As if it isn’t something that people didn’t already know, the great state of Texas is one of those states where you can freely exercise your Second Amendment rights and not have to worry about some liberal tossing a paper cup full of soy milk at you.
I haven’t spent a great deal of time in the Lone Star state, but I have had a good number of friends and family move there. I may very well join them soon enough.
I mean, Texas is absolutely massive. I like the idea that there is one state where you can live a whole lifetime in one state, never leave it, and not come close to exploring everything that the state has to offer.
Second of all, I like the fact that I can take my Ruger Security-380 into a grocery store and not have to worry about getting given the third degree by some liberal pain in the neck.
The proud support of the Second Amendment also means that down in Texas, if you are trying to harm someone or their property, you are quite literally putting your life in someone else’s hands.
For example, just in the month of June alone there have been so many stories of proud Texans exercising their Second Amendment rights in the defense of their property you could do a multi part documentary about them.
Like on June 16th, when a criminal in Longview, Texas broke into a home around one in the morning when the owner of the home was altered to his presence.
The owner of the home grabbed his gun, confronted the man and when he didn’t beat feat as was likely suggested, shot the intruder full of holes. The intruder later died at the hospital and police filed no charges against the owner of the home.
If it were me, the poor bastard would have been on the other end of my Smith & Wesson M&P Shield or my Savage 110 Ultralite, dependent on what room of the house I happened to be in at the time I heart broken glass.
You would think that there would be some sort of criminal alert system after someone gets shot trying to break into a house, but the very next day in Sherman, Texas someone else tried rolling the dice and came up snake eyes.
In this instance, an armed man tried breaking into a homeowners’s backyard shed. Now, this is where it just gets ludicrously strange. When the owner of the home confronted the man, the would be burglar went after him with a screwdriver.
Not the gun he came to the house with, but a screwdriver. Mama always said criminals were kinda dumb.
Anyway, the owner shot into the burglar who was later taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries and was charged with burglary.
These are just two of the litany of attempted burglaries that occurred in the great state of Texas over the course of a couple of weeks in the month of June.
With as few restrictions on gun ownership as they have in the state, you would think that some of these criminals would try to come up with something to do other than break into houses lest they be on the other side of the business end of a Glock 35 Gen3 and wind up another resident of the drum criminals list.
God Bless the state of Texas for seeing that for people to defend themselves that they need to be able to exercise their God given rights!
