| Subject: As if we have to love the pigs: Cretinous Texas governor joins push to add poLICE to hate crime laws Tue Jul 19, 2016 2:40 am | |
| Texas Gov. Greg Abbott is joining a growing number of state lawmakers wanting to make attacks against police officers a hate crime.

Abbott said Monday he will ask the Texas Legislature to pass a bill next year that adds police officers to the list of protected classes under the state's hate crime law.
His announcement follows the recent fatal shootings of five officers in Dallas and three others in Louisiana.
Louisiana became the first state in May to extend hate crime protections to police.
Lawmakers in Massachusetts, Kentucky, Wisconsin and other states have floated similar proposals.
