He should have the courage to just come out and say the high rates of gun violence and death is an acceptable price to pay to protect the profits of gun manufacturers and preserve his reputation among the far-right.

John -

I want to talk with you about Texas’s Governor Greg Abbott.

Especially after he went on Fox News after last week’s Allen, Texas shooting and claimed California had a worse gun violence problem than California.

That is false.

California has some strongest gun laws in the country and one of the lowest gun death per-capita rates in the country.

Texas’ rate... 73% higher than California’s.

Tweet from @bobcesca_go: 'Greg Abbott lied when he said California has more gun deaths than Texas, implying that states with gun control laws are more dangerous than Texas. WRONG. The CDC's most recent numbers show Texas with 15.6 gun deaths per 100K, California is 9/100K.'

But there is more...

I want to talk to you about Texas Governor Greg Abbott, who, instead of taking action to make our schools safer from gun violence, signed a law to send DNA kits to parents of school children so their bodies can be identified after a shooting.

Tweet from Gavin Newsom: 'Greg Abbott’s solution to gun violence? Send DNA kits to schools so parents can identify their kids’ bodies AFTER they’ve been shot and killed.'

I want to tell you about Texas Governor Greg Abbott, who bragged about signing open carry laws that require “no license or training needed.”

Tweet from @SawyerHackett: 'Here’s Greg Abbott in 2021 bragging about how “no license or training is needed” to carry a gun in Texas—after signing a permitless open-carry bill. There have been ~50~ mass shootings under Abbott’s leadership as governor.'

It’s insane.

No license, no training to carry an AR-15 openly in Texas.

For parents, they get a split second to decide whether the guy with the long gun in Starbucks is a mass-shooter or one of Abbott’s open carry patriots.

And I want to tell you how Texas Governor Greg Abbott, who once publicly declared that he was embarrassed his state was only 2nd in the country for gun purchases, has presided over an exponential growth in gun deaths in his state since becoming governor.

Tweet from @meganmmenchaca: '[Graph showing the number of gun deaths in Texas on a sharp rise since 2014.

Greg Abbott is a fraud. He should have the courage to just come out and say the high rates of gun violence and death is an acceptable price to pay to protect the profits of gun manufacturers and preserve his reputation among the far-right.
