Keith Self (R-TX) said god killed those people in Allen [View all]

Well, he said "god is in total control of our lives," which suggests that God did it. God wanted all those people shot. And so they got shot. And God is real. And prayers work. And anyone who says otherwise is not a true believer. Not a REAL Christian! (Some of that is mine)

These are the asses that Texas keeps electing.
