Travis County is paid $100k per gun show for rental of that facility.

The county is trying to make the gun show owners enforce a law that doesn’t exist. The gun show owners don’t have the authority to do this.This is all smoke and mirrors anyway. The county got what they wanted. No gun show.

It is the same old thing. If you can’t make it illegal, regulate it to death. If you can’t regulate it to death, tax it to death.

Too bad someone doesn’t have rural property just outside of Austin that would allow the gun shows to use it. Being outside the city the the local PD could not stand at the door to "enforce the rules" and the S.O. could be denied entrance without a warrant.

Travis County would be out the revenue and wouldn’t it be great to get the gun grabbers all wound up?
