"Anyone listening to the Texas Senate State Affairs Committee public testimony for and against two Senate bills to allow the licensed concealed carrying of handguns at public colleges and the broader licensed open carrying of handguns Thursday must acknowledge that passionate, sometimes even rational arguments exist from all perspectives."

TO REMEMBER |
| No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
