In Texas, it was not illegal to drink and drive until the late '80s when Federal Highway dollars hinged on making it illegal. (When you leave a party in Austin, in my experience, lots of old timers will still offer you a âroadieâ. But itâs much less common than it used to be.) I do wish we could use a lever like this with guns.
Paxton should be in jail. Fucker.
If I were in Texas, Iâd get a bumper sticker for my car that said:
WYATT EARP WAS RIGHTWow, he has tiny fingers, too?
Would explain a lotâŚ
Trump should have picked this @$$hole as running mate.
I always suspected Peter Sellers faked his death.
Can we please just give Texas back to Mexico? That way theyâd be on the âotherâ side of the Wall Oâ Drumpf.
What better way to commemorate the 50 year anniversary of a tragic mass shooting then let people carry their guns everywhere on campus?
For reference:
August 1, 1966 - Charles Whitman killed 14 people and wounded 31 from the observation deck of the University of Texas-Austin tower. Experts have stated that this event was the beginning of the modern day âmass shootingâ.
August 1, 2016 - the campus carry law in Texas went into effect.
Hilarious! Paxton does have a certain verisimilitude to Chauncey Gardner, albeit, without the intellectual gravitas.
âSchools were allowed to set up gun-free zones on campus, such as in sports arenas and clinics, but universities were limited in the restrictions they could implement.â
Sounds like the professors would have an easier time petitioning to hold their classes in the Erwin Center, rather than suing to keep guns out of their classrooms. Paxtonâs such a flaccid prick.
I donât know what things are like in Texas, but I can tell you I have been in many classrooms where I was extremely grateful that there were no firearms available.
TPM: In the future, please use this picture for articles about Ken Paxton:
It is his official mug shot.
Is it wrong to day dream about punching the Texas AG right in his smirking face?
Tom DeLayâs is a fave.
âPaxton wrote that allowing concealed carry in university classrooms âfurthers . . . an individualâs Second Amendment rights.ââ
The Supreme Court has held that abortion and gay sex are Constitutionally protected rights. Iâm sure Paxton thinks a university classroom is an appropriate venue to exercise those rights.
I canât wait for Texas to finally flip blue. The current gov, lt gov and AG are the derpiest of derp.
Can you imagine being a professor and having to deal with a bunch of people who do not have fully developed frontal lobes. Most of these people are still under 21. Thatâs not just scary, itâs stupid.
Gun control in the old west!
iâm sure paxton would like law abiding gun toters in courtrooms. (if it werenât for those dang non law abiding gun toters.)
