NEWS FLASH and SAVE THE DATE: The next TX legislative hearing on gun issues is Austin, Feb. 26 (Wed.) 10am (likely all day)

This is DIFFERENT than the other hearings, y'all!

1. Instead of being the select committee set up by

...and...

2. Instead of being chaired by Joan Huffman (who has been VERY UNFRIENDLY to liberty and gun rights), it is chaired by Sen. Bryan Hughes, who is MUCH more in tune with the right to keep and bear arms.

...and...

3. Instead of being about gun control ideas, it is a POSITIVE 2A-friendly charge:

~ "Examine Second Amendment legislation passed since the 84th Legislative Session including open carry, campus carry, and lowering the license to carry fee.

~ Determine the impact these laws have made on furthering and protecting Second Amendment rights.

~ Make recommendations that may further protect and enhance Texans' Second Amendment right to bear arms."

We've got a lot of pretty articulate polis that are pushing for ideas like Constitutional Carry and the like. With Abbott and Patrick toying around with the idea of ERPOs and "universal background checks", I found it fitting to respond to Texans for Greg Abbott's calls for more money, with the line: "Y'all ain't getting shit from me if you're the sort that'd infringe on my rights." -- to paraphrase a bit.

It seems possible to me for TX to be a constitutional carry state. Now ain't the time to be a pussy about it, though.

If you've got something to say, this is a pretty good time to speak up.

I guess I need to provide more information or something in the OP. Or maybe the title sucks. Figured with what just went down in VA we'd have a better response in TX.

Or maybe most Texans are like @wade2big?
