Doc says: Too many don’t know the details of the “Waco Massacre”. I have a copy of the original coverage of that trvesty before it got the big news blackout. For someone concerned with gun-rights, it is very illuminating. First, let me identify myself as a Viet Nam veteran who saw heavy combat…please believe me that I know the distinctive sound of an operating M-2, (Ma Deuce), .50 cal. machine gun. After carefully listening to the entire debacle, I can inform you that no .50 was ever fired during the slaughter of those poor people. When it was over, Texas authorities were denied access to the site for two full days. Why? When finally to enter, Texas authorities were shown two burned up .50 cal. machine guns alledgedly owned and used by these “dangerous Branch Davidians”. I can solve the mystery of the audio track of the massacre never reveals the distinctive sound of this relatively slow rate of fire fully automatic weapon. Two days is the length of time it would take for the feds to requisition two .50s from an army arms room, place them on a stack of wooden pallets, burn them up, coll them off, transport them, and plant them at the scene of their crime! So, just like BK Campbell, I get sick every time I think of Waco, and what happened the last time liberals were “large and in charge”!!

Anna M. Tinsley should get her facts straight – Gov Perry said Suceeding wasn’t the answer but reaserting States Rights is! There is a difference. Do some more homework Ms. Tinsley.

Just try to take guns from Texans – not going to happen.

As we move closer to the new world order that the globlests envision for us, the idea of secession will become more remote and the idea of trying to keep our sovernty in the United States will move to the front.In the end we will not only lose our right to own guns, we will lose our right to govern ourselves. Sure we will still have the right to vote but it will mean nothing. Foreign Courts will make decision about our laws, and thoughs courts will not even be apart of our government. If anyone has read the Book 1984, they will know what I mean. Even Ben Franklin new what the normal course of events would be. When, after the signing of the Constitution, Ben Franklin’s wife asked Ben what kind of Government he had given us, Ben said: A Constitutional Republic if you can keep it. We couldn’t!

You can bet as soon as this law is passed Texas will be the biggest contributor new job creations anywhere in the country, along with a huge migration of new patriots a housing boom, non tarp local bank loans and a red white and blue respect for the lone star states resolve to exercise her right to bear arms protect its sovereignty and its citizens from anybody who dares to try and take freedoms many fought and died for.. Texas is a unique brand of people & although it took me a few years to get here, I finally made it and ill be here to fight the good fight when called, Hey DAN in Texas most Men Women & Children know how to handle a firearm Im assuming you don’t & just cause you don’t, don’t mean the rest of us are sheep.. ya’ll I hope they open a few new Gun Manufactures here in my area too! I need a new hunting rife. God Bless Texas!!!

Listening and reading, the one thing I’ve noticed of the second amendment is that some read it as a none stop line. What it says broken down:

A well regulated Militia,

being necessary to the security of a free State,

the right of the people to keep and bear Arms,

shall not be infringed.

If the State does elect to leave you can bet a lot of Texans that are elsewhere in the US will be going home in very short order.

You can take us out of Texas, but you can’t take Texas out of us.

Im not from Texas but I love that spirit !! If you secede, I will move done there. My favorite story is about a Liberal who said he couldn’t stand living in the Dallas area and left. They must be doing something right.

Monorprise Texas indeed has a rich history. I have no doubts that during the Waco seige, if allowed to any number of Texas law enforcment officals would have volunteered to walk up and knock on the door even after the shooting began and find a peaceful solution that everyone could accept. Koresh was not crazy just ahead of his time. I don’t wish to dig up bones I just know southeners and I know Texans and that whole fiasco could have been avoided if the Federal Govt and wanted it to be avoided. It still makes me sick to think about.
