Texas Gets It Right

“Don’t mess with Texas” actually means something. Texas politicians, after that impromptu mass shooting in the Odessa area, instead of following in the footsteps of politicians elsewhere and demanding more “gun control,” or the disarming of potential victims, immediately eased restrictions on the use of guns by the law-abiding, allowing for self defense, instead of making their citizens more easily murdered by fools with illegal guns. I’ve always wondered about the sanity of most politicians when they respond to these mass shootings by making their citizens much easier targets for such fools, instead of simply trying to find out the overwhelming CAUSES for such actions. To disarm potential victims is insane. But most politicians (mostly Dumocrats) insist that disarming potential victims is “common sense,” which it is NOT. We don’t know yet what set this shooter off, but thankfully he’s now dead, thanks to the guns in the hands of the cops. Maybe it was simply a case of “suicide by cop.” He could have accomplished that without murdering 7 people, but who knows about the thinking of such people. (NBC News)
