberately targeting white Republicans/Conservatives. White people attending a country music concert. White Christians attending church. If it was a Republican or Conservative doing these shootings wouldn’t you think it would be more likely that they would shoot up a mosque? But no, these guys are deliberately targeting white people on the right just like the shooter of Congressman Steve Scalise. This is the deep state taking to arms against us and once again our justice depts are protecting them. All info of these shooters completely wiped off the internet they same day they do the shooting. Not a trace of them to be found anywhere.

Thanks for the info. I’ve been to more Texas big cities than small, and the small ones I’ve been to were definitely not white. Must’ve not been the norm. If I had found one of those, I might still be there.

I’ve always been confused the way Texas votes, because her demographics can’t seem to match. The latest census numbers have still a white majority- 43% white to 39% Hispanic. So maybe it’s only a matter of time. Which will be very sad, because without those electoral votes a conservative won’t be elected to the White House again. I haven’t paid attention, if the margin between votes between the parties is getting less and less.

We need Texas to stay conservative.

= = =

THis headline can be read two ways -

several people shot while at church

or

several people shot [guns] at church

I read it the second way, in the Breaking News, thinking there was a new development.

A comma [people shot, at church] would have helped, but I don’t think commas are put in headlines???
