If tweet fails to load, click here. Texas Democrats are filing a FLOOD of proposed bills that would TAKE AWAY gun rights for Americans.
Here's what's been filed so far:
HB 218 (Johnson): would create extreme-risk protective orders, including temporary orders issued without notice. A family or household member or a peace officer could apply if they allege the person has a serious mental illness and poses an immediate danger because of access to firearms. The person would have to turn over their guns within 24 hours; a full order would last up to a year and could be renewed. Possessing a gun in violation would be a Class A misdemeanor.
HB 173 (Moody): would make it a state jail felony to transfer a semiautomatic rifle that takes a detachable magazine and is larger than .22 caliber to anyone under 21, with exceptions for peace officers, current or honorably discharged military, and some temporary loans at a range or hunt.
HB 576 (Lalani): would bar registered sex offenders from buying a firearm, but only for registration based on an offense committed on or after Sept. 1, 2027.
HB 103 (Martinez): would expand the state crime of reckless discharge of a firearm so it also covers counties of 500,000 or more people, not just cities of 100,000 or more.
SB 80 (Zaffirini): would prohibit certain transfers, purchases, and possession of assault weapons and would create criminal offenses.
HB 606 (Lalani): would prohibit transferring firearms to, or the purchase or possession of firearms by, people under 21, and would create a criminal offense.
HB 610 (Lalani): would prohibit transferring firearms to certain recipients under 21.
HB 857 (Anchía): would prohibit transferring certain semiautomatic rifles to certain recipients under 21, and would create a criminal offense and increase a penalty.
HB 771 (Sethi): would prohibit transferring certain semiautomatic rifles to certain recipients, and would create a criminal offense and increase a penalty.
HB 806 (Reynolds): would prohibit transferring semiautomatic rifles to certain recipients and would increase a criminal penalty.
HB 613 (Lalani): would require a national instant criminal background check on private firearm transfers and would create a criminal offense.
HB 612 (Lalani): would prohibit a sex offender from possessing a firearm. (prob the only reasonable one)
HB 609 (Lalani): would increase the criminal penalty for making a firearm accessible to a child.
HB 658 (Moody): would change the prosecution and punishment of making a firearm accessible to a child and would increase a criminal penalty.
HB 618 (Moody): would restrict transferring firearm magazines to people who are prohibited from possessing the type of firearm the magazine is made for, and would create a criminal offense.
HB 659 (Moody): would require licensed firearms dealers to report certain sales or transfers of multiple firearms or magazines to law enforcement, and would create a criminal offense.
HB 660 (Moody): would require certain people already prohibited from owning or possessing a firearm to dispose of firearms they own, possess, or control.
HB 712 (Gámez): would address a city or county's authority to regulate or prohibit carrying a firearm in certain libraries.
HB 776 (Sethi): would address expulsion-related offenses involving possessing, carrying, exhibiting, or using a firearm on or within 1,000 feet of school property.
HB 859 (Anchía): would increase the criminal penalty for discharging a firearm in certain municipalities.

If Dems have taught Americans anything it is that Federal > State.
The 2nd amendment will ring true.

It is what the dems do. Americans should spend double that energy on gun use and ownership.

Rural sheriffs would have donations go through the roof in exchange for deputizing a bunch of new volunteer auxiliary deputies chomping at the bit to serve their community.

I wonder why that is. Hmmmm....
I'm still going to be getting a couple suppressors and maybe build an SBR before the Feds switch things back.

I was told here that they weren’t going after the guns.

So they will begin massive arrest operations in the Hood?
They want the patriot's guns, so they can do like Australia and the UK.
The Rednecks will go rogue. Seems like 'Waco' and 'Oklahoma City' would ring a bell. But I guess the youth don't even know about that. Not the whole truth anyway.

See here is the rub. This is subjective. They word it to where it sounds like something we could all get behind…then they’ll come out and say “all conservatives are mentally ill” and bam there you have it
