Well not quite. As I've heard her say, in person, she left the gun in the vehicle (a CAR In Copperrus Cove Texas, surely you jest. :) ) because she was afraid of getting *caught* disobeying the law. It was just as illegal to have it in the glove box or console of her vehicle as it would have been in her purse, but the chances of getting caught, for an attractive Red Headed Lady chiropractor, with it in her vehicle in Central Texas were slim. Not so a firearm in a purse, perhaps especially that of an atrractive young unmarried lady (at the time)
So she skirted the law, and her parents, and others, are dead because she didn't want to risk losing her license to practice her profession.
Although I didn't at the time, I now live in Killeen, and the Lubys is now a Chinese restaurant. I like Chinese, but I can't bring myself to go in to that one.
Sadly she is no longer a Texas State representative. I think she'd done what she set out to do, and now has significant family obligations. A coworker took his CHL renewal class with her husband.
