Get rid of it as soon as possible. What is wrong with Texas? Gotta be money."While critics claimed, "Wasn't Charlie Kirk saying about Secularism being a western and Christian value ? Besides there are way more churches and Jesus statues in India than there are Hindu temples and statues in the USA."
