Hmmm. The last time I read about the guns in TX, it was estimated there were 2+ for every man woman and child in the state in private ownership.

Do you remember Waco? At the time, I commented to a few friends that the Davidian's had about the same number of guns as any random collection an equivalent population of Texans.

Personally, I think that very few LEO's in Texas would be willing to enforce such an order.

Is it "armed insurrection" if the state government is on your side?

Yes, I remember Waco. (was living in OK at the time) There was never a satisfactory review of those actions. Nuts.

I agree.

Short answer is no. If there is a "rebellion" in TX it will come at the state level. Texas is still largely run by the adults. DC is not. If the Idiot-in-Chief goes the Executive Order route as rumored, we are appoaching the buckle of Pandora's Box. He is not popular in TX, he knows it full well. We shall see if he is trying to incite an open rebellion. At some point the issue of the Constitution will be the pivot point.
