Re: Desired CHL Reform

How about some reform in recognition of the upcoming supreme court ruling on the McDonald case? They're going to rule for incorporation of the 2nd amendment. Surely we can use that ruling to leverage reform from our legislature. Why not start with 46.02?

If the federal government ever passed a law like this, how could it ever survive any standard of scrutiny in a court challenge?

Sec. 46.02. UNLAWFUL CARRYING WEAPONS. (a) A person commits an offense if he intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly carries on or about his person a handgun, illegal knife, or club.

If a federal law like that couldn't survive, how can Texas continue to get away with it after a ruling for incorporation?
