Yet another Byron Cook scheme falls flat....

"And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart."
Galatians 6:9

Ouch:

Last fall, citizens in Navarro County organized a protest against their incumbent State Rep. Byron Cook (R-Corsicana) and asked Empower Texans, Texas Right to Life and others to join in. We stood out at Corsicana’s country club and waved signs in the rain, highlighting Cook’s record protecting illegal aliens and attacking the sanctity of life.

The police were clearly uneasy with the task – though the chief of police at one point threatened to arrest me if the crowd didn’t disperse.

....

Today, the city dropped the charges “in the interest of justice.”
