Texas weighs allowing open carry of handguns
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) -- Long depicted as the rootin'-tootin' capital of American gun culture, Texas is one of the few states with an outright ban on the open carry of handguns.
That could change in 2015, with the Republican-dominated Legislature and Gov.-elect Greg Abbott expected to push for expanded gun rights.
"If open carry is good enough for Massachusetts, it's good enough for the state of Texas," Abbott said the day after his election last month.
I'm so happy my elected mommies and daddies will now allow me to carry a tool around.
It's not really my bag to be strapped openly but if somebody wants to I want them to be able to.
Now if they really want to impress me they would get rid of CHL's.A permission slip for anything chafes me pretty good.
Maybe we should make our betters take a course on the Constitution before being allowed to legislate.
We could give them a cute little card to keep in their wallets.
Good thing they got all that freedom and liberty in Texas.
