The focal point for Texas firearms information and discussions

Angie, a number of firearms-related bills are sitting in the Calendars Committee and not being voted on. Would you please do whatever you can to bring these to a vote? Texans deserve a fair hearing for these bills and an up or down vote on the floor of the House.

If your legislator voted for Straus as speaker in 2011, and you voted for him/her in 2012, and he/she voted for Straus as speaker again in 2013, then you're part of the problem.

Why do legislators keep coming here if they have such thin skin? its like an Asthmatic who walk passed the smoke pit everyday and lectures everyone there how bad it is for them and how everyone is being inconsiderate.Or a vegetarian that comes to your BBQ without giving notice of their diet and is shocked when there is nothing there for them to eatcling wrote:I may ruffle some feathers with this comment, but I think it needs to be said.
