Come and take hate away- written 7/8/16

Do you know what? I've lived very few places, but none like Texas. If there is anywhere that is more multicultural, mixed religion, more worthy of pride- I just can't imagine. We are a melting pot of northerners, southerners, Asian, Indian, Muslims, Baptists, black, and white.  

These officers lost their lives in a horrible, political, and wasteful way- and, you know what?  No. It's not acceptable here. They embodied the Texas spirit, and charged into the chaos... This is Texas. They are Texas.  We don't hide behind hashtags, because, (and I'm adopted in),  and while most are raised north, south, Asian, Indian, Muslim, Baptist, Catholic, Jew, black or white----- You're All In, or nothin here. Because, at the end of the day- we are Texan. (I will be mocked in my birth state for that). Those lives will count, do count, and we will remember, and they WILL ALWAYS count, because you know what? You can't bring that hate here- #comeandtakehateaway because, We will bless your hearts all the way back home, and turn hate to love, and bless your heart. I'm not a native Texan, but I claim it, and some things are welcome; and some are not. Hate- is not. #blessyourheart #comeandtakeit
