Re: OK passes open carry & TSRA planning for Texas '11 sessi

I wasn't going to respond, but this thread seems better than the usual "I'll never OC, so I don't care" responses. Starbucks isn't only "one", it's just the one that got picked on by the nutjobs at the VPC. Home Depot, Walmart, Best Buy, and another 1 or 2 that I can't recall hav...

Re: April 17th - Second Amendment march on the Capital.

SA-TX, Maybe you're kidding, but I highly doubt TSRA will have anything to do with this as it isn't specific to CHL laws. To those that think that this will be full of KKK, or Confederate flags, or crazy behavior in general, have you even been to to a Tea Party???? I have, and I'm hispanic. I wasn't...

Re: concealed carry with dress shirts

I use a shoulder holster, with an underarmour shirt underneath in the summer. I can disarm without issue, as I had to do when I voted on the constitutional amendments, by simply unbuttoning 1 button and taking it out that way...no untucking necessary. The biggest reason for shoulder holster for me t...

Re: Open Carry?

Thank you, you proved my point. I'd say we also restrict how we practice religion in this state, as Baptists are the majority. And let's go ahead and abolish alcohol, it just causes so many problems. Amazing....I didn't know the whole state of Texas was "metropolitan". Wow, what I've been...

Re: Open Carry?

I think it's now or never. From what I hear from people in general (pro-gun/on the fence/anti-gun), it's not that big a deal and it's becomming customary to assume that anyone may have a gun. The general public mindset is on our side more than it's been in decades. Also, I think what's on Charles' m...

Re: Road trip to Fla.

I've never been further than New Orleans, but I second the idea of going around New Orleans on your way. Nothing good to see there, or in Baton Rouge. You can get equally good cajun food in the small towns that surround those cities without having to fear the criminals in and out of uniform. Unfortu...

Re: Feedback: 2009 TexasCHLforum Day at PSC

It was all so great I can't imagine changing anything would make it better. The only solution to having longer instruction time while maximizing slots would be to make it a 2 day or 1 1/2 day event, but that's asking alot of all the gracious volunteers that make this possible to begin with, not to m...

Re: Federal judge rules police cannot detain people for OC

Or a Walmart in Louisiana... For those that don't frequent Louisiana, you can buy liquor at the same places we can only buy beer at in Texas, ie, grocery stores, gas stations, walmarts, etc. So in a walmart there you can bank, buy a gun, and a bottle of the hard stuff. Oh, and you can OC while you'r...

Re: Getting Open Carry legislation introduced ??

I've said it before and I'll say it again, I don't think getting OC passed (or 46.02 neutered) will happen without the support of the TSRA. One of OpenCarry.Org's rants was that TSRA wasn't getting onboard. What they were lacking was the understanding that TSRA decides what the goals for the session...

Re: Empty Holster in Secure Locations?

Wow, just wow. I hope I would have handled that just as even-headed, but I'm not sure. I might have pulled it out and given it to her and demanded that she show me how it is a weapon. I hope I wouldn't, but I've never been demonstrated such idiocy by an authority figure, not in person anyway. On the...
