I reckon this is as good topic for a first post as any!

A few days ago our Gov. Rick Perry said that he was in favor of those with Concealed Carry Permits to be able to carry their guns anywhere, ie; churces, hospitals, university campuses, courhouses, bars, etc. I wonder if that means the Statehouse?

I really don’t have a problem with this. What I do have a problem with is the lack of training most CCP holders get. Not all permit holders are created equal! Some of us grew up with a Pistola, most didn’t. Even then, we still need training and I think the initial hours should be doubled to get a CCP.

I think this is an attempt at Perry to suck up to the Conservative base. Why, I don’t know. I’m betting that he was shocked that he couldn’t carry a majority of voters in the State. Then after the vacine fiasco, I’m sure he wasn’t feeling the love from his base.

We’ll have to wait and see what the Legislature does with this and whether or not Rick P. will get to sign this into law. Seems like if he wanted to make an Executive decision like he did with the vacine, he should have drumbed up this with an Executive Order!
