Gov. Greg Abbotts visit to a shooting range to sign a bill into law got big attention when he took some target practice and made a crack about journalists. Im going to carry this around in case I see any reporters, Abbott said with a grin as he joked with journalists covering the event, after he was given his target sheet. There was little attention paid to the remark at The Range in South Austin, where Abbott posed for a photograph.

When the Ship of State rights itself the only question that will remain is who will be led up the steps of the Gallows first, the Journalists or the Politicians.

Well, if the Governor isn’t able to Body Slam them, at least he can run them over.

His meaning was clear.
If a reporter approaches him, he would hold the target sheet against his body and say “are you going to target me?”
That's my story and I'm sticking to it...
