Hilarious.

This fellow thinks that just because some guys with law degrees and
cowboy hats wrote down that it is fine to kill people for thieving,
that alone makes it all right.

Along with your laws at issue one can mention laws that permit honor
killings, female cir***cision, and the laws of Indonesia for drug
traffic.

They are all abominations that give "LAW" a bad name.

A law that degrades human life so low that it can be taken to save a
television that's being stolen is a bad law.

If I have to explain that to you, it means several things most of them
unflattering, but mostly that decent people should avoid Texas.
