Re: General 2015 Legislative Session Discussion

Just read where CJ and his hooligans are going to push for the removal of the license requirement on HB910; correct me if I'm wrong but that's the whole reason why this bill has progressed versus HB195.

CJ if you're on here, I beg and implore you and your group not to foul this up for the rest of us. Better yet don't even be in Austin this day.

Re: General 2015 Legislative Session Discussion

With all this Open Carry and Campus carry talk....I hope that other vitally important pro gun bills are not being overshadowed. Specifically HB 413, 422, 695, 805 and SB 311 and 348.

SB 17 Estes
Relating to the authority of a person who is licensed to carry a handgun to openly carry a holstered handgun; creating a criminal offense; providing penalties.

Bills added after last posting:
SB 17

Bills deleted after last posting:
SB 346
I noticed this myself, what does this mean? I understand the hearing aspect, but why was it assigned a new bill number?

Re: General 2015 Legislative Session Discussion

I've noticed a news outlets are referencing a piece done in the Texas Tribune, reporting Lt. Gov. Patrick has gone on record saying open carry is not a priority of this legislature and he further adds he doesn't believe there's enough support for it.

Any word on a bill that would drop the "Gun Free" zones for CHL holders?

We can't change the federal "Gun Free School Zone" law, but CHL's are exempt from it anyway. The Texas "Weapon Free School Zone" law is not a stand alone crime. It just increases the penalty for commission of a crime within the zone. Since CHL's can carry handguns, then it has no impact on us unless we commit another crime while armed.

Charles,

I believe that Gari meant bills that would remove 46.035.
I think you're right. Yes, a bill to remove off-limits areas will be filed in the House and Senate.

Chas.
Yes, let me clarify...I mean the "off limits zones" as provided under 46.035. I also see a bill has already been introduced for this.
