Pro-gun measures continue making their way through the Republican-dominated Texas Legislature.
Senate Bill 17, which would allow concealed carry holders to now carry handguns openly, passed the Texas Senate in a vote along party lines in March.
Its companion bill in the House, HB 910, has since passed through the Texas House Committee on Homeland Security and Public Safety and been sent to the House Calendars Committee, where it will be placed on the calendar for the vote by the entire chamber. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed; as they are in almost every kingdom of Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any bands of regular troops that can be, on any pretense, raised in the United States. — Noah Webster in "An Examination into the Leading Principles of the Federal Constitution," 1787, in Paul Ford, ed., Pamphlets on the Constitution of the United States, at p. 56 (New York, 1888). |
