Then by your standard, you are acting like Sarah Brady by making calls against a bill that employees need. Remember, no one has done anything to prevent open-carry from passing because there is no bill!!!!! But if you are serious, you are trying to harm the employer parking lot bill because of a philosophical dispute? And you expect people to support open-carry?Captain Matt wrote:In fact, the Brady-style emotions against keeping and bearing arms openly has convinced me to make a few calls in support of the property rights of employers.
The attitude you promote is why I doubt open-carry will every garner significant support in Texas.
Chas.
Not that you need my concurrence but you get it anyway. Some of these Open Carry folk have a "my way or the highway" mindset and that's counterproductive and sad to say the least. I've also noticed that, with some OC proponents, the 1st Amendment is sacrosanct until a question on the application of the 2nd Amendment is raised. Then cries of heresy, etc. are lofted to the high heavens.
Oh well, all's well that ends well.
