    In January [Barbers Hill Independent School District Superintendent Greg Poole] placed a full page ad in the Houston Chronicle, arguing that “being an American requires conformity with the positive benefit of unity"

    TIL being American is actually about conformity. Thanks Texas

      What a crock of shit. The state that threatened to secede no more than a month ago? A state known for its political divisiveness? A state that enacted its own anti-federal abortion stance? A state that has its own energy grid to separate itself from the federal energy grid? Unity my ass.
