You folks need to back off. We haven’t done anything illegal with our weapons. Criminals have and you don’t advocate severe punishment or death for them. Stay out of Texas.
Virginia is fully blue. Their impact was negligible. I hope they waste money in Texas.
Not sure how they’re going to do that here in Texas. Even with the bad blood between Cruz and Trump in 2016, and the fact that Cruz was a home-boy, and the fact that what Trump had played both sides in NYC so people had nothing beyond his promises as president, Trump still won the state by 9 points.
Beyond that, we don’t have initiatives like California, mob rule won’t work for them, and our state laws on guns preempt any wise-ass locals trying to ‘make a statement’.
So, if the Left wants to play ball here, they are MORE THAN WELCOME to dump their money and learn about Texas the expensive way!
Not complying with whatever they pass in Richmond.
The communists just keep on pushing and pushing....at what point will there be any “push back”?
“ So, if the Left wants to play ball here, they are MORE THAN WELCOME to dump their money and learn about Texas the expensive way!”
Someday in the not far off future, californians will outnumber texans in texas
“...You folks need to back off. We haven’t done anything illegal with our weapons. Criminals have and you don’t advocate severe punishment or death for them. Stay out of Texas....”
Their “agenda” has nothing to do with crime or punishment of crime. It has everything to do about disarming an entire population such that it cannot defend itself from the full-blown communist onslaught that will be forced down their throat once they’re totally disarmed.
““push back”?” In what form are you thinking of?
We've lost a good portion of our freedoms and freedom of expression, so I would say *never*.
Why don’t conservative States start putting clearly worded and unambiguous Constitutional Amendments in their State Constitutions now, regarding the RKBA.
Here is what Texas says now:
Sec. 23. RIGHT TO KEEP AND BEAR ARMS. Every citizen shall have the right to keep and bear arms in the lawful defense of himself or the State; but the Legislature shall have power, by law, to regulate the wearing of arms, with a view to prevent crime.
That last sentence needs to be removed, YESTERDAY.
How about this: Sec. 23. RIGHT TO KEEP AND BEAR ARMS. Every citizen shall have the right to keep and bear arms, wherever such person may be present in the State, in the lawful defense of himself or the State.
Good for you - I don’t comply with what they passed in my state either. It’s all unenforceable anyway.
We could really strengthen the State provisions:

Take a look at Missouri.
Sounds good!
The group spent more than $1 million on TV ads in Houston in 2018, supporting U.S. Rep. Lizzie Fletcher, a Democrat who unseated longtime Republican Congressman John Culberson. The ads went after Culberson for taking money from the NRA and voting for weaker gun laws.”
That’s a ton of money for one seat in Congress and reeks of campaign spending corruption that Democrats use to unseat Republicans.
“Someday in the not far off future, californians will outnumber texans in texas”
There was a recent study on that and they found that most of the people who left California are Republicans...maybe not Texas-style Republicans, but definitely not flaming Leftists. It’s not clear that they’re going to change much here.
Thanks for the list.
What will flip Texas is amnesty that Cornyn and Graham will introduce in Jan. 2021 after they are re-elected.
