        @GregAbbott_TX @NursesGroup those questions serve a purpose you may not even realize. Stop mocking a question you don't have context on

        @1eyewitness @GregAbbott_TX In what universe do you think someone planning on engaging in terrorism will simply confess to it? #delusional

        @NursesGroup @GregAbbott_TX that's not why the question is there. It's about immigration status later for failure to disclose material fact

        @1eyewitness @GregAbbott_TX Failure to disclose material fact? If someone is engaging in acts of terror, we have bigger issues.

        @NursesGroup @GregAbbott_TX we ask a litany of strange questions: are you a nazi in Germany from 1935-1945 for example

        @1eyewitness @GregAbbott_TX That's lovely, but part of their belief system is lying to non-believers. It's not the best way to get info.

        @GregAbbott_TX Reminds me of the stupid questions TSA asks. Hand them your ID and then they ask you your name. I feel safer now.

        @GregAbbott_TX The solution is to go to the bottom of Why terrorism exist?. Obviously wars are not the intelligent answer to the problem.
