George Lavender has introduced HB 2756, which removes completely the requirement of Concealed Handgun License Holders to conceal their handguns. This will sest us on the road to gun freedom, a road we are far behind on, compared to many other states. Open Carry is even legal in California! Come on, Texas!

Hope it passes. With civil war on their Southern Texas border, and being infiltrated by how many invaders and who knows what, Texans (if walking with half a brain) already carry though.

We do have open carry in Texas.

I was walking to the gun show the other day with a friend of mine who was in the Turkish special forces that I go hog hunting with.

Folks are crossing the street with their Kahrs, ARs, AKs and Remingtons out in the open in downtown Houston.

My buddy was a bit surprised. "They can do this??"

I said, "Yeah. There is no law." He liked that idea.

It's just those danged pistols that some folks are hung up about.

=========================================

I was talking about the 'open carry law' as in other states (e.g., Alaska) where you can carry your pistol on your hip almost anywhere.

It is common to see people carrying in Alaska on the sidewalk and in public places.

I know what you're talking about, and I'm all for that.

My only concern is from a tactical viewpoint. If I'm concealed, I'm cool. Open carry may upset some folks in the public environment, but that's their business. The thing about carrying a pistol in the open that worries me is that, in certain situations, the bearer could be a target in a way that he or she might not be with a handgun tucked in a waistband or hidden under a jacket.

I'm interested in what other folks have to say on this point.

What is more likely is the criminal casing the joint will find another, less hostile place to rob. An armed society is a polite society. Why do restaurants like police officers to hang out there? The open presence of guns deters criminal activity.

Ah, a fellow reader of Heinlein. ;-)

If you like Heinlein, and you are not already aware of him, get hold of some H. Beam Piper. Tragically he was not around as long as Heinlein but, for my money, was his equal. You can get a lot of his stuff on the Project Gutenberg website for free. Not to be missed is "The Cosmic Computer", "Uller Uprising", and some of his short stories were stunning. Oh, and the classics "Little Fuzzy" and "Fuzzy Sapiens".
