Sounded like he was cold and was very close to being home. What real crime did he commit that they had to arrest him for? They could have watched him for a few minutes more, if he we as close to home as he said he was. Maybe that wasn't the first time he had been harassed. Maybe he was fearful of really interacting as a young, black man with the police.

Texas is a very, very, very big place with lots of empty space, last time I looked.

Not truth, but political hysteria by GOP, led by well known liar and inflammatory bigot Tucker Carlson. https://www.mediamatters.org/tucker-carlson/tucker-carlson-lies-about-ice-and-joe-bidens-immigration-plan

So sad for you, sometimes, Lion, and how threatened you are by differences, and how you really don't understand the rights of others to disagree with you, like you are at a junior high lunch table. I get over the sadness quickly, though, and move onto straight apathy.

Easy to not have them on Favorites on DirectTv.

I am going to surmise that in our state where corporations rule and oil and gas gave 26 MILLION to Abbott in contributions over the last decade, that there will be little to no intervention coming. The very idea of it! Humph!

Long history of nothing meaningful in favor of dogma... https://www.yahoo.com/huffpost/texas-republicans-priorities-energy-grid-203627284.html

We were just speculating on that at my house.

Once again, a lot of 'conservative' blather, like out of a playbook.
