The links are fine - I clicked on them for you.
Now Andy has cooties.
Is there any known cure?
Range time. Lots and lots of range time.
I know that will break Andy's heart.

There should be a secondary level CHL that requires X amount of additional education and a better shooting score of Y to obtain. Anyone who gets the additional education and demonstrates the proficiency is now exempt from any and all prohibitions to concealed carry within the state of Texas.
How many school employees on campus and how many parents coming and going are going to be armed at any given time? Well, it's called concealed for a reason and anyone planning an act of violence must be prepared to face a potentially large number of those willing and able to stop them.
It's fine if you disagree. I can't force you to be correct.

I hate the concept of an enhanced LTC, but I'm convinced that's the only way we will be able to remove the remaining off-limits areas. I'm working on that for next session.

Special license for special people? More 2A permission slips?
I disagree. Remove prohibitions and infringements for everyone and see how the violence in gun free zones almost dsappears.
No infringements. Period.

If you can get that done I'm all for it and support it. I don't believe it's possible. I don't know if my idea is even possible but it would at least stand a chance of being heard.

With Bonnen in charge of the House and acting like some kind of dictator we'll be lucky to keep what we have, much less get any infringements removed.
The left lies about everything. Truth is a liberal value, and truth is a conservative value, but it has never been a left-wing value. People on the left say whatever advances their immediate agenda. Power is their moral lodestar; therefore, truth is always subservient to it. - Dennis Prager

The ballot box and soap box aren't doing much good. Doing things over and over again and expecting different results is what? Insanity.

Kristen Michelle Thompson, 38, abruptly resigned from her position at Pathways Elementary School on Friday after teachers reported that she made “threats to shoot up” the building in Hillsborough, the Orange County Sheriff’s Office announced Tuesday.
Another educator at the school also reported Thompson saying that any day she did not start shooting at the school was a “good day,” according to the arrest warrant.

Agreed that it shouldn't be necessary, but reality may dictate otherwise.
