Open Carry Texas Tweet re: 30.06 penalties
Somebody posted a comment last night on their Facebook page mentioning that HB910 doesn't go into effect 1 Jan.
Re: Open Carry Texas Tweet re: 30.06 penalties
Actually it's a class C and a class A misdemeanor. Depends on how you handle being asked to leave.

Re: Open Carry Texas Tweet re: 30.06 penalties
The point of my original post was the OCT Tweet was incorrect and that with only a few exceptions the entirety of HB910 (including the penalty change) doesn't go into effect until 1 January. I think it's an unfortunate misunderstanding of the effective date of 30.06 amendment in HB910.The Wall wrote:Actually it's a class C and a class A misdemeanor.

This was also posted on the OCT Facebook page, but there was 1 comment last time I looked that corrected the misinterpretation.

The Wall,

Almost all of HB910 is effective January 1st, 2016. There are only two sections that effective September 1st, 2015, and 30.06/30.07 is not one of them.ralewis wrote:The point of my original post was the OCT Tweet was incorrect and that with only a few exceptions the entirety of HB910 (including the penalty change) doesn't go into effect until 1 January.

I am the poster of the correction to their facebook post. Their original Facebook post has since been deleted, along with all comments/replies, without correction or retraction. I would also like to point out I am banned from viewing their twitter posts for making similar corrections to their erroneous claims on twitter.ralewis wrote:Somebody posted a comment last night on their Facebook page mentioning that HB910 doesn't go into effect 1 Jan.

They haven't deleted the message from Twitter; it's still showing as active.

Re: Open Carry Texas Tweet re: 30.06 penalties
Just a quick update it looks like they have deleted the tweet. What I find truly funny, and very concerning, is they do not post or tweet a correction so that anyone who got the incorrect information can know better. It's almost like they want someone to get arrested.

Re: Open Carry Texas Tweet re: 30.06 penalties
Before the Facebook post & comments were deleted, there were a few irresponsible comments advocating totally blowing off the 30.06 signs because of the penalty reduction. I watched much of the hearings on HB910, specifically the introduction of the HB910 amendment with the 30.06 penalty reduction where it was cited that it was justified because of 20 years of responsibility by CHL holders. Its unfortunate that there is even a small percentage of CHL holders who fall below the standard of responsibility that was cited.G.A.

Is twitter another leftist bastion?
If so, why bother going there?

It's kind of like watching a train wreck in progress. Pages like OCT and some of the others are so hilariously bad that it's hard to look away once you know what's going on.Abraham wrote:Is twitter another leftist bastion?

And either OCT or Twitter has deleted the post.
