Opposition to it makes no sense, since it assumes that currently criminals are deterred by it's being illegal for them to carry a gun. When the reality is that, under Constitutional Carry, criminals are still prohibited, but will carry exactly as often as they did before Constitutional Carry. They aren't deterred by activities being illegal. That's what makes them criminals. Not only that, but in Texas, you can carry a rifle or shotgun now. Just not a handgun. Idiots.

What about illegals and non-us citizens, what is the penalty for them carrying.
Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Give a man a welfare check, a forty ounce malt liquor, a crack pipe, an Obama phone, free health insurance. and some Air Jordan's and he votes Democrat for a lifetime.

Its all about "reconquista". And what would stand in its way.
These people are not illegal immigrants, they are illegal colonists.
They are here for one purpose only. They have no plan for assimilation.

"There's not enough conservatives in their districts to get rid of them."
This is what the not too distant future holds for the entire state!
I'll say it again, Texas will go the way of California and Arizona.
A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”

They have learned to work the system so well. Watch 3 the other day in Lowes by $6,000 of construction material and right it off as an ag exemption ( no sales tax) and said they were building a "chicken house". Bullschidt! Damn chickens iive in the front yard with the goats and bull calves.

Sadly, that abuse of the Ag Exemption in Texas will eventually result in more regulation. Right now, there's no minimum acreage or minimum animal units. That will change though. I'm seeing the agencies wise up already.

I don’t think Texas is as conservative as Texans think it is. This is true and with the huge influx of aliens Biden is letting across the border it is only matter of time until there are no conservative states. dont forget all the liberal Californians coming to Texas with the jobs being tranferred from CA to TX

House: We passed Constitutional Carry, and sent a clean Bill over to the Senate only to watch them muddy it up.
Senate: We passed Constitutional Carry, and added corrections to the Bill the House mistakenly overlooked to create a clean Bill.
House: These additional amendments are not acceptable, and only further restrict the Constitutional Rights of the citizens. If we pass the Bill, we will have not represented the citizens of Texas as we swore an oath to do. The Senate should be held 100% liable for derailing this legislation we promised the citizens of Texas we would get passed during this legislative session.
Senate: We passed the House's Bill, and the citizens of Texas should hold their Representatives accountable for failure to accept the needed corrections.
In the Back Rooms: [They all are laughing at the citizens}
The citizens are being played again...all the way up to the deadline...with a carefully choreographed show to hopefully appease the peasantry into believing "they tried again", but just couldn't get it across the finish line, because of the wrenches the other side threw into the cogs on the wheel of "democracy".
Watching citizens testify before the Senate committee, and "begging" to get back their Right to Bear Arms, and listening to Communist Senators make excuses for "not" supporting what they swore an oath to defend, Citizen's Rights, was pretty pathetic.
What was even more pathetic was watching CHL instructors attempt to justify their position that citizens "must be instructed" before they can use a Constitutionally protected Right. Sure is funny how society went through the 1600's", 1700"s, 1800's, and early 1900's without needing "training".

Pity that so many here just can’t grasp this simple truth. “ We will take back the House in 2022” “Let’s primary the bums out” “Trump in 2024” On and on and on it goes with the dilution, that we can vote our way out of this.

From your link. The measure, already passed by the Texas House last week, now heads to a conference committee for the two chambers to debate amendments and settle differences until the House and Senate versions are identical. The bill will then go to Governor Greg Abbott’s desk for his final signature.Note that they only have till the end of may to sort this out and get it to Abbott
