Guess where he's moving to? The Texas hill country.

The information he provides about Illinois will shock you.

probably telling all his neighbors "Here's how WE did this back home in Illinois"

I hate seeing Texas turn into a total melting pot, and fear we're turning into a purple state at an accelerated rate.

I consider myself a proud Texan. I had no say in where I was born, but thanks for making me feel welcomed. (Sarcasm)

Seriously? Guys like him are choosing to move to Texas for the liberty. May his tribe increase. We'll need them to offset the infected zombies and illegal entrants sucking at the government's teat.

There is also an overt push to increase the liberal base here in Texas as well. They want to make this a blue state like they did in Colorado over a period of years. I'm not saying this fellow is part of that movement, but it is happening here.

It will be blue once the new proposed immigration reform is passed and implemented.
