    Houston isn’t doing this. The Texas state government is doing it. Abbott and his colleagues have taken over the Houston independent school district.

    They are just turning schools into prisons. They want locked doors, armed guards, and displinary centers? Sounds like prison

      Let’s be honest here, this isn’t their real goal, they want to turn all of Texas into a prison unless you’re rich.

    I cannot imagine that any politician wants to deny access to knowledge. Something doesn’t make sense about it and I suspect the story is one-sided.

    Is there a possibility that they plan to use digital books in the future and consider libraries a waste of space or something like that?
