[I want the USA back]

Good. Too bad the other pos got away.

Now if stricter gun laws had been in place, this ne... oh wait nevermind. /sarc

Q: Can I strap a gun on my hip in Texas?

A: No, with some exceptions. Open carry is not legal in Texas until January 1st, 2016, but you may open carry on your own property, in the commission of a sporting activity (competition, shooting ranges, etc.), and while engaged in hunting.

Moot point, the date in question has passed.

[JimRed]

That means any adult Idahoan, who does not have any criminal or mental restrictions, will be able to Conceal Carry without a permit of any kind inside or outside city limits across the state,

Close to Constitutional as any, but the Constitution does not bar freed felons or crazies from the recognized right. Anyone who should not be armed should not be running around loose.

[JimRed]

Two possibilities: The guy is clueless, or the guy knows what he is doing.

Sitting there thinking "Make my day"?

"Hey, Charlie, cleanup in the parking lot."

[nitzy]

The dead guy was just starting to turn his life around too.

He planned on enrolling in college this spring and had indicated he was going to marry the mother of his children. He was an aspiring musician who was looking forward to a bright future in the music industry before senselessly being gunned down.

[Popman]

Not really. In TX, open carry of a handgun is only authorized if you have a concealed carry permit (outside of certain situations - private property, hunting, etc...). You can't just strap one on. It's backward neighbor, New Mexico, allows open carry, subject to some limitations, but no permit required.

[Sir_Ed]

Will it delimited to Idahoans only?

Thanks!

[Big Red Badger]

God Bless Texas !

We still have a GOPe type running our State House (a holdover of Governor Perry), a guy much like Paul Ryan. Unless we can get him out of office, we’re stuck being a squishy state, even with a SOLID conservative majority.

Thank You.
