Sorry, we're in Texas, but you can dream the impossible dream, fight the unbeatable foe,
bear with unbearable sorrow, to run where the brave dare not go...

Ah, get over it.

You're in Texas and we have 30.06/30.07.

Live with it or move.

Some people would have also said that Texas would have never had open carry, we're fighting the unbeatable foe, etc. Or in 1993 we would have never had concealed carry with the current governor especially how she said she would never sign a concealed carry law. Or that we would have never had campus carry. If the Texas legislators and people had followed your advice then we would never have concealed carry in Texas. This forum might not even exist right now. But look where we are now. In 2017 it could be time for a clean up bill to remove many prohibited locations where we can carry and possibly a 30.06 removal could be included. I'm not sure how it's gonna happen. I'm not sure if Senator Birdwell is going to support such a bill especially with the way he supports private property rights. It would probably have to be amended on to the bill in the House. It would be great however to remove racetracks, 51% locations, colleges' ability to create gun free zones, and other schools and maybe other banned carry places from where we can't carry.

Sometimes is not all the time, and we make choices all the time about where to shop. Allowing me to carry lawfully is apart of that decision making process.
