According to an affidavit written by a DPS special agent, Ozment allegedly called the Governorâs Office on the afternoon of July 25. DPS claims Ozment left the following voicemail (KXAN has redacted the profanity in the transcript provided by DPS):
âI donât know which one of you sons of bâ-es passed this motherfâing bill to get this damn sâ blocking my motherfâing anime, but you whole aâ motherfâers need to unpass this sâ. Yâall are fâing ridiculous with your bâ- aâes. My Google account says Iâm fâing over the age of 18, and your dumbaâ is passing these dumbaâ laws. Iâm a fâing stab every goddâ one of you bâ-es. Unlock my fâing anime.â


Texas allows you to open carry a sword.
Itâs not about protecting people from harm, but sin.
Itâs not about protecting anyone, itâs about surveillance and an ability to blackmail/threaten anyone who steps out of line.
Iâm not surprised given Texasâs reputation. Big hats, big trucks, âdonât mess with Texasâ⊠yeah how about I just skip Texas entirely next time I visit the States. I hear some parts of it are nice, though, but hot isnât my thing.
Carrying a sword openly sounds awesome in theory but terrible in practice.
Gotta have sumthin to shoot at, the more outmatched the better when youâre always drunk and sweating barbecue.
I understand. The sword itself incites to violence. Guns are the same. I own a magnum revolver and the weight in your hand screams âsomeone somewhere needs fixing.â
Nobody that hasnât felt that weight can comprehend. Dumbfucks enjoy that power. It scares the shit out of me.
I have to go to Texas to complete a bucket list of mine (Visit all the national parks in the US) and Iâm trying to figure out how I can do it without spending any money there⊠Pack in my own fuel, food, supplies, stay at free campgrounds or on public land. I donât want to spend a cent in Texas when I go.
Counterpoint: Iâve heard Whataburger is worth the money. Itâs also a Texas-based business, I believe. Never tried it, myself. Not sure if I would or not.
I donât think there is a way I can prevent sending any money to someone in Texas, they have ports, they do a lot of oil refinement. Iâm trying not to spend any money in Texas. They have a significant tourism economy, and I dislike the idea of giving tourism money to a state that is famously bigoted, anti-woman, and pro-christofascist.
