In It to Win It

If Texas bans guns, are you moving or fighting for your rights?

Someone gave this rebuttal in a discussion about Kate Cox, the woman that sought a court order to obtain an abortion in Texas. I just thought it was such a great response.

I said imagine your state government fighting you every step of the way as you are trying to protect your health.

Someone responds with the typical "if she doesn't like it, she could move"

In response to that, another person chimes in "if Texas bans guns, are you moving or fighting for your rights?"


I thought that was such a great comeback.

More likely they will legally require people to own one...

Hey, that might be all the good---

There are a lot of politicians in Texas for whom a 'Second Amendment Solution'
might not be such a bad thing....
