I called my state Rep. (D) and Sen. (R), both were on board with campus carry and parking lot bills. Next session I'll be phoning and writing letters, again.shootthesheet wrote:If we are going to get school carry, I mean every school and every event, we are going to have to allow the TSRA to do more or create a state group that has the power to move our laws in a positive direction. Mr. Cotton, I think it was Charles, posted that if we have to let our desires be known and he is right. Our best bet is to become a member of the TSRA and let them know where to push.
Senator Duncan ignored everyone except the "Urban Power Elites" and killed any chance of "Campus Carry" happening before the Democrats blocked the votes last session if I remember correctly. If he does not change his ways I will do all I can to get him replaced with someone that will move to restore our rights. Not that I am anyone but a angry employer of his. Changes in this area are up to US and will not happen if we do not Join now, let our voices be heard now and spend the money to get those who we know will work for us elected.
How exactly can we "allow the TSRA to do more....."? More of what? What are the TSRA specific goals right now?
If I recall correctly, Brian McCall (R) lacked the fortitude to push this through committee. Since he's decided not to run again.....
we need that Plano area he represented to make sure a pro 2A man is elected. (if my memory failed me, blame it on old age).
If Duncan is a problem, then the folks (Republicans) in Lubbock need to find someone better to replace him. I can't vote him out. They'll have to man-up and do something about it themselves.
