Texans can now openly carry guns in public without a permit or training. Police say the new law makes it harder to do their jobs | CNN

A new pro-gun law in Texas that went into effect Wednesday allows most Texans who legally own a firearm to carry it openly in public without obtaining a permit or training, a measure that experts say will make it more challenging for law enforcement to protect the public from gun violence.

One's rights are not dependent on how they affect a police officer doing their job. They just are our rights.

 

[HereWeGoAgain]

This will turn out like all the other cries about guns.
They'll be blood running through the streets OMG,OMG,OMG!!!!!!!!!
And nothing happened unless you count the lower crime rates.

What do you mean by "uncleared"? ...

I live in Texas and have not seen one thing different. I asked a cop if they would do anything differently now and he said no because they just assume everyone is armed anyway.

It is a shame that Texas turned pro-death on this issue.

RIP 33,000 Americans who die by guns each year.

I can give them the address of some really high parking garages they can use.
Or they can park in their garage with the engine running.
Japan has the highest suicide numbers and yet they have strict gun control.
You cant include suicide....

Japan has the highest suicide numbers and yet they have strict gun control.

Sadly they do not view Suicide as a sin.

What does that have to do with suicide numbers?

EXACTLY!

What cops did CNN talk to? Certainly none from Texas.

This is par for the course at CNN, though, so there it is.

 

[Bootney Lee Farnsworth]

Sadly they do not view Suicide as a sin.

We don't view guns as the cause of suicide. I know it's hard to see the distinction, but please try.

 

[Bootney Lee Farnsworth]

RIP 33,000 Americans who die by guns each year.

Yeah. RIP....
