The extremist Tarrant Open Carry Group isn't holding back in their disappointment over the failure of radical legislation.
Ammosexuals Threaten To 'Hunt Down Republicans' Opposing Open Carry Bill
January 29, 2015

They're at it again down there in Texas! Here's a snippet from their angry Facebook entry posted after some Republican Senators demurred over proposed legislation to allow open carry of handguns.

Dan Patrick said there is not enough support in the Senate. What?!?!!? Not enough support for the Constitution? The job they swore to uphold? We have 20 Republican Senators. Are they listening to lobbyist and gun organizations who are pro money?.... or the people?

Well, it's time to hunt down the Republicans who don't support the Constitution and the Republican Platform. Then, we will expose them and help them find a new job by making sure they won't have a chance to ever get elected in Texas again. Time to start sending these people to California.

No thanks, guys. Republicans here in California are in a perpetual state of disarray. No need to add to it.

These guys are so crazy that the statewide Open Carry group, Open Carry Texas, has pushed away from any association with them.

TPM:

The same open carry group recently pushed the Texas legislature to allow lawmakers to install panic buttons in their offices after the organization confronted a Democratic Texas representative.

The leaders of Texas Open Carry have distanced themselves from the Tarrant County group. Texas Open Carry disapproves of the county group's decision to organize open carry rallies without notifying the police ahead of time.

Can you help us out?
