Where can i buy a lot of pirahnas?

......unrelated reason >_>

I'd be cool with it if he took our shitty public water. Seriously like every body of water I see these days has some algae-looking stuff growing over it, looks dirty, or there's a warning to not let pets go in.

I'm sure the Texas government will let him since this guy is a donor. At that point, any sort of "civil disobedience" would be well justified and necessary. Too bad Americans just let shit like this happen.

Cool, it's not like I need to drink water. I can use baby wipes to clean too. We don't need the water here in Austin, everything is fine with our cracked earth, record setting heat and drought. WE DONT NEED WATER

WE DONT NEED WATER

Let that that mutha fucka burn

Honestly these people should just straight up start a riot if that's approved.

Eat the Rich

You guys aren't considering just how much more important this guy thinks he is. In his mind he's worth more than 10 million not rich people

Fill his lake with oil instead.

Im sure only good things can come from letting rich people have their way, just like only good things have only ever happened

"People don't need to drink water, my lake is more important."

I'm sure the people that were voted into office are really considering not letting this happen.

Hahahahaha who am I kidding, fuck your drinking water! Get what you vote for, folks.

Austin is solid blue.

"Water is a privilege, not a right."

Republicans are becoming more and more cartoonishly evil

Prime example of a rich asshole that needs to be eaten.

...No, not that that.

They should build a pipeline and redirect it right up his fuckin' ass

All the more reason the very not solid blue state legislature would approve it.

Rock springs is also several counties west of us here in Austin, so Austin being blue doesn't really.matter here. What does matter is that several counties have already shot this down and it's unlikely to move forward.

If this goes through, I would have no issues with someone destroying his dam.
Diverting water people need to live for your entertainment is an act of aggression and as such, people have a right to defend themselves.

That much water, are peoples l8ves.

We need a federal law banning the creation of private lakes and the like entirely. If drought conditions are in play its a life in prison offense.

We need far stronger water protections in general.

If approved there is pretty much no limit to what is justifiable in stopping this atrocity from happening.
