Feel free, our gators have been getting rather hungry of late...

In Texas you can't legally take a gun to a drinking
establishment.


There are often reasons why you need to somewhere and taking
a gun is reasonable. But if all you want to do is proclaim
your "manliness" stay home. Many DAs will look up your
blog, public statements and take you to court because you
were "looking for trouble" and that will cost you $5-10,000
if the jury finds you innocent.

Only if they derive 51% of their revenue from the sale of alcohol... I
don't tend to go to those places these days... Usually, there is a
restaurant associated with it and as such, the 51% rule applies...

That's assuming that I'm stupid enough to stay around afterwards... Or
there's not a creek nearby with a friendly gator...

The 51% rule applies in Kansas too.

BTW, have you read Massod Ayoob's book IN THE GRAVEST
EXTREME ?

Nope... Seems like these days, all I get to read are some sort of
technical manuals or publications... Recreational reading for me of
late is reading the manual on a new GPS...

I can't even pronounce his name... :-)

Is it good? I did read Bill Jordan's book "No Second Place Winner."
Excellent read if you are so inclined.

I would have paid good money for a gun then.

How do you get your guns otherwise?
