Pssshhhh!! Cut 'em off!
Austin is full of misinformed liberals who havn't taken the step toward becoming a Libertarian. Also, Oklahoma has the second highest execution rate in the United States, behind Texas, not Virginia. Also, just to be trivial, I'm from Texas and I happen to be against the State death penalty. The thought of the State being able to have people executed is a bit frightening. Gay marriage? End special tax perks to married couples, and get the State out of the licensing business. I have a feeling the only people who would give a damn at that point would be considered to be intolerant bigots.
