. Conservative judges apparently gave us the Ruling in Atwater (TX CASE) where a mother and her kids were not wearing seatbelts. She gets taken to jail. As a result of conservative ruling in this SCOTUS case cops can now arrest for throwing bubblegum out of a car window. it was a BAD THING!


It sure the hell was! It happened where I live.

O’Connor sealed it saying almost literally Well This Is Bad Law But The Consequences Of Turning It Over Would Cause Too Much Chaos for Law Enforcement Nationwide.

Your fear of firearms has nothing to do with my freedom.

I’m not sure I want to go to the shoot if the cops are going to steal our guns from us.

You won't be carrying openly, so don't have anything to worry about. This is one podunk town with a Sheriff who's too full of himself to know (or care) how the open carry law works in this state. He'll soon be straightened out.

Who would you recommend voting for Lt. Governor and AG in the upcoming primary?

Anybody but Dewhurst for Lt. Gov. and I'll probably vote for Paxton for AG. I'm not fully decided on the AG slot.

Dewhurst is running again, and it doesn't matter, as long as he doesn't get 50%+1. Staples would be fine to be in a run off against him. I thought Patterson would be, but Patterson has been less than responsive to some questions.

I really, really want Dewhurst gone.

TX Gov
Declined
David Dewhurst, Lieutenant Governor (running for re-election) --------
I had forgotten he returned to fighting to keep his own job. Call off the airstrike, if you please.

“What the hell is going on in Texas these days? Are the “steers” outnumbered now?”

There are some groups that are pushing showing their rifles on their backs in public in order to show it is legal to do so. People get upset about that due to the various shootings around the country and they don’t understand it is okay to have those rifles in public in Texas.

Police aren’t used to that behavior, either, and they over-react. They know they would be in trouble if there was a shooting and they “let” it happen by not taking those weapons. This is all get sorted out after both the public and the police get acclimated to rifle wearing.

Todd Staples for Lt. Gov. I know him, worked in one of his campaigns and he is a horse/gun man.

Please ad me to your ping list. I had a TE list way back when, but lost it when I retired. Thanks.

I remember that case. The biggest mistake was that she questioned the LVPD as she was getting out of her vehicle. Barney Fife wannbees and that officer was "let go".

I will be voting for Todd Staples. He seems to “fit the bill” in every way.

What’s wrong with carrying a rifle around?

I’d carry one all the time if it was convenient. Targets of opportunity always pop up. For example, today I saw 3 coyotes and 1 wolf and a pile of elk. A rifle is way better than a handgun in almost any situation.

"If you are carrying a rifle around, I am going to think you are nuts".

Is that a fact? I think you are nuts for saying that around here where most of us still believe in the constitution. Hope you get zotted, have a nice day.
