I had a conversation with someone today while getting my hair cut, and it involved them stating that if someone tried that at a baseball game in Texas, they would have hundreds of guns pointed back at them. I had to inform them the sad news that in reality they would not. Even if the event was not a professional sports game, no doubt the venue would be posted because: it is a school, because school children visit sometimes, because the stadium is owned by the county or city and has an office for the local judge, because it is wrongly posted 51 percent, etc. My point was that our Texas government does not trust private citizens to carry guns...or else why have the restrictions? You either believe we are responsible adults or you don't.

I have decided to remove the gray area when I form an opinion of someone - you either support law abiding citizens carrying guns - or you don't. If you want us to have a license - that's fine - but don't treat us like idiots or criminals by putting restrictions on where we can carry. If you don't support that, you won't get my vote in the future - period. That goes for local government officials as well as State and Federal elected representatives. If that means I don't have a candidate to vote for - so be it. I honestly think until enough of us decide we want true Republicans elected, we will continue to get what we have now because they know they only have to be a little more "pro 2A" than the other candidates running for office.

Before you think I have done nothing to help our cause - I am directly responsible for 4 local governments around here removing signs and training their staff to know the law - even law enforcement who should have known the law already.

Yes, I know I will catch a lot of grief for this - no problem and I won't take it too personal :-)
