The NRA is chomping at the bit to have George W. in the White House, and Handgun Control wants you to know it. “…A report…released
last year based on information from the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS)…
indicated that there may be a large number of dangerous, convicted felons in illegal
possession of firearms in Texas. These felons are at large and have not been prosecuted,
despite their having provided the state of Texas with their names, addresses, color photos,
fingerprints and certification of their proficiency in the use of handguns when they applied for
a license to carry a concealed handgun. The report shows that, despite Governor Bush’s
calls for tough enforcement of existing gun laws and more prosecutions of gun crimes, it is
the governor’s own support for the carrying of concealed weapons that has conclusively
demonstrated that Texan felons can continue to own guns.”
