to what extent do you think they really believe this will make it safer, or is this just performative to annoy liberals?

Supporters of the new rules, often known as "constitutional carry", say they would allow Texans to better defend themselves in public and abolish unnecessary limits on the constitutional right to bear arms.
So those nutters who carry out mass shootings will now come up against armed citizens who will shoot back?
How many more will die in the crossfire?
It'll be like the OK Corral over there.
And they'll never learn.

Proponents will probably argue that such nutters who carry out mass shootings, will no longer get the chance to empty off their magazines.

This is exactly what it is. Or rather to pump up their chests to their (shrinking) base. The majority of people don't want this. The cops don't want this. They have a republican sweep in the legislature so basically, it's a big **** you. Same with their ridiculous abortion law.

The article says
Texas has some of the loosest gun laws in the US and already allows rifles to be carried in public without a licence.
:yikes:
Is that right? I mean that's a lot worse than a concealed handgun

That's the line that jumped out at me. I can't remember reading any stories of people defending themselves with a gun. Does it happen? There's certainly no mass shootings that I know of that were ended by armed citizens.

Imagine taking a stroll down a street and you see someone coming towards you with a rifle slung over their shoulder and a pistol on their hip... is that going to make you feel reassured? I'd cross over the other side of the road or quickly turn back.

And if you somehow survive the hospital bills will finish you off.
I’m certainly relieved to no longer be based in the US.

This news article, and thread, is about it (probably) soon being ok in Texas to walk around in public with unlicensed guns.

Re: They really are numbskulls
Considering the US has higher knife crime than the UK along with it's gun crime these sort of unrestricted rules seem mental.
