    I think Texas shouldn't impose any fee on license to carry handgun but this is a step in the right direction. #gunshttps://www.texastribune.org/2017/09/27/new-law-lower-first-time-fees-texans-wanting-buy-handgun-license/ …

        We shouldn’t be required to get a license to exercise our rights, period. #ConstitutionalCarry

        So you're proposing anyone can carry without trying to make sure they won't use the gun to harm others?

        By its very definition, a “right” requires no license or permission to exercise it

        It was also made a right over 200 years ago: muskets were the weapon of choice and we had just fought for our independence. Times change.

        So was the 1st A. What's your point? Dispense with your BS, or get to writing with your quill and iron ball ink.

        My point is that legislation needs to keep up with the times? Taking a look at the damage modern guns can do, write accordingly.

        And I think National Reciprocity and Constitutional Carry across all States should be the law if the land. A right is a right until constitutionally amended, and there is a legal way to accomplish amendments.

        Cornyn's own Reciprocity bill includes language defining responsible gun owners, ie not everyone can handle a gun.

        There shouldn’t be a license at all. Constitutional Carry is what Texas needs.

        CONSTITUTIONAL CARRY Write an executive order and let's get this done. Law-abiding citizens shouldn't need permission to protect themselves.

        But FYI, the whole point of twitter is no one needs permission to butt into your conversation.
