Welcome to Texas then. Buy some weapons, DON'T vote democrat, get a hat, and enjoy ... but be prepared to study BBQ for about 10 years before offering any critiques.
I like Texas and was there with the YAF in 1984 for the Republican Convention. I had a wonderful time, the gentleman were extremely well mannered but the heat did me in: I had a heat stroke attack and thought that was the end for me. The Texas heat is brutal. I will vote for the party that best preserves Western Civilization. As for the part on firearms, this New Yorker, only went to a firing range once and I tried but when I fired a handgun, the sound almost gave me a heart-attack. Please no laughter, it is just that I did not grow up in a hunting or firearms culture. Other than the one time experience on the firing range, the only exposure to hunting and firearms were shows on television./Just Asking - seoul62.......
