HOUSTON - A group of mothers protested outside of the entrance to the Houston Zoo Saturday after a new rule states guns are no longer banned at the zoo.
About 50 people protested the fact that those legally carrying guns can now bring them into the family favorite destination.
The demonstrators are part of a group called Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense.

They simply want to deprive everyone of their RKBA.
That's a farly pathetic looking bunch. (Wait 'til they hear about Trump's 2nd Amendment position paper!)
Sad when a zoo is more civilized and respectful of people’s rights than many U.S. cities.
Those NRA and Concealed Carry nuts have to be prevented from coming into the zoo and shooting the animals.
Gee, only 50. Wow!
“Those NRA and Concealed Carry nuts have to be prevented from coming into the zoo and shooting the animals.”
And here all along I thought zoos were supposed to be a safari buffet for NRA and Concealed Carry nuts.
Guns were never banned at the zoo. The only ones who were banned from carrying guns at the zoo were people who give a damn about obeying the law. People who do not give a damn about obeying the law have always been free to carry guns there.
Do you really feel safer in a public area where the only ones carrying guns are people who do not give a damn about obeying the law? Undoubtedly people who are carrying guns and who do not give a damn about obeying the law feel a lot safer knowing that their potential victims are unarmed.
Awesome, now you can go to the Zoo in Houston and not have to worry about being a statistic.
Looks like a ~Yeb! rally.
They KNOW that they, themselves, could not be trusted with a deadly weapon.
Since they are oh-so-much-better than anyone else, it's obvious that no one should be trusted with one.
Unless they are a dispassionate agent of the State, of course...
50?
Are they counting the two year olds who have not a clue as to what is going on there?
maybe the zoo can figure out how to feed these anti-American pansies to the lions?
Problem solved!
These MOMS who think the fact that they are MOMS makes their opinion more valid that non-moms drive me nuts.
(And I’m a mother)

To use kids for this is just wrong.
“maybe this brain washed little kid should watch Nicaraguan machete man take out 6 armed cops before believing if no one had a gun he would be safe.”
I hadn’t heard of that one, so I had to look it up. All I can say is WOW! The guy with the knife sure covered a lot of ground going after all those cops. The one cop was even armed with an AK! The others must have been carrying .38’s or 9mm because after they finally succeeded in shooting him in the chest he still didn’t die.
The action starts around the 6 and a half minute mark if you want to skip listening to the news report:
Looking at the picture, 50 seems more like 15.
The zoo has a new exhibit.
It is called “Sitting Ducks”
