Don't get all glum! -- I just now saw your posts, even tho I have checked TexasCHLforum several times this weekend. I dunno why I didn't see it earlier -- can hardly think I would miss the title.

Anyway -- I hope Berman has some influence, and even if he doesn't, hope Perry puts the p-lot and campus carry, either one or both, in the special session. My pessimistic nature (at least when it comes to politics) says it is a long shot for even one of them to be included -- frankly the main political show seems to be the voter ID business (which I support --- there is no dadgum reason anyone can't come up with a decent photo ID to vote with!), and I think that is where all the heat and light will be.

But still, I hope.

And thanks for the report, the whole thing was interesting.

All a voter needs to do is go down to the local ACORN office and get a photo-ID. Whats the problem?

The problem is that he ACORN offices is what caused the problem in the first place......

I hate it when my sarcasm fails to appear on the internet...

[TheArmedFarmer]

So don't despair guys, things may be looking up after all

Great thread to start off my day! I'm encouraged. Thank you for taking the time to post this news.

Ha ha.......I kinda figured you were being sarcastic, but I thought I would post that for the newer peeps that have not actually kept up with things lately........

Me too!!!

I usually end the statement sometimes with a "/sarc"

But that may not be too familiar with folks here...You would see more of those over at Free Republic and other political blogs...

Well. I hope something can be done in this Special Session.
Parking lot and Campus carry are important to me. May not for others.

Though no longer a practicing Student, I believe that the ramifications of a successful "Campus Carry" on the anti-gun crowd would be priceless in and of itself.

And, let's remember that last year Gov. Perry said he would sign such a bill. Well, here's the bill stuck by some tomfoolery and unable to get to his desk.......

So, do you think he has this in mind? To get this bill to his desk that he stated he would sign?

I personally think he will do it.

I am not that optimistic about any of the "gun-bills" making it to the Special Session.

A) I doubt it will occur in the first place.

B) If it does, it will be for some bizarre political grand-standing that a normal person cannot conceive of in the first place.
