If during a murder trial, three or more people can testify that they saw you do what you are being charged with and you are found guilty with a death penalty, your execution is moved to the front of the line.

While some states have or are trying to do away with capital punishment, Texas has put in an express lane.
Nah bro in texas the death penalty is only reserved for capital murder not murder in general capital murder is when you commit murder in the act of commiting another felony or the murder of a public servant (fireman, police, public office holder) even then most states do life in prison and texas just executes them.

And we're okay about it. I used to be against the death penalty until a friend of my had her head literally blown off during an armed robbery. Sweetest girl ever and would have made a positive mark on the world. I very quickly changed my opinion and celebrated the day the man was executed. She was only 17.
I have not been to Texas for a long enough time to be able to fully comment on the subject... but I would suggest that you try moving to Austin first, before you bail on the state entirely.

My understanding is that it is a little island of blue in a sea of red... or at least an island of lightish-red.

Austin has an incredible food scene, arts, music, SxSW, RTX, the Moontower festival; a growing movie production industry, UTA and several video game dev houses call Austin home... Many things that make it worth at least visiting.
I lived in Austin my entire life and I've seen the bats more times than I can remember but honestly the people here tend to get on my nerves and I've run out of things to do

The less money wasted on those monsters, the better.
Some people only take from the world, and they need to be put down before they can take any more.
