Sixteen Gun Control Bills Filed in Texas.

Without hesitation, Texas Democrats have introduced multiple gun control bills for the 2021 Texas Legislative Session. What part of, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed do they not understand?

So far, 16 gun control bills have been filed for the upcoming session, which starts in early January. State Rep. Terry Meza introduced one of the most notable gun control bills, HB 196, which would greatly weaken Castle Doctrine. Under Castle Doctrine, homeowners can use lethal force to defend themselves against home invaders.

“I’m not condoning stealing, it is against the law “but it’s not an offense that is punishable by death.”

According to KLBJ Radio, Meza claims she’s being harassed online by people who are against her anti-gun initiative. “People are already attacking me on Facebook saying I’m against the 2nd Amendment,” she said.

Meza re-assured critics that homeowners would still be able to defend themselves, but the use of a firearm for home defense would be prohibited. In effect, homeowners would be stripped of the most effective way to defend themselves and their property. Criminals would then enjoy a massive advantage over their victims and could potentially bring about deadly encounters.

It’s already a given that police response times are often not fast enough to defuse a home invasive situation. Such situations are defined by seconds, and having a firearm at your disposal can make all the difference. Then again, some of the biggest proponents of gun control enjoy the benefits of living in gated communities and/or rely on private security to protect their homes. On the other hand, countless middle and working-class people must rely on firearms ownership for self-defense purposes. They simply don’t have the means to contract bodyguards or expensive security services. Political elites, who live in bubbles that are distant from that of the average American, simply don’t care about the rest of us.

KLBJ Radio listed off other gun control bills being introduced in this session of the Texas State Legisture:

● HB 152 and HB 245 would ban the private sale of firearms at gun shows

● HB 238 would eliminate the state’s firearm preemption, allowing local governments such as the Austin City Council to pass local gun bans and regulations as they see fit

● HB 201 would ban Campus Carry

● HB 127 would ban the open carry of long rifles

● HB 236 would overhaul the 30.06 and 30.07 signage requirements to make it much easier for a business to ban a legal and licensed gun owner from entering

● HB 118 would eliminate family members from being able to transfer firearms among each other, instead requiring a federal license application to process each transaction “at an undetermined fee”

● HB 164 and HB 395 relate to Red Flag laws, allowing the removal of a person’s firearm without due process

● HB 185 would legally require homeowners to keep all guns locked inside of a safe at all times

● HB 231 raises the legal age required to purchase semi-automatic rifles and shotguns

● HB 172 and HB 241 would ban the transfer or possession of certain “commonly owned semi-automatic firearms”

● HB 178 and HB 234 would ban the sale or possession of any magazine that holds more than ten rounds”

Fortunately for Texan gun owners, Democrats were denied a legislative majority after Republicans defied the polls and kept all of their House seats earlier this month. Because of this positive electoral development, the bulk of these gun control bills will likely languish in the legislative session.
People who would vote for this do not understand what freedom is as they never lived under Hitler.

Gun owners will still need to remain vigilant, however, and most importantly, be ready to go on offense during this legislative session. It is not enough for us to play defense. When the anti-gun Left is using a
relentless offense, we must respond with an even greater offensive force. The 2021 legislative session is perhaps a golden opportunity for grassroots activists to push for Constitutional Carry and make it a legislative reality in the Lone Star State.

I’m sure Meza will re-assure homeowners that home invaders will be banned from bringing firearms on the job!

That is why homeowners will not be able to use lethal force to defend themselves against home invaders“ She’s not condoning stealing, it is against the law “but it’s not an offense that is punishable by death.”

Hard to believe this BS is coming out of The Great State of Texas. It’d be easier
To baptize a cat than get this dizzy broad to think straight.

Any representative, senator, at State or Federal level that proposes any law prohibiting protecting yourself in your own home with a gun should be liable criminally & civilly for any harm to, or death of any home owner caused by an intruder. Gated communities should not be allowed to have armed guards.

Politicians should not be allowed armed guards, nor should they be supplied with bullet proof vests, armored cars @ taxpayer expense. There should be no armed guards for cash & securities vehicles. I think my life is worth more than a Brinks truck full of money is to me if I am dead.

Only law enforcement & criminals should have guns. Criminals have to have guns to justify law enforcement having them. It looks like law enforcement is soon to be banned too but I don’t really expect criminals to give up theirs.

I don’t mind Harris/Biden appointing Baby Beto gun czar if he has to personally collect guns to show his employees how it is done.

It does not look good for the future of the human race if the general population gets as dumb as all the collective elected, appointed, & hired government officials, workers have become.

The words in the 2nd amendment are the same words written by Tom Jefferson in 1798.

James Madison was the author of the 2nd amendment. In Federalist #46, Madison explained why citizens of a free society must have the right to bear arms.

I know, Blade. But it simply will never happen. It's quite impossible if you consider the semantics. It's the toothpaste back in the tube deal. There are WAY too many guns out there to try some foolish type of buy-back program or an even dumber attempt to "take" them. It would cost thousands of lives - mostly law enforcement officer's lives. You think they want to approach farmer John's house with the intent of taking his guns on a daily basis having no clue what to expect? Multiply farmer John times however many households have a gun. It's literally impossible. You are correct.... they may try. But that would quickly be realized by them what a terrible idea it was to try. No way they're EVER taking our guns away. That ship sailed off long ago. WAY too late.

The very best reason for private ownership of guns is this: If American Colonists had not been in possession of muskets and rifles in private ownership we would today have as our National Anthem, “God Save the Queen”, instead we sing “The Star Spangled Banner” and England stays on her side of the Atlantic Ocean.

That's why we have the National guard.

That's the dumbest post of the year! " Criminals have to have guns to justify law enforcement having them!"
Criminals will always have guns! Only the law-abiding will give them up. England, Canada, and others have tried this and it fails every time.
