Texas lawmakers have steadily expanded the right to carry weapons in public places, and a law effective Sept. 1 will allow adults to openly carry large knives and swords. Soon, Texans will be sporting 12-inch Bowie knives strapped to their hips and displaying daggers on their desks.

It's legal under existing law to display a dagger on your desk on your private property. The new law legalizes possession in public (with some limited exceptions).

Leftists always seem to have trouble differentiating between private and public property. It's as if they're closeted communists...

Yeah, I fully expect most business owners to be carrying sabers, or kantanas, soon.

Just another snowflake, who just can't stand the fact that all of their anti-gun rhetoric, is falling on deaf ears, and trying to stir up an issue that is not there. I guess he would feel safer, in a convenience store at 3 am with bars on the widows, and 30.06, and 30.07 signs posted, you know to prevent crime, and give a good impression to customers.

I agree with Charles, this is a hack piece talking about an non-existent issue. The writer, even had to go back a "few years" to find one example. and none since.

If I had a repair shop in Houston, I would probably not only have a revolver, but a shotgun, AR, and a few other things to protect myself.

The only message being sent, by carrying a gun in your business, is "Mr criminal, you may want to ply your trade elsewhere"

If the writer, is that traumatized, perhaps he should should stay in his safe space and order everything on line.
