Re: Texas AG Ken Paxton impeachment
i and several others in my local group have been in touch with Ben Bumgartner, our House rep who voted in favor of the impeachment. I called his office along with scores of others, asking for him to vote against impeachment. He didn't. And that wasn't surprising. For the recent election where Rep B...

Re: Empty chamber carry?
A better question to the empty chamber carry proponents is WHY? What purpose does it serve? ... Just my humble but lengthy opinion. :mrgreen: Thank you for a very detailed and informative response. I have no idea why anyone would choose to carry a semi handgun and leave it unloaded (aka without a r...

Re: Restaurant with bar section
This has been a problem since the 51% rules was created by the legislature. The problem is that the law only allows one license or permit at any single location at any time. It defines the premises as everything including the parking lot. So if a vendor in a building gets a license or permit, the w...

Re: Africa: In case you were thinking of visiting
Slavery is not just an African thing. Slavery was the norm worldwide 2000 years ago. In fact the Old Testament has rules for keeping slaves and staying sin free with God. My favorite I can’t talk about here due to forum rules. If you beat your slave and he or she is alive the next morning, then you...

Re: Bud Light $14.99 get a $15 rebate no takers
It’s not available in TX per the rebate form. Just select states. I think something in Texas law about rebates/free alcohol. I will never know, because not having a relative in the state legislature I will NEVER be eligible for an alcohol distributorship/franchise in the State of Texas. :biggrinjes...

Re: SHOOTING Allen Outlet Mall Multiple Victims
I’ve been to this “mall” a few times, but only to one store. That one store is not posted. Since it is an outdoor type mall there are several buildings and it is fairly spread out. Yeah Lott is wrong, it's not a "gun free zone". It's virtually impossible to post an outdoor mall with all 3...

Re: ID Requests from Law Enforcement
One important point to note. Identifying yourself, doesn't necessarily require producing a particular document. There is no law that requires you to carry a driver's license if you're not driving. Some people don't have a driver's license. I guess maybe if I was going to take pictures of pro ball pl...

Re: ID Requests from Law Enforcement
Okay, but is asking the same as demanding? Yes. If he asks for your license, no matter how polite, in law it is a demand. As I understand. IANAL, and I did not sleep at a Holiday Inn Express last night. Whether a polite question or a demand, you are under absolutely no legal obligation to provide i...

Re: ID Requests from Law Enforcement
I was at a private event, few people knew about. I was not invited. I was standing at the sidewalk on public property watching the people get dropped off, walking past the sidewalk which had a red carpet, then into the event. I was being paparazzi taking photographs of everyone, figuring I would fi...

Re: ID Requests from Law Enforcement
I think this is a very gray area of the law. As posted, the law requires you to display both your ID and LTC if you are asked to by a peace officer or magistrate. There are two problems with this. The first is that the penalty for not doing so has been repealed, which makes it a useless law.... Can...

Re: SHOOTING Allen Outlet Mall Multiple Victims
on the other site i read, some were asking why or if the LTCS nearby did not run in to protect the others??? ... Why would a LTC go to a mall known to be posted? The mall website shows a "no weapons" policy.... This is not a properly posted 30.XX location. Agreed. The mall prohibits weapo...

Re: SHOOTING Allen Outlet Mall Multiple Victims
Looks like the shooter was another one of those Hispanic White supremacists. Going to Allen of all places to hunt for people with darker skin than him. The illegal alien shooter recently was also White as well as Mexican. Maybe he hated his Honduran neighbors for being from farther South than him. M...
