Liars, slanderers and alarmists are despicable people regardless of the issue and regardless whether they are allegedly on our side. These same people loudly condemn such tactics by anit-gunners.jerry_r60 wrote:That's so frustrating. After watching these hearings, there is no way to honestly label her a "gun grabber".

It was Joan Huffman who added that stupid "no open carry on college campuses" amendment, and it was Joan Huffman who got rid of this common sense amendment to stop police harassment of open carriers. This is the 3rd strike. Joan Huffman the gun grabber has got to go!
She may not be perfect but I think she's done a respectable job considering.
Huffman has done a commendable job with both hearings held on OC and the one on CC.

None. It was removed to secure passage of HB910 on the floor.or Dutton Amendment being added on the full Senate floor?
Don't forget that Shawn Northrup won his decision in the Sixth Circuit on May 13th. It does not apply here, and won't unless the City of Toledo Ohio decides to appeal once again, but this one could end up being decided judicially without an amendment.Ruark wrote:I wonder what Acevedo is going to tell Austin LEOs to do when they see somebody OCing.

Texas' opinion is that DUI checkpoints are unconstitutional under the 4A in the US Constitution. That's why we do not have them here.jerry_r60 wrote:I'm guessing what you meant by unnecessary.TVGuy wrote:No, but it's unnecessary.Rvrrat14 wrote:So did the Dutton amendment get incuded???
This was discussed / debated on here when this went through the House. On the one hand you have some saying it would be unconstitutional to stop and ask for a license if no other crime is committed however, like car drivers licenses at DWI checkpoints, if you stop everyone you see carrying in a particular area and not randomly pick out certain individuals, then I think there is case law supporting that activity. Of course IANAL.
It's certainly not necessary in terms of affecting any decision I make on if I would OC or not.
You never know, but personally, I don't think you will see either of those added in the Senate. I'm no insider, so this is purely speculation, but I beleive that a deal was struck whereby the Senate would pass HB910 and the House would move forward on SB11. We saw both bills start movement within a day or so of each other after being held up for quite some time.TXBO wrote:What are the chances of Campus Carry or Dutton Amendment being added on the full Senate floor?

I understood that these checkpoints do occur in Texas i.e. outside of Forth Worth. That the justification was that people were not randomly pulled over but everyone passing the checkpoint. I'll accept I am misinformed if that's the case. I either read old info or thought I was reading something on Texas and was not.TVGuy wrote:Texas' opinion is that DUI checkpoints are unconstitutional under the 4A in the US Constitution.

You can't stop everyone and ask if they have a driver license, that's been found in violation of 4A by SCOTUS.
And if all we get is SB473 (removing NFA items from the prohibited weapons list if registered pursuant to the NFA), I would give them an F.canvasbck wrote:You never know, but personally, I don't think you will see either of those added in the Senate.

If HB910 and SB11 both pass, I would give this session a B or B- considering the makup of this congress. Had the original HB308 passed, I would have scored it an A+. If all we get is HB910, I would give this session a D+, it's only that high because of the downgrade from an A to a C for 30.06.
