I am probly going to get alot of negitive feed back on this but hey thats what a discussion is all about right? Ok let me first off
say that I am a PRO GUN American and Texan, But I was sitting here reading the original 2nd Amendment of the U.S. Constitution and Reading Article Sect 23 of the Texas State Constitution and Frankly I will just say that Texas is going against our rights on carrying of arms. here is a copy of both articles from the constitutions. read it and then give me feed back cause if I read this correctly then it's time to get the Legislators to listen to us .
United States Constitution
Amendment II
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
Texas State Constitution
Sec. 23. RIGHT TO KEEP AND BEAR ARMS. Every citizen shall have the right to keep and bear arms in the lawful defense of himself or the State; but the Legislature shall have power, by law, to regulate the wearing of arms, with a view to prevent crime.
Now after reading again it is to my knowledge that Texas Constitution states that it is the Legislation to determine if we carry arms when In fact that over rides OUR U.S. Constitutional 2nd amendment right. now I know Texas can succeed from the U.S. at anytime but right now I'm Tired of the Government telling me what they think is the Best for me. I'm a Grown Man who ownes land pays Taxes Works and Ohhh Who pays the Legislators Saleries. SO Let me say Pass the Damn open carry Law Or get out of office and we will Vote people in to pass this bill and Make it Our Right which was taking from us around 1875 and let Us determine what is in the best intrest of Us... now I'm done ranting thanks for letting me vent now ready to read all the comments. :cuss:
