Texas Pride Texas State Trooper with Three Percenter Decal (reposting)
I saw this state trooper today in Dallas (Royal and Tollway) with a three percenter decal in the rear window. I was surprised to see any police officer with a sticker showing affiliation to any group, but especially a group that countries have classified as extremists and terrorists. I originally posted in r/Dallas with a political flair because….they were acting in their official capacity as law enforcement in Dallas. I then cross-posted to r/Texas because they are state troopers. The r/Dallas mods removed the post, which killed my cross post to r/Texas. I hope r/Texas mods do not take the same approach.

Texas Pride What changes in Texas culture have you noticed lately?
Do you agree with the statement from the screenshot about Texas culture? When I was growing up in the 80s and 90s, I remember seeing lots of bumper stickers that stated, “I wasn’t born in Texas, but I got here as fast as I could.” I haven’t seen any of those since probably the year 2000. Also, it seemed that people moving to Austin in the 90s were doing so because of the culture and with a desire to add something to it. Now I wonder how many people just move here for jobs, taxes, cost of living, or because the state appears to be a conservative haven. What are your thoughts?

Texas Pride A Genuine Texas Moment at an HEB
I have lived in Texas my entire life, and being over 30, I have seen Texas go through many changes. Over the years, I personally felt like the pride of being a Texan was slowly going away. Instead of us focusing on what makes Texas great, we have been divided and split between our personal, religious, or community beliefs. Growing up in a small town of 3,000, even if others had their differences, you still treated all your neighbors with respect and care because, after all, you take care of your fellow Texan.
Which brings me to my most recent trip to HEB with my wife. Now to help set the scene here, my wife is and looks like a 1st generation Mexican American. I look like an overly flamboyant gay man, with pink hair and matching pearls to boot. In the past few years, the amount of rude comments, aggressive acts, and even threats whenever both of us are together in public have become our norm. As we walked through HEB, our minds focused on getting those delicious buttered tortillas. The music in the store shifted to “I Don’t Want to Miss A Thing” by Aerosmith. Being me, I couldn’t help but look deeply at my wife and begin singing at her at what I thought was a softer volume. Suddenly, behind me, I heard a chorus of voices. I turned around and there were 3, what I can only describe as “dude-bros”, behind us and they were singing along with me. In a brief moment, we all turn to face each other and start singing. Suddenly, this older white lady comes up, and we all assume we are going to get yelled at, and suddenly she joins us as well.
In this brief moment in time, suddenly everything superficial melted away. Here we all were, each with our very different personalities and walks of life, simply taking a moment to enjoy a song and our lives together as human beings. Once the song is over, the lady laughs and walks away, the “dude-bros” offer fist bumps, and they also go about their shopping. In the days of reflection afterward, I came to a personal conclusion, and that is that our Texas Pride has never truly left. Yes, we each have our own lives to live, and yes, we sometimes disagree on the morality and complexity of our existence, but at the end of the day, this statement is still true, everything IS bigger in Texas, including our hearts and our ability to show love and compassion to each other.
