Selective enforcement is the name of the game. Ken Paxton won’t be using this rule to take over a school district in Bastrop.

Legalist authorization bureaucracies will hinge the draconian punishment for failing to hang a sign on the dye used to color fabric.

Its a pathetic liberal gotcha that fails to reconcile with the power of state government.

Either the sign goes up and some evangelicals vandalize it with impunity. Or the sign never goes up because school administrators don’t think the Texas AG will punish them for ignoring the law in this instance.

In this case, it doesn’t look like the flag was ever actually displayed.

Either way, evangelicals hold all the cards. Secular Liberals only manage to performatively protest in order to feel better.

Now, if a principal or administrator had some balls

You don’t become a public school middle manager in Texas by showing balls. You’d get weeded out before you even got through the substitute program for teaching gym class.

Party’s over and Paxton is free to go back to business as usual.
