Today, the courts put the SB4 Texas law on hold again. Why?Apparently someone prefers to believe the progressive narrative about SB4 instead of actually reading the law.
Because if you had read it, you'd know where you fell off the cliff.
To help prevent the justice system from falling off a cliff, I suppose. If a court finds it insufficiently stated, understood, or ineffectively implemented, then who am I to believe he/she is following some progressive narrative? They are upholding their oath to weigh things objectively.
The info was reviewed on CNN.
The court questioned the state's solicitor's legal experts about the bill and how it would be implemented. The response to the court's questions came down to: "I don't know." This was the answer to several elements of judicial hypothetical questioning. Without answers, the judge again halted the implementation of the law.
Today, television news interviews of several Texas county sheriffs found them confused on how to carry out the law and also questioning why it was not left up to the border patrol units to fulfill under the current laws. Each sheriff pointed out the same things I did, e.g., stopping someone based on their skin color to check an ID. One, some San Antonio sheriff said the law didn't provide any resources to handle those who would be arrested and SB4 lacked enough specificity to prevent legal counter-actions or claims if legal suits were filed. [Same comments as mine.]
Several cities, including Austin, said they would not enforce SB4. Why? Perhaps Texas cities can electively choose to follow or not follow a governor's politicized agenda. Maybe they are the progressives.
The impression left on me from the interviews with the sheriffs indicated that the law was a political stunt that jumped the gun without putting forth the mechanisms necessary to enforce it.
Perhaps the governor fits that old Texas saying: 'All hat and no cattle.'
