Re: Open Carry Texas Plans Protest at DPS Headquarters

As a Lifetime member of the NRA, and a member of the TSRA I wish either of them would show some real leadership on the OC issue.

I would be willing to bet a good steak dinner that if you took a cross section of folks at these protest you would end up with:

10ish% the "look at me" crowd/ troublemakers
10ish% the frustrated that we can't even get a real bill to the floor to be voted on.
80ish% beleive in OC and just don't have any other outlet to support it.

Just an opinion...

Apples and Oranges. Progress is being made with the legislative body in Texas related to gun rights. In fact if it weren't for the OC radicals we might already have OC.

Could you outline that progress? Not a jab, but other than a few statements by folks who may one day represent us I have seen no progress.
