I think that we forget that it took many sessions to get where we are with CHL and it may take many sessions to get where we want to be. But one thing has held true throughout, the all or nothing approach has never worked in our favor.
In my opinion, if we have a majority of Republicans in both sides of the Texas legislature, and they won't pass a bill that contains an amendment articulating and codifying a known 4th amendment issue; then we have some of the wrong R's in office.
And maybe that is the case....... but, that is the legislature we have to work with. And with all due respect, you're still willing to sacrifice HB 910 because it's not ideologically pure enough, and then gamble that next session, after the bad taste left in legislators mouths from this session, that you can get an ideologically pure bill passed then? That's just not a realistic appraisal.
:iagree:

Thirty-four years in Field Artillery gives me a firm understanding of the concept of "close enough". 910 without Dutton/Huffines is close enough. At this point, all else is a bridge too far.
