It never ends. Now following the NY debacle, someone has published a map of all Texas gunowners.

oh my     thats gonna leave a mark

[Perd Hapley]

I C what they did there.

Yet, with all of those guns, a few hundred feds were able to stroll into the heart of Texas, set up a 50 day siege on private property over allegations of 'non-mainstream religeous activities', then proceed to burn 80-some men, women, and children to death, and walk away scott-free without a single Texan stepping up in resistance.

I hope that Texans have learned their lessons since then and have grown spines or their guns aren't going to do them any good.

Dude... It's entirely legal, possibly beneficial, to set aside the bitterness and have a laugh every now and then.

Thanks, I was just about going to make a similar comment.

OTOH, perhaps it is kinda like airliner hijackings pre- and post- 9-11.  Who would have thought the hijackers would deliberately down the plane?  Who would have thought fed.gov would deliberately burn them out(1)?  With kids inside.

Nowadays, we know better.

This, but also - you simply wouldn't expect people to go all Lexington and Concord on behalf of a small, unsympathetic, fringe, sex-offender cult. If it had been the friendly, neighborhood Baptist church, or the VFW, maybe, but folks aren't going to put their lives on the line for people they presumably don't know or care for.

Forty or so years ago, when I was married to my first wife, we lived near a small town in which was located a small-ish company called American Powdered Metals. The male half of a couple we became friendly with had lived in the area all his life, and he cheerfully told us that APM changed their address abut every three to five years because their building kept blowing up.

Something about grinding magnesium down into fine particulate form ...

Well aren't just one big *expletive deleted*ing ray of sunshine today?

[AZRedhawk44]

Brimic, i won't whizz in your cheerios like everyone else seems to want to do.

Texas - big hats, big talk... big Statists that do what Uncle says.

[mtnbkr]

Talk is cheap, let us know when you actually do something more overt than hiding your money and living semi-off-grid.

And here I thought I was posting something lighthearted.

Is it National Debbie Downers Day and I missed it?

There you go thinking again. We've warned you about that.

Debbie Downer does Dallas.

Debbie Downer does Dallas.

That's the spirit!

Sure, i will get right on narrating my rebellion with self written confessions, and post video of my activities on youtube.  With complementary google location tracking, too.

That's a mighty large hat you have there.

Sweet. Where do I sign up for the foilman newsletter?

Azred baiting aside, there is a pretty large disconnect between the national perception of Texas (and their PR efforts) and the legal realities of fireamrs ownership there. Less so since they got concelaed carry.

[Lee]

Bart Simpson laugh- HA HA
Love it.

[Gewehr98]

Similar map for Oklahoma, too!

Fail. That's Nelson.

Bring up open carry on the TXCHLForums website and you get a sense of that right there.

Don't forget, the Luby's massacre was in Texas at a time that it was a felony to conceal carry.
