If you have lived and traveled along the Texas-Mexico border for a decent amount of time, you will eventually come to hear a saying that speaks to the culture of La Frontera.
It could be we will know the border crisis belongs to every American only when law enforcement starts ordering each and everyone of us, no matter the color of our skin, to show our papers. History informs us "they" will come after any of us "they" believe fit the bill of "vermin", those folk who poison the blood. Something to consider as we go about our day. We may first see it as a "border" issue but it's not. It's simply speaks to our humanity.
Our Montgomery Co. crime reporter publishes photos of new interns to the Montgomery Co. jail. They are almost exclusively brown, black or, homeless. If Abutt's new arrest on site becomes law they'll be building a new country jail.
Warning! Unless you are white and upper income, DO NOT COME TO MONTGOMERY CO!

Agree, Kay. It's also of a piece with book bans. Every place that starts with banning books, eventually, ends up banning people.

Isn’t it just sound advice as a practical matter to avoid Montgomery County?
Nothing to see here folks, move along.
