Return to “"Texas Gun Owners Divided on Best Aaproach to Legalizing OC”
Is it a "power" mindset? If I have a eargosplitten loudenblaster and he/she doesn't, I have the power. Cold this be what it's about at the LEO/guv'mint level? Say it ain't so.03Lightningrocks wrote:Now that situation makes me angry at the cops. That was an extreme over reaction on their part. Me thinks the cops anti gun sentiment showed through all to clearly. I could not believe they allowed their bloated ego's help them make the decision to actually arrest that guy.
One more thing. That fat cop said a person called in. Is there any proof of that?

I get to talking business on it and forget. I look up and am smack in the middle of a school zone. I have no desire to get busted for an OC gun crime because I cross over some City line from conservative to liberal. My bet is that the Austin area would be off limits. As well as Dallas. Plano would be a toss up. We have way to many yankees that won't go home.

It would be better IMO if TX and VA had carry laws like AZ or AK. Constitutional carry is very attractive to me. If you are legal to own you are legal to carry it however you wish. As far as being antagonistic and causing more 30.06 signs. I don't think we have anymore no gun signs than TX does. Truth be told I saw more 30.06 signs in my two weeks in San Antonio than I have seen in ten years in and around Richmond.

In our annual travels, we don't see any more "gun buster" signs in Oklahoma, Colorado, Wyoming, Idaho, Montana, New Mexico, the Dakotas and Arizona than we see 30.06 signs in Texas. Now then, what is the real problem? Maybe have statewide OC with metro preemption?
I'd appreciate better results then anecdotes from small states who's aggregate population is less then Harris County.

I know yall are kidding around, but really it is just as annoying as when they show the militia belonging to, cammo wearing, long bearded chain smoking 60 year old man as what all gun owners are like.
There it is boys and girls, ladies and gentlemen. IOE, mamabearCali is spot on correct.mamabearCali wrote:
