Re: Republican Convention: Cruz supporters planning trouble?
I wasn't playing any word games. Just pointing out the hypocrisy of criticizing Cruz for breaking his pledge as if Trump didn't also break his pledge.Charles L. Cotton wrote:Cruz gave his word, then didn't honor his pledge. Play all the word games you like, but that makes him a liar.

Re: Republican Convention: Cruz supporters planning trouble?
but I am incredibly proud of him [Ted Cruz]. Ditto. Cruz has been fighting for the 2nd Amendment and conservative values for longer than Trump has pretended to be a Republican. Kudos to Cruz for not endorsing a New York liberal con man. That Trump supporters on Twitter are upset that Cruz said &quo...

Re: Three professors sue UT to keep guns out of their classrooms
A hearing has been scheduled for early August, according to this article : Specifically, the professors seek the right to ban guns from their classrooms -- something the university has maintained would put it out of compliance with the new law.

Re: Three professors sue UT to keep guns out of their classrooms
From article in Dallas Observer : UCLA Law Professor and constitutional expert Eugene Volokh dismissed that idea in a conversation with the Observer last week. "The law doesn’t violate the First Amendment, because it isn’t at all targeted at restricting speech," he said in an email. "...

Re: Failed Attempt to Rebuke Lawmakers Riles Texas GOP
One comment often seen on the OCT sites is that "representatives from the NRA and TSRA were seen in the halls urging legislators to REMOVE the Dutton amendment!" What's the straight scoop on that perception? That strikes me as likely to be true, given that the bill would have died if the ...

Gov. Abbott on constitutional carry
From this Texas Monthly interview : Journalist: There was also talk among some members of so-called constitutional carry. Is that something you would be comfortable with? Gov. Abbott: What I said is that I would sign the most pro–Second Amendment bill that reached my desk. And that’s exactly what I’...

Police, lawyers decry 'unknowns' of open carry law
Police, lawyers decry 'unknowns' of open carry law Texas isn't Oklahoma. That's true for barbecue. That's true for country music. And it's true, law enforcement and legal experts say, for open carry, the new law that will let licensed gun owners in Texas publicly tote their pistols come January. St...

Re: Gov. Abbott to sign HB910 and SB11 tomorrow
The signing was live-streamed . You can watch a recording but you'll need Android or iPhone. What on earth was Abbott thinking speaking positively of Reagan at this event? Is he really unaware that Reagan is the one who banned Open Carry in California ? There’s no reason why on the street today a ci...
