Re: OCT Pro-Gun or Pro-Gun Control?
The NRA has a great record for hunting rights.. but for open carry the record is (read Forum rules) poor.. Scratch that, doesn't rate that high.
My first 'out of favor' was a couple years ago, I had sent $500 to the NRA during the gun crazy (after the school).. I got invited to a NRA dinner thing in Dallas. Sounded neat, went, and talked with many like minded members.. Talked briefly with one of the head honcho's about open carry, and he flat our said the NRA doesn't care about that.
I was like.. But the second amendment.. and he just blew it off as a non-issue..
TSRA hasn't been much better, and for that matter neither has anyone else. Other than a handful of people in the whole state each term no one has said boo about open carry. You talk with them and they all agree, but no one says anything. This is the only time it has been different. I'm not a member of OCT, never been to a rally (don't really like the idea of carrying a rifle down main street) but they get results. OCT is the ONLY reason we are this far. I do support 2AF, but between the NRA and OCT I'd lean OCT.
As for you not speaking for the NRA or TSRA, your like one of the big dogs in both, right? Isn't that like saying Susan Rice doesn't speak for the White House?

Re: OCT Pro-Gun or Pro-Gun Control?
Stupidity like this is why I haven't re-uped with the NRA. Claiming OCT is pro gun control because they are fine with a more basic sign?? what the heck?
Speaking as a CHL holder, if a business has a sign that is not proper 30.06, I STILL DO NOT VISIT THAT BUSINESS.
I view any victim rich zone sign as a notice they do not want my money. Period.
AMC Firewheel in Garland is a prime example. They have 30.06 printed correct size on (1) total door of the 12+ and it is all the way on the ground.
I might have visited it a few times before I even saw it because it is basically invisible unless you happen to look down going in THAT ONE DOOR.
Do I visit AMC Firewheel armed or disarmed? How about not at all any more. I don't care the sign is not to code. They are stating they do not want my money. I won't give it to them.
NOTE - Friend says it is on 2 total doors now.. of the more than 12.
