Private property vs. Disorderly conduct/display of gun
Okay so its been beat up pretty good here, I'm not trying to flog the dead horse. Trying to make a point elsewhere. Looking for any caselaw where someone in Texas has been cited on private property for carrying a weapon, or any other case that supports the fact that visible private property really ain't private (like someone growing pot in the front yard, that kind of thing). My googlfu sucks.

Well, check your PM.
There's a funny similar news article in it about a guy in Fort Worth arrested doing yard work in his own yard with his weed whacker.

Doesn't everyone do their yardwork in the buff?
