If they were in compliance with all laws, a normal lawyer would have been enough too.

When the governor of a state decides to carry out a personal vendetta against you, get the best lawyer you can get.

Epic must be some special set of Muslims of all the Muslims in Plano. Weird he has a personal vendetta against only one mosque out of many in Plano.

he is against the muslims forming a muslim centric community with muslim centric commercial centers. its not like we dont already have this already though. we have several muslim communities in the area as well as several orthodox jewish communities and none of them have ever been the target of hatred like this. its just because it has become high profile that republicans have latched onto this and are fighting against it.

I'm guessing some developer had designs on the location and shoveld a few million into Abbott's campaign coffers.

Since you decided to shift the topic, I'll take that to mean you agree but are too afraid to say so.

They aren’t going up against just being in compliance with the law. They are up against a negative media and a fear mongering governor.

A good lawyer will help them here.
