I think your bluetooth ear piece saves your bacon.. I believe hands-free devices are excluded.

Re: "Texas Gun Owners Divided on Best Aaproach to Legalizing
Just curious, in that context - and that context alone that an armed public keeps a corrupt government at bay, isn't it out of date? There was a time when governments would line up armies of solders and have them shoot at each other. The militia arms were not necessarily at a tactical disadvantage. These days, what is a government going to do when facing armed insurgents? Do we deploy a group of soldiers to line up and take pot-shots at the insurgents? No... We bomb them via a remote vehicle while sitting in a chair halfway around the world. There is no armed militia in the world that has a chance against an oppressive government armed with modern weapons.rotor wrote: There is so much more to the meaning of the 2nd amendment than just concealed carry and self defense. This is how we maintain liberty. This is why we don't want our firearms registered. I know I am preaching to the choir but there is so much more to the 2nd amendment.
I suppose the "Red Dawn" scenario might have some validity, but as a tool for keeping our own government thinking twice about military success? No way...
I'm in for concealed carry and self defense. I don't want to change the 2nd amendment. I just think that when drafted, the drafters had no means to see this far into the future.
End of off topic...
