Guess I should have put a barf alert in the header. Blood will be running in the streets. Right? You know, from those high noon shoot-outs that'll be commonplace all over the DFW metroplex.

Oh how I wish idiots such as Bob Sanders would do just a little investigatory work and see how states with open carry / constitutional carry are doing with their crime stats.

The author of this article is a moron. A liberal moonbat moron, who does not understand history nor the truth that a more armed society is a more polite and safer society.

There was a lot less lawlessness and fewer shoot-em-ups in the old west as everybody was packin’ and knew how to use their weapons. You didn’t ‘slap leather’ unless it was really called for. Jus’ sayin’.

I could envision “Bob Ray” trolling in childrens’ playgrounds and sniffing the seats of the swings and slides.

Why do I think the only western Bob Ray ever watched was Broke Back Mountain?

Maybe we could teach our kids about gun safety at a young age so they don’t grow up to be gun-terrified little panty-waists like this writer appears to be.

Underfunded schools?? Bullroar. When they spend millions on fubar stadiums, they can’t cry lack of cash.

Criminals already have guns. We know that's not safe.
Good people with guns will not make society any more unsafe.
On the contrary, making criminals think twice before they use their guns in a crime where others may be armed and return fire is a good thing.

while our underfunded public schools likely will languish.

Has anybody ever really seen an underfunded public school?

Bob Ray is the race baiter of Fort Worth. Always has been. He very seldom says any truth about the problems in his community.

Why doesn’t Bob Ray move to New York or California. That’s why the founders set up a federal system.

Out of curiosity, how many children were killed in “gallop by shootings” back in the wild west days?

Hmmmmm-the Old West days. Like when people took care of themselves, respected one another, had jobs, went to church and considered decency a virtue? Those Old West days?

It makes me wonder if that’s where we’re also headed with public education — back to the days of the one-room schoolhouse, and the townfolk waiting for the new schoolmarm to arrive on the afternoon stage.

Hyperbole. Kids were smarter then. Bob Ray Sanders proves it with this "opinion" piece.
