New to the forum, Hi everyone.
So, the only viable plan is to get a court case? Can you just file a suit, or do you have to show harm from the law first, ie, get arrested? Anyone from the TSRA or GOA or SAF side organizing anything on this?
I dunno, it strikes me a bit odd that it's not worth even trying to bring awareness and votes to bear here.
I recall Ann Richardson's Veto of the CCW law being a significant contributing factor in her re-election bid. Austin may be liberal hippie town, but the lawmakers come from the hill country and west texas and the piney woods. I promise you this, they absolutely will not take action on this if the citizens don't take action on lettin' them know. (I've since moved to WA state and OC when I want to or I'd sure spend a saturday on the steps of the capitol.)
There was a LOT of noise made before and during the last legislative session 2 years ago. As I recall, we couldn't even find someone willing to sponsor a bill calling for opencarry. If nothing happens this year(as I suspect), there should be some sort of lawsuit filed. What that would be, I have no idea.
