Re: Voting Thread for March 6th

Agreed with the last three comments for sure after some research. Milder is way more liberal, and Patterson over Bush for sure - Patterson wrote the chl law in '95 I believe. Talking about Strauss, prop 3 - Republicans in the House should select their speaker nominee by secret ballot in a binding c...

Voting Thread for March 6th

Wanted to start a thread for elections tomorrow - anyone want to go over who they are voting for and why?
I don't vote straight Republican anymore (libertarians can earn my vote) so I thought some discussion might be nice. Especially go against "butter" gun rights candidates.

Books about Gun Control

I consider myself pretty educated on history and gun control, but can I get some suggestions for books about gun control and it's progression to tyranny in history? I want to be able to debate the consequences of gun control and have as many facts (not just statistics) on my side. I currently am sta...

Re: 30.06 Ruling Letters

This ruling has huge implications once said and done. If carrying anywhere that a field trip is taking place, you can become an automatic felon without even knowing you are breaking the law. Ridiculous. Hope this goes all the way up the chain, even since the OAG is definitely not on our side.

Re: Let's Really Protect Our Schools

So under the law now, for a teacher to carry in a school, they just need their LTC and permission from the school/district right? The school safety program is just an additional certification they can get if they or the school wanted or required them to have it, right?

Re: Carry at the Houston Marathon

I would have carried, but I had only ran around 5-6 miles carrying my pistol, didn't want to try anything I hadn't done before.

Ran the full, a little over 4 hours. Last 8 miles got me (first half was 1:55).
