A video of Gov Abbott signing HB910.

At 0:31 secs, Gov Abbott thanks his good friend from the NRA, board member Charles Cotton. :thumbs2:

It was an honor to be present as a representative of the NRA at the history-making signing of HB910. No, we weren't asleep; we were reading his signature.

What on earth was Abbott thinking speaking positively of Reagan at this event? Is he really unaware that Reagan is the one who banned Open Carry in California?
Ronald Reagan wrote:There’s no reason why on the street today a citizen should be carrying loaded weapons
Amusingly, Reagan only banned loaded Open Carry. Unloaded Open Carry was only banned a few years ago (after OCT-like types got negative media coverage).
Btw, OCT will be very sad to learn that Abbott did not thank or mention them at all :smilelol5: He did however mention the hard work of the NRA and TSRA.
During Ronald Reagan's tenure as governor of California open carry was banned mainly because of the actions of a group called the Black Panthers.

Check it out. Do you see any similarities between their actions and those of OCT?

I also noticed they are all morbidly obese and can barely walk straight, they more or less waddle across the parking lot. Not sure what good a firearm is going to do if you are so ridiculously out of shape that you can't move to use it.
In the same way that we all say that a gun is a great equalizer for a woman vs. a much larger man, I think that we could say the same thing about the 'gravitationally challenged' members of society.

Personally, I find actions of the OCT fools to be repugnant, but I'm not going to lower myself to insult them personally based on their physical traits. I hope you'll also consider doing the same.
I agree. Once you make it personal, you lose the argument. Their weight is their concern. Their actions are my concern.
:iagree: Well it is 12:56PM. Did Gov Abbott sign the bills yet?
