    Texas can lead the way by showing how to keep schools safe while also protecting the 2nd Amendment. I won’t sign any law that infringes the 2nd Amendment. But we can still make our schools safer. #txlege #tcothttps://www.tribtalk.org/2018/06/06/abbotts-school-safety-plan-respects-the-2nd-amendment/?_ga=2.168039713.1455405934.1528112666-397547730.1514983147 …

        Have you seen Chicago? They have the strictest gun laws in the country and millions die there. Get rid of gun free zones and mass shootings will stop.

        Republicans need to read the 2nd Amendment, and interpret it better, without the sale of assault weapons to the public. Or else, we should replace them with people that truly represent the people. Only 5 million people are in the NRA. There are 350 million people in the US.

        Texas gun owners can lead the way by modeling safe gun storage, responsible sales practices, and by bearing legal and financial responsibility when their weapon is used to harm someone else. #txlege #responsiblegunownership

        Gun storage laws are pro2A? What good is a gun locked up in a safe when you live on the unsecured border and armed drug runners and human traffickers are constantly running thru your property? Texas, you need to remove your governor.

        I'm behind you Gov. Abbott, but any kind of 'red flag' proposal is a red flag for diminishing rights and a red flag for abuse of power, not necessarily by you, but future leaders.

        Oddly enough, based on the multiple points that came out of your meetings with gun control advocates I'm pretty sure you don't understand the phrase "shall not be infringed".

        Couldn’t agree more. This “Red Flag” part is a page out of CA. They could take anyone’s right with just an angry complaint. Scary stuff.

        You have children in cages Governor. How is that leading the way? Your state is displaying human rights violations to the entire world. Stop hiding from it. You are another one of tRumps cowards.

        Do you have any proof of this other than some nut job who claims it? Are these the same cages the Obama admin used and was actually filmed using at the time? Where do you propose all these children go in the meantime other than holding facilities?Your house, who is paying for it?

        Yet you have no use for our 1st amendment rights. Btw, your token 'fix' is just an attempt to look like you are keeping kids safe. How about a real solution or are you incapable of actually doing something.

        You forgot banning AR 15 and bump stock.

        Why would he ban AR15s? Bump stock is going to be federally banned once the Swamp Rats do their jobs on both sides. Can you tell us which Swamp Rats have not voted on banning bump stocks? Even the NRA says to vote and ban them.

        Why wouldn’t he want to ban them, what is the point of bump stock or AR/15? Did the NRA change their position on bump stock since 2/20/2018? May of missed that, if he cared to do so he could change it for the state of Texas

        Why wouldn't he want to ban free speech? Why not ban cars? Why not ban having kids? Why not ban everything?
