What the hell, Abbott? You trying to start a rebellion in Texas?

You’ll get one, doing crap like this.

He is only 1 of 27 people on the commission. He will be listened to politely and others will be offering their opinions which will be more acceptable.

I don’t know, I didn’t think that either, but apparently something is up with him. It’s like we can expect any Repubic to turn on us at anytime.

I’m not going to accept any gun control.

No way I am going to disarm a single thing in this lunatic infested society.

No. Way.

Agreed. Abbott has been great for Texas gun owners. When LTC became law, some apartment complexes put up the 30.06/30.07 signs, basically saying you couldn't own a firearm if you lived in the complex. Abbott recently signed a bill stating that if a person is renting an apartment, it is their home, and they can possess a firearm there, regardless of the landlord's opinion.

Under him, concealed carry on campus is legal. You wouldn't believe how crazy that made the college nutballs. I had one of the campus counselors tell me if I was disturbed or upset about campus carry, I could come to him for counseling. I had a .38 in my pocket at the time, yeah, legally.

Abbott is a mixed bag at the very best.

If you staked him over an ant hill, he would die in freakish pain before he would utter the words “civil forfeiture reform.”

Texas seems to get these people who are strong conservatives on some issues but far left on others.

Abbot is at least several steps up from Rick Perry, who granted Texas Muslims sharia courts (since reversed I believe) and attempted to place a ban on adding lanes on north/south limited access highways in exchange for foreign companies building a huge north/south highway which they would lease for practically nothing and run.

Maybe Abbot will get reigned in on this, or maybe not.

He can recommend whatever he wants, it still has to be voted on. The next session of the Legislature isn’t for another 17 months, so emotions will have cooled down.

My concerns will start to grow when, and if (still not sure if) the state will be run by Democrats, but even then, governing as hard-core Leftists still won’t be appreciated by the vast majority of Texans.

He also loves importing Californians and moslems. Abbott is a typical gop type... never turn your back on him.
