I was always thought the Norwegians I worked in with Texas had remarkable courtesy and social tact.
Never once did I hear them say Texas was a shithole, though undoubtedly some of them thought that. Unlike Trump, they evidently had the tact to be gracious and courteous.

p.s., I had a good time in Texas, lots of nice folks, and as long as your are not poor or working class, it is easy to have a good life there.

You really should not make it a habit to leap to assumptions.
They were in Houston on temporary assignment from Statoil.
When you work in the international petroleum industry, you are generally expected to take temporary assignments overseas. They were not choosing to live in the U.S. permanently.
Is this beyond the comprehension of rightwing Trump-ettes?
BTW, what was your handle before you made this new one?
Rule 10 from Rules of the forum states:
"10. Dual Accounts - Don't go overboard. I'll allow a couple, but myriad accounts will not be allowed... and duplicates used to break rules will result in temp banning for all accounts... and removal of duplicates."
This implies the mods can tell if multiple accounts come from the same IP address, does it not?

Call it intuition, because I have 15 years of message boarding experience with rightwingers.
Now, as for that assumption you so readily and speedily leaped to, I am sure you thought it was a huge "gotcha" moment for you --- but maybe you can take it as a lesson to refrain from automatically leaping to assumptions before you have a sufficient about of information.
