Texas Legislate meets every two years for a reason.

Bingo! We have a winner. We are safest when the legislature is not in session.

The “government” dropped the ball on this fiasco on numerous occasions.

How is another “law” going to prevent that?

Nevarez also characterized Texas’s open carry law as an “oddity” that should be repealed, arguing that only law enforcement personnel should be able to carry long rifles out in the open.

Well, OK then.

Now we know what "gets your attention" so to speak.

Thanks!

The gun grabbers really needed a “mass shooting” in Texas to give their anti-gun bull**** a kick in the ass. I believe that Arizona will be next. The commie ‘RATS are probably already setting one up. Watch for it.

The “open carry is an oddity” remark is in itself an oddity. If we change the law it should be for Constitutional carry. As a RTC holder, since open carry became legal, I have yet to see ONE non law enforcement person carry openly. The reason is probably because the vast majority of licensees believe their advantage is always carrying concealed, unless hunting, on your own property, etc.

If the left-wing zealots get in power and try to limit gun rights in the future, there will be a REAL revolution.

“Some Texas state lawmakers call for stricter gun laws after church shooting”

This headline is inaccurate. It should read: Some Mexicans posing as Texas State Lawmakers call for stricter gun laws after church shooting!”

“If any other consumer product resulted in a fraction of the injuries and deaths [that guns do],” Collier said, “we would be scrambling to find solutions.”

Hey Mr. Brilliance, have you ever heard of cars, knives, baseball bats?

Mexican legislators who want to take guns out of home owners’ hands for obvious reasons.

The only strict gun law that the legislature should be considering is how to get more guns into the hands of church goers.

Thanks for That Texas Mom!
God bless TEXAS!

I lived in Midland for three years
And liked it.
I may move East one more time
But I’ll probably stop in
Cochise County ARIZONA.

Gun laws are pretty good in AZ.
