At this point I submit that the OCT folks are about as transparent as the Obama regime and are enjoying our efforts to try and discuss this. As they like that SOP--same as the non-transparent liberals--then that is it how they will be known. It is well known that those on the far extremes are closer together than one would ever imagine. OCT & the Progressive Liberals are not too far apart in how they operate.

Few "issues" for Constitutional Carry in Texas.
1) Texas is border state and major running corridor for drug trafficking.
2) Too many illegal residents.
3) Too many felons out of jail
4) Too many white, black, and latino gangs.

If you let those carry concealed or unconcealed with no ID or CHL required, you remove a tool from the hands of the LEOs.

I believe Beiruty points out an important issue that will have significant implications to the good guy's safety.

Thanks for the three points that describe the position of NRA/TSRA. What is the basic parameters of "constitutional carry" and why is it the ultimate goal? Likely when I know what it means the value will be obvious. Why is OC in a 30.06 area a step backward for us CHL's.

Sorry if those answers are somewhere as I did not find them.

Charles: I fully agree. From my perspective if a recognized OC spokesperson states a clear platform then I can decide if I support them. If they do nothing to clarify the confusing messages todate then they must have something to hide and that is not the kind of effort/cause I will support. The various folks in that effort should realize they already have an uphill battle, at least with me, as they are part of a group that is providing ammunition to the anti-gunners and thereby jeopardizing my rights to defend my family. I will not respond well to such irresponsible actions and soon will have to take a visible position against them.
