Re: Pushing the envelope on Campus Carry?

Let us take care not to assume that the regents at UT are of the same calibre as those at A&M.

Re: Schools and 30.06 signs in the parking lot - Actually enforceable?

And THAT is why I studied physics and not law. You guys amaze me. Interesting, George. That raises a point which I have also found to be interesting, if trivial in the context of this thread.

Re: Another example of why body cams are needed.

Be sure you look at the sign on the rear of the stopped vehicle. I would say that Officer Wheeler "came and took it." Such a sign invites a stop and search of the vehicle, probable cause or reasonable suspicion notwithstanding. These can usually be manufactured after the fact. Jim A "...
