Texas banks are deciding how to handle the open carry law that takes effect January 1. In 2016, it will be legal for people to openly carry guns into banks, but the bank owners and branch managers get the last word.
"Most people aren't prepared to see a person carry a gun into a bank lobby," explains Celeste Embrey, assistant general counsel at the Texas Bankers Association.

| Actually, there are very few banks in Texas that allow concealed carry. All the banks in Bryan except one or two prohibit concealed carry. So why would one expect them to allow open carry? |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
