My original premise was not just a "single Stickland", but that if every RINO could have been replaced by "Stickand", 2A would have been much more successful this Session.

I stand by that belief. Point being, elections matter. Texans "could" have have refused to elect individuals who were lukewarm-at-best on 2A, with individuals who were unabashedly strong proponents of 2A.

Seems "RINO'ism" is spreading:

GOP FOLDS, STANDS WITH GABBY GIFFORDS FOR HANDGUN RESTRICTIONS

What Giffords & Co. describe as good news is really bad news for North Carolinians, who will now be forced to continue begging government officials for permission to buy a handgun for self-defense, unless the state senate stands up and fights for the freedom spurned by GOP reps.

So, in 2016, just think about the type of House you want. One full of Sticklands, or one again full of RINO's.

Who knows? Maybe Republican voters in Texas like the idea of purchase permits.

It's your choice.

And I certainly respect your right to a different opinion.

I would also inquire if this was Stickland, or some others who are not the friends they claim to be of the 2A: Amend Floor Amendment No. 9

Failed Attempt to Rebuke Lawmakers Riles Texas GOP

The Texas GOP has abandoned an effort to issue an official statement on the 84th legislative session, divided over a proposed resolution that initially would have accused individual lawmakers of standing in the way of gun rights legislation.

As proposed at the committee level, the resolution would have rebuked four Republican lawmakers...

The legislators named included House Speaker Joe Straus of San Antonio, Rep. Dennis Bonnen of Angleton, Rep. Larry Phillips of Sherman and Sen. Joan Huffman of Houston.

...Lawmakers "need to know they cannot do this and there is no consequence," said Bonnie Lugo, an SREC member from Senate District 13.

...There is a means of doing that which is called the next election."

Say what you want about Stickland, if the House were full of members like him instead of the RINOs, we would now have real campus carry (SB11 unamended) and perhaps constitutional carry, where we wouldn't be having silly arguments over the need for the Dutton/Huffines amendments and whether federal appellate cases from the 4th and 6th, but not the 5th, Circuit Court of Appeals apply the 4th Amendment to LEO with respect to OC.
