Texas Governor Abbott Faces Backlash for Suggesting Shooting Mexican Border Crossers



Republican Texas Governor Greg Abbott recently discussed the state's efforts to prevent Mexican immigrants crossing the border, stating that shooting individuals is the only measure not being implemented due to concerns about potential murder charges from the Biden administration.


During an appearance on "The Dana Loesch Show", Abbot mentioned, “The only thing that we’re not doing is we’re not shooting people who come across the border, because of course the Biden administration would charge us with murder.”


In response to Abbott's comments, Texas Democratic Party Chair Gilberto Hinojosa issued a statement. Hinojosa expressed strong disapproval, stating, “The only thing stopping Greg Abbott from ordering law enforcement to shoot migrant women and children are murder charges. Time and time again, Greg Abbott and Texas Republicans have made it abundantly clear they have no morality or humanity,” as part of his lengthy statement.
