        Funny, I’m a godless Texan who owns no firearm, who favors common sense gun reform, and who wants to see public officials elected who will do their jobs to protect the public and schoolchildren from violence. I’m hardly alone in this state.

        Don't count on it. If anything, he'll use this to sell more guns...to the public school system.

        Dan Patrick says he and the Gov. think more guns, less doors will solve the problem. WTF?

        What a joke. And Lt Gov Patrick said #blk should run into live gun fire he is a hateful bigot. Remember Ted Rafael Cruz frying bacon on an Ak47? Zero credibility!!! @GOP

        Really godlessness? Thoughts and prayers that always are proclaimed after every single shooting in the USA don’t stop the next school shooting or the next or the next.

        @GovAbbott thrives on conspiracies and should be held accountable for his "participation" in the Jade Helm 15 conspiracy, alone. Abbott exemplifies godlessness by giving credence to the conspiracies floating around in his head.

        BS. He’s had his entire political career to do something. He says this in the immediate aftermath, but there’s nothing in his record to indicate he’ll follow through. He’s another NRA lackey, which is what most of his constituents like.
