Gov. Perry stripped of his right to conceal carry and buy ammo

Our upcoming new Lt. Governor Dan Patrick is hell bent on getting the Travis County DA's office out of the political witch hunting business.

AMEN! Preach it! Patrick will be in a position of power to make it happen.

Cornyn knows perzactly what I think of him. I'm surprised I didn't get a visit from guys in dark suits after his single-handed cloture vote work to allow Reid's agenda to move forward.

Hell can freeze over, and I wouldn't vote for Cornyn to {REDACTED}.

I’ll say you are half right. True the speaker and Lt. Governor have more positional power, but the Governor has enough administrative policy powers to direct agency and commission activities to meet needed objectives. That’s a little bit more than a cheerleader IMO.

If Dewhurst wanted to stop something (like open carry) then Dewhurst and his cadre of liberal democrats could do that with help from Straus, and his cadre of liberal democrats.

You're waiting for a long time where a train don't come if you are trying to gin up support for Perry.

Besides, it's way too early for this particular fight. Perry may decide to retire completely.

That’s what I thought...

[JRandomFreeper]

Right this minute, Perry needs support against the liberals in Austin. I'll give him that.

Amen.... The 2014 senate race was a strategic blunder on behalf of us Texas conservatives. Our inability to find a strong candidate, and then coalesce around them is now going to haunt us in having this turd until Jan. 2021.

You're waiting for a long time where a train don't come if you are trying to gin up support for Perry.

As I said in my first post in this thread. I am "all in" for Cruz, but feel a moral obligation to help rescue who I think is an honorable man.

[JRandomFreeper]

That just means we have 6 years to get it right.

And I mean to.

I will support Perry against the thugs in Austin.

I will not support Perry for a presidential run (or dogcatcher, or anything else).

I would do the same if he was the Dem he started off as.

We've got a conservative governor incoming, with former AG Gregg Abbott.

Amen, and this latest libtard indictment on Perry is really an attempt at throwing political mud at Abbot. Wendy Davis is actively involved in this scheme. The Austin leftist mafia will string this out all the way to election day. This is just the initial strike. The next ones will be aimed directly at Abbot, IMO. We can expect a series of these litigious attacks over the next few months designed to associate Abbot with Perry/Dewhurst/Straus in order to diminish his popularity with voters.

[JRandomFreeper]

Won't work. Watch and see.

[TADSLOS]

No doubt, but they will try.

[JRandomFreeper]

I'm saying that pardons in Texas are rare as hen's teeth.

bump for later, thanks for the ping.

[JRandomFreeper]

So you aren't going to answer my question about what happens between initial intake and trial?

Are citizens generally required to give up their Constitutional rights to bond or bail out?

/johnny

[manc]

for crying out loud, never realized how much I play on your mind.

I;m just breezing through and replying posts, I have not got the time to read everything on the thread , but if you are so desperate to hear what I have to say then chill out .
I’ll get back to you later wen I have time alright.

[manc]

no

Happy I replied now?

[JRandomFreeper]

So, between initial intake and trial, there is no requirement for drug tests, giving up firearms, or any of that?

You are saying that's what most people don't have to do?

[thackney]

Because you don’t pardon folks that haven’t been convicted.
