Re: NRA endorses Texas Open Carry
I don't think to support the idea means they have to physically do anything. They could support it (in my opinion) with a simple public statement, saying that they support the idea.
Of course it would be nice if they would take some steps to bring it to the attention of their membership & see if they also support the idea as well, but I would be perfectly happy with just a written statement as NRA appears to have done.
I support the idea of open carry, even if all I do is generally spread the word to people that I know. Well, I also signed the petition. On the same token, I wouldn't expect anyone to do anything more than what I have done. I do appreciate what many others have done to push the idea though. I just can't see supporting an organization that is not interested in doing at least what I have done, which I admit is very little. My impression of TSRA's unwillingness to state that they support the idea of open carry, leads me to believe that they are outright against it, and I'm sure many others perceive the same thing, including legislators. So not only are they not supporting it, they appear to be working against it.
I may be completely wrong in my thinking, and if so I do apologize. That is just the way I see it.
