Re: HB 1463--exempting elected officials from parts of 46.03

Let's suppose there was a bill that said
SECTION 1. Section 46.035(h-1), Penal Code, is amended to read as follows:
(h-1) It is a defense to prosecution under Subsections (b)(1), (2), and (4)-(6), and (c) that at the time of the commission of the offense, the actor was not:
(1) a statewide elected official; or
(2) a member of the legislature.

SECTION 2. Section 46.035, Penal Code, is amended by adding Subsection (h-2) to read as follows:
(h-2) It is a defense to prosecution under Subsections (b)(1), (2), and (4)-(6), and (c)
that at the time of the commission of the offense, the actor was a person who, on September 1, 2011,
was not serving as a member of the legislature.


Do you think the legislature would support that? Why or why not?

What's the chance campus carry and parking lots survive the bill assassins in the calendar committee?

And what, if any, ground have we gained from LEOSA?
Nothing if you're one of the the "little people" who pay the bills for the government, but have less rights than the "public servants" who think they're the public's masters. That's why the LEOSA note in the bio for Roy Innis doesn't do much to motivate me to vote for him. Quite the opposite.
