What did Texas do in 2019 to mitigate gun violence? On Sept. 2, a number of new laws loosening firearm restrictions took effect.
Gov. Greg Abbott stated those were enacted “for the purpose of making our community safer.” How? The gunman in Midland-Odessa was confronted by police. These are the most highly trained professionals in handling firearms. Nonetheless, the gunman shot three and continued with a massacre. Can you imagine untrained citizens? |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed; as they are in almost every kingdom of Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any bands of regular troops that can be, on any pretense, raised in the United States. — Noah Webster in "An Examination into the Leading Principles of the Federal Constitution," 1787, in Paul Ford, ed., Pamphlets on the Constitution of the United States, at p. 56 (New York, 1888). |
