Guns now allowed in Texas’ state-run psychiatric hospitals

Yea this is real bright, well its Texas

Licensed gun owners can now bring their firearms into Texas’ 10 state psychiatric hospitals.

Before the state’s new open carry law went into effect, guns were banned at those state facilities. No one — visitors, deliverymen and the like — could bring firearms anywhere on campus. Even local law enforcement officers, who were already allowed to bring their weapons into the facilities, regularly lock up their guns before entering Austin State Hospital out of an abundance of caution.

They have had a shooting or two in their hospitals..
Obviously the "gun free zone" sign didn't help. Maybe this will.

I'm sorry I know it shouldn't be funny but when I read the title of this thread I just broke out laughing.

Allowing weapons to be around mentally impaired people?

What could possibly go wrong?

LOL
