Once Again, Texas Leads the Way

Mock execution at NHS pep rally raises questions: "A performance during a Nacogdoches High School pep rally last month has created some controversy between students and the administration over the appropriateness of a skit that included the executions of rivals and toy guns.

Some students say the skit was inappropriate and are circulating a petition — which currently has 122 signatures — protesting 'gun promotion' at pep rallies."

Yes, Joe Lansdale lives in Nacogdoches, but he had nothing to do with this.  At least I don't think he did.

Hey! What's tasteless about shootings in High Schools?

From what I've heard, I don't think Joe Lansdale needs a gun.

True fact: before he changed his name, Chuck Norris was known as "Joe Lansdale".
