Someone on another thread put it best, "If this passes, it will be in spite of Straus not because of him." I wish Gov. Abbott would stand up and make an unequivocal statement about this rather than just posting his "support" on Facebook.timtheteacher wrote:http://www.texastribune.org/2015/02/11/ ... e-bullied/
Straus said the House was broadly in favor of Second Amendment rights, but that the details of any proposed open carry bill will save or sink it.
“It’s a favorable place for gun legislation generally,” Straus said. “Maybe not the particularly extreme one that that wild man (Watkins) was talking about.”
Does this statement give you any hope for any of the firearm legislation coming up this session?
