That they found a loophole large enough to drive a train through isn't their fault, it's the legislature's. Their impetus in finding a creative solution also comes from the legislature - this isn't the "Utah problem", the "Florida problem", or the "Virginia problem". . . it's the "TEXAS PROBLEM"!
Their actions will certainly have a negative impact on the rest of us, but I choose not to blame them for the repercussions. Let's aim our venom at the ones responsible for the root cause and spend our energy there.
The Texas CHL is too expensive. It's too restrictive. It's too bureaucratic. It's too slow.
It is a TEXAS problem created by the Texas legislature. Lowering the price and reducing the bureaucratic hoops is the real solution to the problem. The proposal to meddle in reciprocity is as smart as Obama's economic policy.
