This will never happen because the world is run by nuts. But, I will tell president Obama to be real careful in asking for tighter gun control because all the guns will end up in a certain group of people hands and other groups will be left with rocks and spears.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7304841.post-65853843065071202932015-12-11T10:51:39.335-06:002015-12-11T10:51:39.335-06:00Hello Bert,

I have always been afraid of guns but did purchase one back during the summer and am learning to use it. As far as carrying it around for everyone to see..not there yet.

The real problem is on the officers not to profile to the legal folk who are going to open carry and to the folks who do open carry not to over react to people who are in informed about the law. Signage will also be an issue as there will be 2 official signs, a 30.06 and the new 30.07 for those who do not want open carry in their establishment.A B Dawsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02363509182045272262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7304841.post-5312688598626182442015-12-11T09:08:21.720-06:002015-12-11T09:08:21.720-06:00Good article again Bert....DebiGood article again Bert....DebiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7304841.post-12481695850917036452015-12-11T08:56:40.302-06:002015-12-11T08:56:40.302-06:00Ren Fitts: Very well said Bert...Ren Fitts: Very well said Bert...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7304841.post-62305664927122094022015-12-11T08:56:04.485-06:002015-12-11T08:56:04.485-06:00James Connealy: Great commentary BB, I am sure it ...James Connealy: Great commentary BB, I am sure it will raise the hackles of some, but that is all they do is look for some way to demean those that think differently.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7304841.post-58686424151118257852015-12-11T08:55:13.682-06:002015-12-11T08:55:13.682-06:00Lynnette Elder: Amen, and amen, Bert.

The reason that you don't see them now in gun racks is the same reason I would say you're foolish to leave your purse sitting on the seat of your car. It's weird that I never heard of a car being broken into until the 80's. Now it's like it's Americas past-time. I wished that the State of Texas would make firearm safety a part of public education. BPD had the Eddie Eagle teaching materials, but never had anyone to request firearm safety. On a separate topic, I also think that first aid should be taught in 5th, 8th, and 11th grades for the event of a mass casualty on campus.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7304841.post-45034459868880112922015-12-11T06:44:14.102-06:002015-12-11T06:44:14.102-06:00Kimberly Lopez: When I lived in Springhill, LA it ...Kimberly Lopez: When I lived in Springhill, LA it was normal to see people open carry so it was not a big deal. Hunting was a big thing, we had hunter safety and gun safety in school so everyone was aware of proper safety, use and cleaning of firearms. People drove around with their rifles and shotguns in gun racks in their pickups or their sidearms holstered to their sides. I moved back to Texas in 1983 and guns were to be feared. frown emoticon People it's not the guns, it's who is carrying them and if they are properly trained. Guns do not shoot people.

It will be nice though, not having to be overly concerned when I help a short person (my wife) get something off the top shelf in a store and accidentally flash. Officers that I know in open carry states tell me that it's really a non-event and very few choose to open carry. As Gordon stated, it will be nice to have the choice. I am curious about scenes caused by anti-gun nuts and negative coverage by the liberal media. If I experienced 2 incidents of people being upset seeing a handgun, while on duty in non-traditional police attire, I'm sure there will be a few for the armed citizens.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7304841.post-25962646804949767442015-12-11T04:28:06.762-06:002015-12-11T04:28:06.762-06:00Joseph Dykehouse: Great article Mr Marshall.
