Texas Chaos Illustrates Left's Increasing Reliance on 'Mob Rule'
Big Government ^ | 6/28/2013 | Dr. Susan Berry

Posted on 06/28/2013 11:21:53 AM PDT by markomalley

It appears from the actions of pro-abortion supporters in Texas on Tuesday night, "mob rule" is now the preferred way the left conducts legislative business. Gov. Rick Perry has called a special session of the Texas legislature on July 1st for another vote on a bill that will ban abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy and set higher health standards for abortion clinics to be brought forward. 

It seems Obama’s Organizing for Action is quickly planning another “unruly mob” for that event.

State Sen. Wendy Davis (D) is being hailed as a new Democrat rock star for filibustering a bill that not only could save thousands of unborn babies’ lives but also the lives of their mothers from bacteria-laden Planned Parenthood and other abortion clinics, as well as from the misdeeds of abortion facility staff members.

Rather than allow regular procedural rules guide the legislative process, Davis’ abortion supporters turned themselves into an “unruly mob,” interrupting the voting process after Davis did not meet the requirements of the filibuster, and preventing a vote by Republicans prior to midnight.

"It is stuff like this that could down the road explode in violence."

Yep...the sooner the better. We're not getting any younger, after all.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

The Rangers are not the Rangers they used to be and are mainly detectives now.

That's not the Ranger I know. He is tough as hell and has my respect and the respect of the entire local law enforcement community.

The Texas DPS is charged with police protection at the Texas Capitol complex. It maybe that the Rangers would be asked to help or additional DPS brought in from other Districts.

In September, 1991, the Texas Legislature transferred all
duties and responsibilities of the Capitol Security Police
Division of the State Purchasing and General Services
Commission to the Texas Department of Public Safety.
Region VII is commanded by a Major who reports directly
to the Chief of the Texas Highway Patrol Division of the
Department.

To be honest, I have known a lot, some are good, some are not, and a couple are better than good. We like to make fun of them. Some take it good, some not so good.

Cross thread:

An idea for the Texas Senate if Wendy Davis decides to filibuster again and bring in the goons.

Paid protesters being bused in. Lovely.

See? This is why we need 0Care and RubioAmnesty...so the funds needed to pay the mobs are there.

Don’t forget to invite your motorcycle riding friends. They tend to be conservative and they tend to elicit better behavior from leftist bullies.

I am going out tomorrow to make some motorcycle-riding friends, on your suggestion.

‘Round here, we just try to not end them as they love our hilly scenic roads and we don’t expect them.
