You are more correct than you know. Open carry of long guns is not prohibited by State law, but Texas does not have preemption to prevent cities and towns from prohibiting open carry of long guns.
You do not see long guns carried openly for that reason, I believe. No one can know when they cross an invisible jurisdictional line if they have broken the law and may end up in jail.
It ammounts to a defacto ban on the open carry of long guns in most locations.

Have they said he was a TP yet?

I had to do it on crutches my junior year :-/

Not likely. Obama didn’t cause Charles Whitman to open fire from the top of the UT Tower, and he didn’t motivate Charles Manson, Charles Starkweather, Ted Bundy, Son of Sam, the Zodiac Killer, and on and on.

A TP?
An Indian tent?
What does that mean?

Still, this TAMU neighborhood rent arrears guy likely DID NOT have a real automatic. Semi probably, but the MSM don’t know butt from 3rd base.
