Texas lawmakers failed to pass a bill to improve local flood warning systems this year

Well, we know that the NWS produced the warnings about an hour in advance, that the staff who communicate with local officials had been fired, that Texas abused their emergency alerts on phones so people largely disabled them, and that local politicians were unwilling to invest in a local alert system because of anti-tax sentiment.
So its pretty clear the key problem was getting the warning to people. And that requires investing in systems to do that and having the discipline to limit their use when not life-critical
I suggest checking.
No, but its better to understand what happened instead of some fiction being pushed by local officials.
When you do frequent midnight alerts for missing elderly, people disable the alerts on their phone entirely. Then when disaster hits, they don't know its coming. And because no planning was done for it, they can't evacuate a camp full of kids quickly enough even if they know what's about to happen.
Actually preventing this kind of thing means maintaining preparedness for decades when nothing happens.
They're preparing for a fight with the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal while a grizzly bear is growling at them.
He has, however, read a collection of Hitler's speeches:
Last April, perhaps in a surge of Czech nationalism, Ivana Trump told her lawyer Michael Kennedy that from time to time her husband reads a book of Hitler's collected speeches, My New Order, which he keeps in a cabinet by his bed. Kennedy now guards a copy of My New Order in a closet at his office, as if it were a grenade. Hitler's speeches, from his earliest days up through the Phony War of 1939, reveal his extraordinary ability as a master propagandist.
"Did your cousin John give you the Hitler speeches?" I asked Trump.
Trump hesitated. "Who told you that?"
"I don't remember," I said.
"Actually, it was my friend Marty Davis from Paramount who gave me a copy of Mein Kampf, and he's a Jew." ("I did give him a book about Hitler," Marty Davis said. "But it was My New Order, Hitler's speeches, not Mein Kampf. I thought he would find it interesting. I am his friend, but I'm not Jewish.")
Later, Trump returned to this subject. "If I had these speeches, and I am not saying that I do, I would never read them."
He's been spewing antisemitism like this since at least 2015. (I didn't pay much attention to him before then)
It's not just ignorance when it's pointed out repeatedly over the years and you keep doing it.
They're also emitting a lot of unburned natural gas, there are plans to install a lot more turbines, and it's much easier to fight something new and illegally installed than something that's been around a while. Plus, it's the NAACP fighting it, which makes sense, because the turbines are being used to power a chatbot that's tuned to be racist.
Ideally, we want to get rid of all fossil fuels, but any little place a victory is possible is a good thing.

Problem is that what we dont need is beat cops who go around harassing people because their skin is too dark. What we actually need is detectives capable of catching killers and fences, but the incentives are to go harass minorities
